We appreciate any community contributions to this project, whether in the form of issues or Pull Requests.

This document outlines the we'd like you to follow in terms of commit messages and code style.

It also explains what to do in case you want to setup the project locally and run tests.

Setup

This project is written in ES2015 and transpiled to ES5 using Babel, to the dist directory. This should generally only happen at publishing time, or for testing purposes only.

Run npm install to install all necessary dependencies. When running npm install locally, dist is not compiled.

All necessary dependencies are installed under node_modules and any necessary tools can be accessed via npm scripts. There is no need to install anything globally.

When importing local, in develoment code, via index.js, this file checks if dist exists and uses that. Otherwise, it uses the code from lib.

If you have a dist directory, run npm run clean.

Axios, one of the main dependencies is vendored. This generally shouldn't matter, but if you'd like to understand why, check SETUP.md

Code style

This project uses standard. Install a relevant editor plugin if you'd like.

Everywhere where it isn't applicable, follow a style similar to the existing code.

Commit messages and issues

This project uses the Angular JS Commit Message Conventions, via semantic-release. See the semantic-release Default Commit Message Format section for more details.

Running tests

This project has unit and integration tests. Both of these run on both Node.js and Browser environments.

Both of these test environments are setup to deal with Babel and code transpiling, so there's no need to worry about that

  • npm test runs all three kinds of tests and generates a coverage report
  • npm run test:unit runs Node.js unit tests without coverage. npm run test:cover to run Node.js unit tests with coverage. npm run test:debug runs babel-node in debug mode (same as running node debug).
  • npm run test:integration runs the integration tests against the Contentful CDA API. Note: these are tricky to run locally since they currently run against a real contentful org. Focus on unit tests during development as integration tests will be run as part of CI/CD.
  • npm run test:browser runs both the unit and integration tests using Karma against local browsers.
  • npm run test:ci runs tests in CI
  • npm run test:browser-remote runs both the unit and integration tests using Karma against Sauce Labs. This is only usable in the CI environment, as it expects the credentials and connection tunnel to be present.

Documentation

Code is documented using Typedoc, and reference documentation is published automatically with each new version.

  • npm run docs:watch watches code directory, and rebuilds documentation when anything changes. Useful for documentation writing and development.
  • npm run docs:dev builds code and builds docs afterwards. Used by npm run docs:watch. Code building is required as the documentation is generated from the unminified ES5 compiled sources, rather than the original ES6 sources. You should then open the generated out/index.html in your browser.
  • npm run build:docs builds documentation.
  • npm run docs:publish builds documentation and publishes it to github pages.

Other tasks

  • npm run clean removes any built files
  • npm run build builds vendored files, node package and browser version
  • npm run build:dist builds ES5 sources from ES6 ones
  • npm run build:standalone builds unminified and minified sources for browsers
