## How Do I Contribute?
2017-05-14 10:14:32 +02:00
There are different ways to contribute, each comes with a different levels
of tasks, such as:
2017-05-14 10:14:32 +02:00
- Report a bug.
- Request a feature you think would be great for verdaccio.
- Fix bugs.
- Test and triage reported bugs by others.
- Work on requested/approved features.
- Improve the codebase (lint, naming, comments, test descriptions, etc...)
2017-05-14 10:14:32 +02:00
Verdaccio has several areas of involvement, which might fit you better, eg:
- **Core**: The [core](https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio) is the main repository, built with **Node.js**.
- **Website**: we uses **Gatsby.js** for the **website** and if you are familiar with this technology, you might become the official webmaster.
- **User Interface**: The [user Interface](https://github.com/verdaccio/ui) is based in **react** and **material-ui** and looking for front-end contributors.
- **Kubernetes and Helm**: Ts the official repository for the [**Helm chart**](https://github.com/verdaccio/charts).
> There are other areas to contribute, like documentation, translation which are not hosted on this repo but check the last section of this notes for further information.

## Development Setup
2017-05-12 00:39:07 +02:00
Verdaccio uses [_pnpm_](https://pnpm.js.org/) as package manager for development in this repository. Please install the latest one:
```
npm i -g pnpm
```
First step is installing all dependencies:
```
pnpm install
```
### Building the project
To build the project run
```
pnpm build
```
### Running test
```
pnpm test
```
Verdaccio is a mono repository, for running an specific test or package go the specific package eg:
```
cd packages/store
pnpm test
```
or an specific test in that package
```
pnpm test test/merge.dist.tags.spec.ts
```
or a single test unit
```
pnpm test test/merge.dist.tags.spec.ts -- -t 'simple'
```
The coverage is enabled by default, to speed up test running
```
pnpm test test/merge.dist.tags.spec.ts -- -t 'simple' --coverage=false
```
To increase debug output, we use `debug`, to enable it in your test just add
```
DEBUG=verdaccio* pnpm test
```
More details in the debug section
### Running and debugging
We uses [`debug`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/debug) for debug outcome. Each package has it owns namespace.
### Debugging compiled code
Currently you can only run in debug mode pre-compiled packages, to enable debug while running add the `verdaccio` namespace using the `DEBUG` environment variable, like this:
```
DEBUG=verdaccio:* node packages/verdaccio/debug/bootstrap.js
```
On this way can be reviewed every package, but if you need to filter out and display more specific output, increase the name space filter.
```
DEBUG=verdaccio:plugin:* node packages/verdaccio/debug/bootstrap.js
```
The debug code is intended to analyze what is happening under the hood and none of the output is gathered with the logger module.

### Submitting a Pull Request

Subsequent pull requests only need to follow step 3 and beyond.
2017-05-12 14:46:39 +02:00
1. Fork the repository on GitHub
2. Clone the forked repository to your machine
2018-03-10 17:30:56 +01:00
3. Make your changes and commit them to your local repository
4. Rebase and push your commits to your GitHub remote fork/repository
5. Issue a Pull Request to the official repository
6. Your Pull Request is reviewed by a committer and merged into the repository
2017-05-12 14:46:39 +02:00
**NOTE**: While there are other ways to accomplish the steps using other tools,
the examples here will assume most actions will be performed via `git` on
command line.
2017-05-12 14:46:39 +02:00
For more information on maintaining a fork, please see the GitHub Help article
titled [Fork a Repo](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/), and
information on [rebasing](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Branching-Rebasing).

### Make Changes and Commit
2017-05-12 14:46:39 +02:00
#### Caveats
Feel free to commit as much times you want in your branch, but keep on mind on this repository we `git squash` on merge by default, any other way is forbidden since we intent to have a clean git history.
#### Before Commit
2017-05-12 14:46:39 +02:00
Before committing, **you must ensure there are no linting errors and
all tests pass.**
2017-05-12 00:39:07 +02:00
To do this, run these commands before create the PR:
2017-05-12 00:39:07 +02:00
```bash
pnpm lint
pnpm format
pnpm build
pnpm test
2017-05-12 00:39:07 +02:00
```
> note: eslint and formatting are running separately, keep code formatting before push.
All good? perfect, then you should create the pull request.
2017-10-18 21:53:40 +02:00
#### Commit Guidelines
2017-10-18 21:53:40 +02:00
For example:
2017-10-18 21:53:40 +02:00
- `feat: A new feature`
- `fix: A bug fix`
A commit of the type feat introduces a new feature to the codebase
(this correlates with MINOR in semantic versioning).
e.g.:
2017-10-18 21:53:40 +02:00
```
feat: xxxxxxxxxx
```
2017-10-18 21:53:40 +02:00
A commit of the type fix patches a bug in your codebase (this correlates with PATCH in semantic versioning).
e.g.:
2017-10-18 21:53:40 +02:00
```
fix: xxxxxxxxxxx
```
Commits types such as as `docs:`,`style:`,`refactor:`,`perf:`,`test:`
and `chore:` are valid but have no effect on versioning. **It would be great if you use them.**
All commits message are going to be validated when they are created using husky hooks.
> Please, try to provide one single commit to help a clean and easy merge process.
### Adding a changeset
We use [changesets](https://github.com/atlassian/changesets) in order to generate a detailed Changelog as possible.
Add a changeset with your Pull Request is essential if you want your contribution get merged. To create a changeset please run:
```
pnpm changeset
```
Then select the packages you want to include in your changeset navigating through them and press the spacebar to check it, on finish press enter to move to the next step.
```
🦋 Which packages would you like to include? …
✔ changed packages
changed packages
@verdaccio/api
@verdaccio/auth
@verdaccio/cli
@verdaccio/config
@verdaccio/commons-api
```
The next question would be if you want a _major bump_, this is not the usual scenario, most likely would be a patch, in that case press enter 2 times (to skip minor)
```
🦋 Which packages should have a major bump? …
✔ all packages
@verdaccio/config@5.0.0-alpha.0
```
Once the desired bump you need, the CLI will ask for a summary, here you have fully freedom what to include.
```
🦋 Which packages would you like to include? · @verdaccio/config
🦋 Which packages should have a major bump? · No items were selected
🦋 Which packages should have a minor bump? · No items were selected
🦋 The following packages will be patch bumped:
🦋 @verdaccio/config@5.0.0-alpha.0
🦋 Please enter a summary for this change (this will be in the changelogs). Submit empty line to open external editor
🦋 Summary
```
The last step is confirm your changeset or abort the operation.
```
🦋 Is this your desired changeset? (Y/n) · true
🦋 Changeset added! - you can now commit it
🦋
🦋 If you want to modify or expand on the changeset summary, you can find it here
🦋 info /Users/user/verdaccio.clone/.changeset/light-scissors-smell.md
```
Once the changeset is added (all will have an unique name) you can freely edit using markdown, adding additional information, code snippets or what you consider is relevant.
All that information will be part of the **changelog**, be concise but informative. It is considered a good option to add your nickname and GitHub link to your profile.
**PRs that do not follow the commit message guidelines will not be merged.**
2017-10-18 21:53:40 +02:00
### Update Tests
2017-10-18 21:53:40 +02:00
**Any change in source code must include test updates**.
2017-10-18 21:53:40 +02:00
If you need help with how testing works, please [refer to the following guide](https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio/wiki/Running-and-Debugging-tests).
2017-05-12 14:46:39 +02:00
**If you are introducing new features, you MUST include new tests. PRs for
features without tests will not be merged.**
2017-05-12 14:46:39 +02:00
## Develop Plugins
2017-05-12 14:46:39 +02:00
Plugins are add-ons that extend the functionality of the application.
2017-05-12 00:39:07 +02:00
If you want to develop your own plugin:
1. Check whether there is a legacy Sinopia plugin for the feature that you need
via [npmjs](https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=sinopia)
2. Keep in mind the [life-cycle to load a plugin](https://verdaccio.org/docs/en/dev-plugins)
3. You are free to host your plugin in your repository
4. Provide a detailed description of your plugin to help users understand how to use it.
