eng: Joyent Engineering Guide

This repo serves two purposes: (1) It defines the guidelines and best practices for Joyent engineering work (this is the primary goal), and (2) it also provides boilerplate for a Triton (formerly known as SDC) project repo, giving you a starting point for many of the suggestion practices defined in the guidelines. This is especially true for node.js-based REST API projects.

You probably want to be looking at the actual Joyent engineering guide at docs/index.md. This README.md is a template for repos to use.

If you have cloned this repo to start a new project

Remove all eng guide blurb above, and use one of the following boilerplates as the first paragraph of the introduction of your repo:

For Triton-related repos:

    This repository is part of the Joyent Triton project. See the [contribution
    guidelines](https://github.com/joyent/triton/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
    and general documentation at the main
    [Triton project](https://github.com/joyent/triton) page.

For Manta-related repos:

    This repository is part of the Joyent Manta project.  For contribution
    guidelines, issues, and general documentation, visit the main
    [Manta](http://github.com/joyent/manta) project page.

After the boilerplate paragraph, write a brief description about your repo.

Development

To ensure maximum compatibility, release builds are performed on a build zone that is old enough to allow new and updated components to run on all supported platform images. If you are not using the Joyent Jenkins instance for performing builds, you should build using an appropriate build zone. See Build Zone Setup for Manta and Triton.

Describe steps necessary for development here.

Test

Documentation

Joyent Engineering Guide is at docs/index.md.

To update the guidelines, edit "docs/index.md" and run make docs to update "docs/index.html". Works on either SmartOS or Mac OS X.
