How To Contribute

Requirements

Forking & cloning the repository

  • Ensure all the dependencies described in the previous section are installed.
  • Fork https://github.com/invertase/globe into your own GitHub account. If you already have a fork, and are now installing a development environment on a new machine, make sure you've updated your fork so that you don't use stale configuration options from long ago.
  • git clone [email protected]:<your_name_here>/globe.git
  • git remote add upstream [email protected]:invertase/globe.git (So that you fetch from the main repository, not your clone, when running git fetch or git pull

Local development setup

This repository uses a tool called Melos to manage packages and dependencies, to set it up, run the following command from your terminal:

dart pub global activate melos

Next, at the root of your locally cloned repository bootstrap the projects dependencies:

melos bootstrap

The bootstrap command locally links all dependencies within the project without having to provide manual dependency_overrides. This allows all plugins, examples and tests to build from the local clone project. You should only need to run this command once.

You do not need to run dart pub get once bootstrap has been completed.

To activate the Globe CLI for local development, run the following command inside the package directory:

dart pub global activate --source="path" . --executable="globe"

Performing changes

  • Create a new local branch from main (e.g. git checkout -b my-new-feature)
  • Make your changes (try to split them up with one PR per feature/fix).
  • When committing your changes, make sure that each commit message is clear (e.g. git commit -m 'docs: Add CONTRIBUTING.md').
  • Push your new branch to your own fork into the same remote branch (e.g. git push origin my-username.my-new-feature, replace origin if you use another remote.)

Publishing changes

  1. Switch to main branch locally.
  2. Run git pull origin main.
  3. Run git pull --tags to make sure all tags are fetched.
  4. Run melos version to automatically version packages and update Changelogs.
  5. Run melos publish to dry run and confirm all packages are publishable.
  6. Run melos publish --no-dry-run
  7. Run git push --follow-tags to ensure the release is pushed to GitHub.
