# Development - Contributing

First, you might want to see the basic ways to [help FastAPI and get help](help-fastapi.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

## Developing

If you already cloned the <a href="https://github.com/fastapi/fastapi" class="external-link" target="_blank">fastapi repository</a> and you want to deep dive in the code, here are some guidelines to set up your environment.

### Virtual environment

func (m metaCacheEntries) isSorted() bool {
	return sort.SliceIsSorted(m, m.less)
}

// shallowClone will create a shallow clone of the array objects,
// but object metadata will not be cloned.
func (m metaCacheEntries) shallowClone() metaCacheEntries {
	dst := make(metaCacheEntries, len(m))
	copy(dst, m)
	return dst
}

type metadataResolutionParams struct {

		if err != nil {
			encLogIf(GlobalContext, err)
			return nil
		}
		data = decrypted
	}
	return data
}

// Clone - Returns a cloned copy of current objectInfo
func (o *ObjectInfo) Clone() (cinfo ObjectInfo) {
	cinfo = ObjectInfo{
		Bucket:                     o.Bucket,
		Name:                       o.Name,
		ModTime:                    o.ModTime,

	}

	var resultClone Product2
	if err := DB.First(&resultClone, "name = ?", "Nice_clone").Error; err != nil {
		t.Fatalf("Failed to find cloned product, got error: %v", err)
	}

	result.Price *= 2
	result.Name += "_clone"
	AssertObjEqual(t, result, resultClone, "Price", "Name")

	DB.Model(&result).Update("Price", 500)
	var result2 Product2
	DB.First(&result2, "name = ?", "Nice")

          case 0:
            return first;
          case 1:
            return second;
          default:
            return rest[index - 2];
        }
      }
    };
  }
