- and of course, the issues list
You can file issues here on GitHub. Please try to include as much information as you can and under what conditions you saw the issue.
Patches should be submitted as pull requests (PR).
Before submitting a PR:
- Your code must run and pass all the automated tests before you submit your PR for review. "Work in progress" pull requests are allowed to be submitted, but should be clearly labeled as such and should not be merged until all tests pass and the code has been reviews.
- Run
grunt jshint
to make sure your code passes linting. - Run
npm test
to make sure all tests still pass.
- Run
- Your patch should include new tests that cover your changes. It is your and your reviewer's responsibility to ensure your patch includes adequate tests.
When submitting a PR:
- You agree to license your code under the project's open source license (MPL 2.0).
- Base your branch off the current
master
(see below for an example workflow). - Add both your code and new tests if relevant.
- Run
grunt jshint
andnpm test
to make sure your code passes linting and tests. - Please do not include merge commits in pull requests; include only commits with the new relevant code.
See the main README.md for information on prerequisites, installing, running and testing.
This project is production Mozilla code and subject to our engineering practices and quality standards. Every patch must be peer reviewed. This project is part of the Firefox Accounts module, and your patch must be reviewed by one of the listed module owners or peers.
Note: Java is required to build the library due to a custom SJCL build.
npm run-script setup
npm start
The build
directory should have fxa-client.js
and fxa-client.min.js
.
grunt build
- builds the regular and minified version of the library
grunt dev
- builds the library, runs jshint, shows library size, runs tests, watches for changes
grunt debug
- builds the regular library, runs test, watches for changes. Helpful when you are debugging.
grunt release
- will prepare a new release of this library with the version in package.json
.
It will create or update the repositories in build
and docs
. If the version in package.json
has not changed,
then the tagging will be skipped.
Currently SJCL is built with ./configure --without-random --without-ocb2 --without-gcm --without-ccm
.
Adjust this if you need other SJCL features.
This library uses The Intern testing framework.
npm test
- run local tests via Node.js
npm run test-local
- run the tests against the local fxa-auth-server
grunt intern:browser
- Locally run tests in Selenium (Requires java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.37.0.jar
).
grunt intern:sauce
- Run tests on SauceLabs.
We loosely follow the Angular commit guidelines of <type>(<scope>): <subject>
where type
must be one of:
- feat: A new feature
- fix: A bug fix
- docs: Documentation only changes
- style: Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc)
- refactor: A code change that neither fixes a bug or adds a feature
- perf: A code change that improves performance
- test: Adding missing tests
- chore: Changes to the build process or auxiliary tools and libraries such as documentation generation
Running grunt doc
will create a docs
directory, browse the documentation by opening docs/index.html
.
Write documentation using YUIDoc Syntax.
