These are mostly guidelines, not rules. Use your best judgement, and feel free to propose changes to this document in a pull request. - ## Developer Experience Continuous Delivery is core to our development philosophy. Check out [https://minimumcd.org](https://minimumcd.org/) for a good baseline agreement on what that means. Specifically: -- We do trunk-based development with short-lived feature branches that originate from the trunk, get merged to the trunk, and are deleted after the merge -- We don't merge code into the trunk that isn't releasable -- We perform automated testing on all changes before they get merged to the trunk +- We do trunk-based development (`main`) with short-lived feature branches that originate from the trunk, get merged to the trunk, and are deleted after the merge +- We don't merge code into `main` that isn't releasable +- We perform automated testing on all changes before they get merged to `main` - We create immutable release artifacts ### Developer Workflow -Here's what a typical "day in the life" of a Zarf developer might look like. Keep in mind that other than things that are required through automation these aren't hard-and-fast rules. When in doubt, the process outlined here works for us. - :key: == Required by automation -1. Pick an outstanding issue to work on, set yourself as the assignee, and move it to "Doing Now" in the [Kanban Board](https://github.com/orgs/defenseunicorns/projects/1). The "Ready to Start" and "Planned" columns are mostly prioritized (rank order) according to feedback from our users and other inputs, but don't feel like you have to pick from the top of the pile if something else is jumping out at you. -1. Write up a rough outline of what you plan to do in the issue so you can get early feedback. Clearly announce any breaking changes you think need to be made. +1. Look at the next due [release milestone](https://github.com/defenseunicorns/zarf/milestones) and pick an issue that you want to work on. If you don't see anything that interests you, create an issue and assign it to yourself. + +1. Assign yourself to the issue and drop a comment in the issue to let everyone know you're working on it. + 1. :key: Set up your Git config to GPG sign all commits. [Here's some documentation on how to set it up](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/managing-commit-signature-verification/signing-commits). You won't be able to merge your PR if you have any unverified commits. - > ⚠️ **NOTE:** *If you are an external third-party contributor you will need a core-member of the zarf project to re-sign your commits; you will still receive authorship for the work you have contributed however.* +1. Create a Draft Pull Request as soon as you are able to, even if it is just 5 minutes after you started working on it. We lean towards working in the open as much as we can. If you're not sure what to put in the PR description, just put a link to the issue you're working on. If you're not sure what to put in the PR title, just put "WIP" (Work In Progress) and we'll help you out with the rest. -1. :key: Create a branch off the trunk, or a fork if you are an external contributor. -1. Create a Draft Pull Request as soon as you are able to, even if it is just 5 minutes after you started working on it. Around here we aren't afraid to show unfinished work. It helps us get feedback more quickly. -1. :key: Create a Pull Request (or mark it Ready for Review if you've been working in a Draft PR). -1. :key: Automated tests will begin based on the paths you have edited in your Pull Request. More information on these tests can be found [here](https://docs.zarf.dev/docs/developer-guide/testing). -1. Clearly announce any breaking changes that have been made. -1. :key: Get at least 1 peer-review approval. -1. :key: Merge the PR into the trunk. We tend to prefer "Squash and Merge" but if your commits are on-point and you want to preserve them in the Git history of the trunk that's fine too. -1. Delete the branch -1. Close the issue if it got fully resolved by your PR. *Hint: You can add "Fixes #XX" to the PR description to automatically close an issue when the PR is merged.* +1. :key: Automated tests will begin based on the paths you have edited in your Pull Request. More information on these tests can be found [here](https://docs.zarf.dev/docs/developer-guide/testing). -## Testing + > ⚠️ **NOTE:** _If you are an external third-party contributor, the pipelines won't run until a [CODEOWNER](https://github.com/defenseunicorns/zarf/blob/main/CODEOWNERS) approves the pipeline run._ -This section dives deeper into how we test Zarf +1. :key: Be sure to use the [needs-adr,needs-docs,needs-tests](https://github.com/defenseunicorns/zarf/labels?q=needs) labels as appropriate for the PR. Once you have addressed all of the needs, remove the label. -### Pre-Commit Hooks and Linting +1. Once review is complete and approved, a core-member of the zarf project will merge your PR. If you are an external third-party contributor, two core-members of the zarf project will be required to approve the PR. -In this repo we use [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) hooks for automated validation and linting. The CI pipeline will (eventually) validate that all of the hooks pass so we strongly recommend that you install the hooks locally or you'll be spending a lot of time manually fixing issues that could be fixed automatically very quickly. +1. Close the issue if it is fully resolved by your PR. _Hint: You can add "Fixes #XX" to the PR description to automatically close an issue when the PR is merged._ -#### Pre-Commit Prerequisites +## Testing + +This section dives deeper into how we test Zarf -1. Install [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) -1. Install [go](https://golang.org/) -1. Run `pre-commit install` in the repo to install the pre-commit hooks. This will make the hooks run automatically each time you `git commit`. If you want to skip the hooks for any reason you can run `git commit --no-verify` to skip them. +### (Optional) Pre-Commit Hooks and Linting -> ℹ️ **HINT:** *Consider [automatically enabling the hooks in every Git repository](https://pre-commit.com/#automatically-enabling-pre-commit-on-repositories)* +In this repo you can optinally use [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) hooks for automated validation and linting, but if not CI will run these checks for you. ### Code Testing -Our E2E tests can be found in the `/test` folder and follow the journey of someone as they would use the Zarf CLI. In CI these tests run against our currently supported cluster distros, and are the primary way that Zarf code is tested. +Our E2E tests can be found in the `/test` folder and follow the journey of someone as they would use the Zarf CLI.

It is strongly recommended to run the tests locally first as documented in the link above.* - ## Documentation -In this section you'll find documentation on documentation! Pun absolutely intended :smile: - ### Architecture Decision Records (ADR) We've chosen to use ADRs to document architecturally significant decisions. We primarily use the guidance found in [this article by Michael Nygard](http://thinkrelevance.com/blog/2011/11/15/documenting-architecture-decisions) with a couple of tweaks:
