Developing for esprint

In order to use esprint in your project, clone the repository and install all of the dependencies.

$ git clone https://github.com/pinterest/esprint.git && cd esprint
$ yarn

In the esprint repo, run yarn link, and in your project that uses ESprint, run yarn link esprint. (Note: yarn link is only supported by yarn version 0.26 and later.)

After that, run yarn run deps /path/to/project/ so that esprint installs all eslint-related dependencies.

In a separate tab, you can also run npm start. This starts up babel-watcher, which will compile your JavaScript.

Then, run esprint directly from your node_modules folder like so:

$ node ./node_modules/esprint/build/cli.js [opts]

Writing Tests

We encourage every contributor who writes a critical fix or a new feature to write an accompanying test. We've tried to make getting set-up and writing tests as easy as possible.

To start, from the root of the project, run yarn run create-test [test-name], where [test-name] is the feature you're going to be testing. For naming examples, check out the tests/ directory. This command sets up all the necessary files and fixtures that you need to start writing tests.

For our test-runner/framework, we use Jest. For examples of how we expect tests to run, take a look at the tests that we have in place. These should serve as a good baseline for writing new tests.

Once you're done writing your test(s), run yarn run test and ensure that all tests pass locally before submitting your PR.
