Contributing to Akita

馃檹 We would 鉂わ笍 for you to contribute to Akita and help make it even better than it is today!

Getting Started

  • Make sure you have yarn installed.
  • Akita is a monorepo built using Nx workspace.
    • Optionally you can install @nrwl/cli (yarn global add @nrwl/cli), otherwise you can just run the NPM scripts provided, see package.json.

Developing

Start by installing all dependencies:

yarn install

Run the tests:

yarn test:all

or for a single yarn test:lib:[library]

yarn test:lib:akita-ng-entity-service

Run the playground apps via yarn serve:app:[app-name]

yarn serve:app:angular:akita-store-app

NOTE you must build the libraries (once) before you can serve them in an app.

Building

Build everything (libs & apps)

yarn build:all

Build all apps

yarn build:apps

or build a single app yarn build:app:angular:[app-name]

yarn build:app:angular:akita-store-app

Build all libs

yarn build:libs

or build a single library yarn build:lib:[library]

yarn build:lib:akita-ng-entity-service

these will create a build in the dist/ directory.

The playground applications are linked directly to the source files, making it easy to debug the code.

NOTE you must build the libs (once) before using them in an app or in another library. You must also build them in the their dependency order. However you can build with the --with-deps argument, and that should take care of it.

Coding Rules

To ensure consistency throughout the source code, keep these rules in mind as you are working:

  • All features or bug fixes must be tested by one or more specs (unit-tests).
  • All public API methods must be documented.

Commit Message Guidelines

We have very precise rules over how our git commit messages can be formatted. This leads to more readable messages that are easy to follow when looking through the project history. But also, we use the git commit messages to generate the Akita changelog.

Commit Message Format

Each commit message consists of a header, a body and a footer. The header has a special format that includes a type, a scope and a subject:

<type>(<scope>): <subject>
<BLANK LINE>
<body>
<BLANK LINE>
<footer>

The header is mandatory and the scope of the header is optional.

Any line of the commit message cannot be longer 100 characters! This allows the message to be easier to read on GitHub as well as in various git tools.

The footer should contain a closing reference to an issue if any.

Samples: (even more samples)

docs(changelog): update changelog to beta.5

fix(release): need to depend on latest rxjs and zone.js

The version in our package.json gets copied to the one we publish, and users need the latest of these.
