Contributing to Juvix

Thank you for considering contributing to Juvix! We welcome all contributions, big or small, of any kind. We appreciate any help/feedback we can get.

Getting Started

Make sure you have followed the installation instructions and have a working Juvix installation. You can also use the web-based development environment ready to the Juvix development, Juvix Github Codespace

  1. Fork the repository.
  2. Clone your forked repository to your local machine.
  3. Install Stack if you haven't already.
  4. Build the project by running stack build. To build the project with optimizations, run stack build --fast. To install the binaries to your local ~/.local/bin, run stack install.
  5. Run the tests by running stack test.
  6. Make sure to install the pre-commit binary, so you can run the pre-commit hooks by running make precommit in the root directory of the project. All the Pull Requests will be checked by the pre-commit hooks.

Making Changes

  1. Create a new branch for your changes: git checkout -b my-branch-name. In case you are working on an issue, please name your branch after the issue number, e.g. issue-123.
  2. Make your changes and commit them with a descriptive message.
  3. Push your changes to your forked repository: git push origin my-branch-name.
  4. Submit a pull request to the main repository with a concise description of your changes.
  5. Make sure that your pull request passes all the tests and pre-commit hooks.

Haskell Code Style

We value readability and maintainability over saving lines of code. The best source of truth for the Juvix code style is the existing codebase. We strongly encourage you to look at the existing code and follow the same style. Open an issue if you have any questions, or better yet, join our Discord and ask there!

Some basic guidelines when writing code:

  • Use clear and descriptive names for variables, functions, and types.
  • Keep functions short and focused on a single task. Separate functions when they start to get too long.
  • Use comments to explain complex or non-obvious code.
  • Run make format to format your code with ormolu.

Testing

Please include tests for any new functionality or bug fixes. The tests are located in the test directory, the tests are written in Haskell and use the tasty framework. To run the tests, run stack test. If you are changing the CLI, please also update the smoke tests in the tests/smoke directory.

Code Review

All pull requests will be reviewed by at least one member of the development team. Feedback may be provided on the code itself, as well as on the tests and documentation.

Thank you for contributing to Juvix!
