Contributing to komorebi-recorder

The project is a collection of contributions from both the project leaders and community members. There are many ways to contribute, this can include content in the project repositories, as well as contributing in public and private conversation, assisting users, writing blog posts, and many other ways.

How contributions are made

Contributions to the project primarily happen in the project source repositories, but may also occur in other places, such as discussion forums and public and private discourse.

Contributing content to the Project

In order for the project leaders to manage sustained progress toward the project goals and maintain project velocity, focus and quality, the project may adjust the license terms over time.

Content contributed to the project must therefore be provided under sufficiently liberal terms to allow these operations to proceed unimpeded. As such contributions are accepted with the following understanding:

  • Contributed content is licensed under the terms of the 0-BSD license
  • Contributors accept the terms of the project license at the time of contribution

By making a contribution, you accept both the current project license terms, and that all contributions that you have made are provided under the terms of the 0-BSD license.

Development environment

The recorder is built in the komorebi repository, with Nix. nix develop provides the Rust toolchain with nightly rustfmt, cargo-deny, cargo-nextest, ffmpeg, jq, just, resvg and ripgrep, and on Linux the GStreamer libraries. The recorder indexes the log statements of the komorebi source around it (komorebi-recorder/build.rs), so the tests that read it need no setting: KOMOREBI_SRC and KOMOREBI_COMMIT are only for a build outside a checkout (nix).

The default nix develop shell cross-compiles for x86_64-pc-windows-msvc, which type-checks the Windows code from a Mac or Linux machine (just drops that target for the native recipes). nix develop .#native leaves the target out. Nothing there runs the Windows code: a change to a cfg(windows) line is first run by the Windows workflow in CI. On a Windows machine, the steps in windows-checkpoints.md say what to run and what to look for.

The icon is komorebi-recorder/assets/watermelon.svg. After changing it, run just icon to render the PNG that the windows set and the ICO that Windows embeds, and commit the three together.

Checks

Before pushing, run

just fmt
just lint
nix build -L .#checkSets.recorder-lint .#checkSets.recorder-test .#checkSets.fmt .#checkSets.deny

which formats, runs the macros the codebase does not allow, and runs clippy and the tests of the recorder, the format checks and cargo deny of the workspace. just --list shows the other recipes.

Commits

Commit messages follow Conventional Commits, as the pull request template asks: the release notes are generated from them.

A change that alters what the documentation says (the rustdoc, the README, docs/) updates the documentation in the same commit, so that the documentation never describes code that is not there.
