When contributing to WellChart
, whether on GitHub or in other community spaces:
- Be respectful, civil, and open-minded.
- Before opening a new pull request, try searching through the issue tracker for known issues or fixes.
- If you want to make code changes based on your personal opinion(s), make sure you open an issue first describing the changes you want to make, and open a pull request only when your suggestions get approved by maintainers.
To not waste your time implementing a change that has already been declined, or is generally not needed, start by opening an issue describing the problem you would like to solve.
Some commands will assume you have the Github CLI installed, if you haven't, consider installing it, but you can always use the Web UI if you prefer that instead.
To contribute to this project, you will need to fork the repository:
gh repo fork trevorpfiz/wellchart
then, clone it to your local machine:
gh repo clone <your-github-name>/canvas-fhir
This project uses pnpm as its package manager. Install it if you haven't already:
npm install -g pnpm
Then, install the project's dependencies:
pnpm install
This project is a Turborepo monorepo. The code for the CLI is in the cli
directory, and the docs is in the www
directory. Now you're all setup and can start implementing your changes.
Here are some useful scripts for when you are developing:
Command | Description |
---|---|
pnpm dev:cli |
Builds and starts the CLI in watch-mode |
pnpm dev:www |
Starts the development server for the docs with HMR |
pnpm build:cli |
Builds the CLI |
pnpm build:www |
Builds the docs |
pnpm build |
Builds CLI and docs |
pnpm format |
Formats the code |
pnpm lint |
Lints the code |
pnpm lint:fix |
Lints the code and fixes any errors |
pnpm check |
Checks your code for typeerrors, formatting and linting |
When making commits, make sure to follow the conventional commit guidelines, i.e. prepending the message with feat:
, fix:
, chore:
, docs:
, etc... You can use git status
to double check which files have not yet been staged for commit:
git add <file> && git commit -m "feat/fix/chore/docs: commit message"
Check that your code follows the project's style guidelines by running:
pnpm check
Please also make a manual, functional test of your changes.
If your change should appear in the changelog, i.e. it changes some behavior of either the CLI or the outputted application, it must be captured by changeset
which is done by running
pnpm changeset
and filling out the form with the appropriate information. Then, add the generated changeset to git:
git add .changeset/*.md && git commit -m "chore: add changeset"
When all that's done, it's time to file a pull request to upstream:
gh pr create --web
and fill out the title and body appropriately. Again, make sure to follow the conventional commit guidelines for your title.
