Contributing

We want this community to be friendly and respectful to each other. Please follow it in all your interactions with the project.

Development Workflow

This plugin provides a local development instance of Strapi to develop it's features. We call this instance playground and it can be found in the playground folder in the root of the project. For that reason it is not needed to have your own Strapi instance running to work on this plugin. Just clone the repo and you're ready to go!

1. Fork the repository

Go to the repository and fork it to your own GitHub account.

2. Clone the forked repository

git clone git@github.com:YOUR_USERNAME/strapi-webtools.git

3. Install the dependencies

Go to the folder and install the dependencies

cd strapi-webtools && yarn install

4. Install the playground dependencies

Run this in the root of the repository

yarn playground:install

5. Run the compiler of the plugin

As the plugin is written using Typescript you will have to run the typescript compiler during development. Run the following command:

yarn develop

6. Start the playground instance

Leave the typescript compiler running, open up a new terminal window and browse back to the root of the plugin repo. Run the following command:

yarn playground:develop

This will start the playground instance that will have the plugin installed by default. Browse to http://localhost:1337 and create a test admin user to log in to the playground.

7. Start your contribution!

You can now start working on your contribution. If you had trouble setting up this testing environment please feel free to report an issue on Github.

Commit message convention

We follow the conventional commits specification for our commit messages:

  • fix: bug fixes, e.g. fix crash due to deprecated method.
  • feat: new features, e.g. add new method to the module.
  • refactor: code refactor, e.g. migrate from class components to hooks.
  • docs: changes into documentation, e.g. add usage example for the module..
  • test: adding or updating tests, eg add integration tests using detox.
  • chore: tooling changes, e.g. change CI config.

Linting and tests

ESLint

We use ESLint for linting and formatting the code, and Jest for testing.

Scripts

The package.json file contains various scripts for common tasks:

  • yarn eslint: lint files with ESLint.
  • yarn eslint:fix: auto-fix ESLint issues.
  • yarn test:integration: run integration tests with Jest.

When you're sending a pull request:

  • Prefer small pull requests focused on one change.
  • Verify that linters and tests are passing.
  • Review the documentation to make sure it looks good.
  • Follow the pull request template when opening a pull request.
  • For pull requests that change the API or implementation, discuss with maintainers first by opening an issue.
