Want to help improve Any-DB? You're in the right place.
To get started, clone this git repo and run make dev_deps. This will symlink
all of the sub-packages into place in your local directory and then install any
remaining dependencies from npm. This is important because it means that you can
be sure that tests will be run against the code in source-control, and not
packages installed from the npm registry.
After you've run make dev_deps you can run make test to run the tests. The
tests require that both a MySQL and Postgres server are available and
accessible at the Any-DB URLs defined by the environment variable
any_db_mysql_test_url and any_db_postgres_test_url. If these env variables
are undefined or empty, the default values of
mysql://root@localhost/any_db_test and
postgres://postgres@localhost/any_db_test will be used.
If you wish to disable testing of a particular backend for a test run, you can
define the environment variable any_db_test_drivers to a comma separated list
of driver names.
For changes to an existing API please open an issue to discuss the proposed change before implementing it. Code-first-ask-questions-later is fun, but I'd really hate for anybody to put their time into something that won't be merged.
I'm not terribly picky about code-formatting, but please try to avoid mixing tabs and spaces, and keep lines under 80 characters long if you can help it.
If a patch you're working on is getting hairy, don't be afraid to refactor existing code.
