This document provides some basic guidelines for contributing to this repository. To propose improvements, feel free to submit a PR or open an Issue.
Note: Datadog requires that all commits within this repository must be signed, including those within external contribution PRs. Please ensure you have followed GitHub's Signing Commits guide before proposing a contribution. PRs lacking signed commits will not be processed and may be rejected.

You may submit a bug report concerning the Datadog Plugin for Flutter by opening a GitHub Issue. Use appropriate template and provide all listed details to help us resolve the issue.
Make sure you have installed the Flutter
SDK, and that flutter doctor
passes without issues.
The Datadog packages use Melos to manage the complexities of the monorepo. To start with the repo, run the following command:
dart pub global activate melos
Next, at the root of the repository, bootstrap melos:
melos bootstrap
Next, we need to generate some necessary files with flutter pub run build_runner build
,
and generate .env
files for the various apps in order to use them with
Datadog. We use Melos for this as well. Run:
melos prepare
Running melos prepare
creates .env
files in the various example application,
which should be modified with your Client Id and Application Id from the Datadog
RUM setup. Alternately, it can pull this information from the environment
variables DD_CLIENT_TOKEN
and DD_APPLICATION_ID
for most test apps, and
DD_E2E_CLIENT_TOKEN
and DD_E2E_APPLICATION_ID
for the e2e test application.
If you need to switch environments frequently, you can use melos generate_env
to
only generate the environment files, without re-running other prepare steps.
Code style is enforced with the following libraries in the following languages:
- Flutter - we use the included Flutter analyzer and linter. If you can, set up your IDE to format your Dart files on save, which will keep you in conformance with the linter
- iOS / Swift - Swiftlint is configured to
run as part of the build in XCode. If you want Swiftlint to autoformat your
files for you and fix any potential errors, run
swiftlint --fix
- Android / Kotlin - We have both ktlint and detekt set up for static analysis and linting.
Before submitting a PR, you can run all of these steps, as well as all
integration tests, by running the ./preflight.sh
script in the root of the
repo. Using this script requires you have both
Swiftlint and Bitrise
CLI available on your path
There are three types of tests in this repo
- Unit Tests (held in
test
) - These tests mostly check the logic of the platform_channel interfaces. - Integration Tests (
integration_test_app/integration_test
) - These tests check that that calls to the SDK are sent to a mock server and match our expectations for the data that is getting sent to DataDog. - E2E tests (held in
e2e_test_app/integration_test
) - These tests are still in progress, but they report information back to the Integration environment at Datadog, measuring that we send the correct number of events and monitor the performance of the SDK.
Any new PR must at least include unit tests, and hopefully include changes to (or new tests) in the corresponding integration tests.
