  • Create a Pull Request: Submit your changes for review.

Tip

Discuss your change in the issue before developing the solution when the design is not predefined. This will help speedup the actual pull request review.

Pull Request Process

  • Ensure your code adheres to the project's coding standards, we use automated tooling for that, try pixi run lint.
  • Document new code using the Rust docstrings like we do in most places.

Tips while developing on pixi

Pixi is a pixi project so use a preinstalled pixi to run the predefined tasks

pixi run build
pixi run lint
pixi run test
pixi run test-all
pixi run install # only works on unix systems as on windows you can't overwrite the binary while it's running

Get your code ready for a PR

We use pre-commit to run all the formatters and linters that we use. If you have pre-commit installed on your system you can run pre-commit install to run the tools before you commit or push. If you don't have it on your system either use pixi global install pre-commit or use the one in your environment.

pixi run lint

When you commit your code, please try to come up with a good commit message. The maintainers (try to) use conventional-commits.

git add FILES_YOU_CHANGED
# This is the conventional commit convention:
git commit -m "<type>[optional scope]: <description>"
# An example:
git commit -m "feat: add xxx to the pixi.toml"

Color decisions in the ui code

We use the console::style function to colorize the output of the ui.

use console::style;
println!("{} {}", style("Hello").green(), style("world").red());

To sync the colors of the different parts of the ui, we use the following rules:

  • style("environment").magenta(): The environment name
  • style("feature").cyan(): The feature name
  • style("task").blue(): The task name

These styles are put in the consts module or are a .fancy_display() on the names. If you want to add a new generic color, please add it there.
