Contributing

This project welcomes contributions and suggestions. Most contributions require you to agree to a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) declaring that you have the right to, and actually do, grant us the rights to use your contribution. For details, visit https://cla.microsoft.com.

When you submit a pull request, a CLA-bot will automatically determine whether you need to provide a CLA and decorate the PR appropriately (e.g., label, comment). Simply follow the instructions provided by the bot. You will only need to do this once across all repositories using our CLA.

This project has adopted the Microsoft Open Source Code of Conduct. For more information see the Code of Conduct FAQ or contact opencode@microsoft.com with any additional questions or comments.

Following our coding conventions

We format all our code using the coding conventions in the citus_indent tool. This tool uses uncrustify under the hood.

# Uncrustify changes the way it formats code every release a bit. To make sure
# everyone formats consistently we use version 0.68.1:
curl -L https://github.com/uncrustify/uncrustify/archive/uncrustify-0.68.1.tar.gz | tar xz
cd uncrustify-uncrustify-0.68.1/
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j5
sudo make install
cd ../..

git clone https://github.com/citusdata/tools.git
cd tools
make uncrustify/.install

After installing like this you can run the following before committing:

citus_indent

You can also run the following to automatically format all the files that you have changed before committing.

cat > .git/hooks/pre-commit << __EOF__
#!/bin/bash
citus_indent --check --diff || { citus_indent --diff; exit 1; }
__EOF__
chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-commit

Producing the documentation diagrams

The diagrams are TikZ sources, which means they're edited with your usual editor tooling. The diagrams are actually code, and the compilation tool chain involves the following software:

  • LuaTex
  • TikZ
  • pdftocairo, found in the poppler software

Current TeX distributions should include luatex and tikz for you already. One such distribution is TexLive and is widely available.

For Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install latexmk texlive texlive-luatex texlive-latex-extra poppler-utils
