Contributing to Dragonfly Console

It is warmly welcomed if you have the interest to hack on Dragonfly Console. First, we encourage this kind of willingness very much. And here is a list of contributing guide for you.

Topics

Reporting security issues

Security issues are always treated seriously. As our usual principle, we discourage anyone to spread security issues. If you find a security issue of Dragonfly Console, please do not discuss it in public and even do not open a public issue. Instead, we encourage you to send us a private email to [email protected] to report this.

Reporting general issues

To be honest, we regard every user of Dragonfly Console as a very kind contributor. After experiencing Dragonfly Console, you may have some feedback for the project. Then feel free to open an issue via NEW ISSUE.

Since we collaborate project Dragonfly Console in a distributed way, we appreciate WELL-WRITTEN, DETAILED, EXPLICIT issue reports. To make the communication more efficient, we wish everyone could search if your issue is an existing one in the searching list. If you find it existing, please add your details in comments under the existing issue instead of opening a brand new one.

To make the issue details as standard as possible, we setup an ISSUE TEMPLATE for issue reporters. You can find three kinds of issue templates there: question, bug report and feature request. Please BE SURE to follow the instructions to fill fields in template.

There are a lot of cases when you could open an issue:

  • bug report
  • feature request
  • performance issues
  • feature proposal
  • feature design
  • help wanted
  • doc incomplete
  • test improvement
  • any questions on project
  • and so on

Also, we must remind that when filing a new issue, please remember to remove the sensitive data from your post. Sensitive data could be password, secret key, network locations, private business data and so on.

Code and doc contribution

Every action to make project Dragonfly Console better is encouraged. On GitHub, every improvement for Dragonfly Console could be via a PR (short for pull request).

  • If you find a typo, try to fix it!
  • If you find a bug, try to fix it!
  • If you find some redundant codes, try to remove them!
  • If you find some test cases missing, try to add them!
  • If you could enhance a feature, please DO NOT hesitate!
  • If you find code implicit, try to add comments to make it clear!
  • If you find code ugly, try to refactor that!
  • If you can help to improve documents, it could not be better!
  • If you find document incorrect, just do it and fix that!
  • ...

Actually, it is impossible to list them completely. Just remember one principle:

WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO ANY PR FROM YOU. Since you are ready to improve Dragonfly Console with a PR, we suggest you could take a look at the PR rules here.

Workspace Preparation

To put forward a PR, we assume you have registered a GitHub ID. Then you could finish the preparation in the following steps:

  1. FORK Dragonfly Console to your repository.

To make this work, you just need to click the button Fork in right-left of dragonflyoss/console main page. Then you will end up with your repository in https://github.com/<your-username>/Console, in which your-username is your GitHub username.

  1. CLONE your own repository to develop locally.

Use git clone https://github.com/dragonflyoss/console.git to clone repository to your local machine. Then you can create new branches to finish the change you wish to make.

  1. Set Remote upstream to be https://github.com/dragonflyoss/console.git

using the following two commands:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/dragonflyoss/console.git
git remote set-url --push upstream no-pushing

With this remote setting, you can check your git remote configuration like this: https://github.com/dragonflyoss/console.git

$ git remote -v
origin     https://github.com/<your-username>/console.git (fetch)
origin     https://github.com/<your-username>/console.git (push)
upstream   https://github.com/dragonflyoss/console.git (fetch)
upstream   no-pushing (push)

Adding this, we can easily synchronize local branches with upstream branches.

  1. Create a branch to add a new feature or fix issues

Update local working directory:

cd  console
git fetch upstream
git checkout main
git rebase upstream/main

Create a new branch:

git checkout -b <new-branch>

Make any change on the new-branch then build and test your codes.

Branch Definition

Right now we assume every contribution via pull request is for branch main in Dragonfly Console. Before contributing, be aware of branch definition would help a lot.

As a contributor, keep in mind again that every contribution via pull request is for branch main. While in project Dragonfly Console, there are several other branches, we generally call them rc branches, release branches and backport branches.

Before officially releasing a version, we will checkout a rc(release candidate) branch. In this branch, we will test more than branch main.

When officially releasing a version, there will be a release branch before tagging. After tagging, we will delete the release branch.

When backporting some fixes to existing released version, we will checkout backport branches. After backporting, the backporting effects will be in PATCH number in MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH of SemVer.

Commit Rules

Actually in Dragonfly Console, we take two rules seriously when committing:

Commit Message

Commit message could help reviewers better understand what the purpose of submitted PR is. It could help accelerate the code review procedure as well. We encourage contributors to use EXPLICIT commit message rather than an ambiguous message. In general, we advocate the following commit message type:

  • feat: xxxx.For example, "feat: make result show in sorted order".
  • fix: xxxx. For example, "fix: fix panic when input nil parameter".
  • docs: xxxx. For example, "docs: add docs about storage installation".
  • style: xxxx. For example, "style: format the code style of Constants.java".
  • refactor: xxxx. For example, "refactor: simplify to make codes more readable".
  • test: xxx. For example, "test: add unit test case for func InsertIntoArray".
  • chore: xxx. For example, "chore: integrate travis-ci". It's the type of maintenance change.

On the other side, we discourage contributors from committing messages in the following ways:

  • fix bug
  • update
  • add doc

Commit Content

Commit content represents all content changes included in one commit. We had better include things in one single commit which could support reviewer's complete review without any other commits' help. In another word, contents in one single commit can pass the CI to avoid code mess. In brief, there are two minor rules for us to keep in mind:

  • avoid very large change in a commit.
  • complete and reviewable for each commit.

No matter what the commit message, or commit content is, we do take more emphasis on code review.

PR Description

PR is the only way to make change to Dragonfly Console project files. To help reviewers better get your purpose, PR description could not be too detailed. We encourage contributors to follow the PR template to finish the pull request.

Postman mock server overview

In this article, we will see how to import Swagger API into Postman and use mock server.

Download Postman

Download the app to get started with the Postman API platform.

Import API

If you need to use a mock server, please import the swagger.yaml file of Dragonfly Manager, refer to importing-and-exporting-data.

Step 1: Import API.

Step 2: Copy the swagger.yaml URL.

Step 3: Select OpenAPI 2.0 with Postman collection.

Setting up mock server

To use mock server, please do the following, refer to mocking-data-setting-up-mock.

Step 1: Choose Collections in the sidebar, choose the more actions icon next to the collection you want to mock, then choose Mock collection.

Step 2: Enter the name of the mock server and click Create Mock Server button.

Step 3: Copy the mock server URL.

Step 4: Add the mock server URL and click the Save button.

Step 5: Click the Send button to initiate a request.

Step 6: You can verify the success of requests by checking the request logs in the Mock Servers.

Step 7: Export mock server URL through environment variables in project.

Install dependencies.

npm install

First you need export REACT_APP_API_URL=<your-mock-server-URL>, where your-mock-server-URL is your own mock server URL, start your server after the import is successful.

$ export REACT_APP_API_URL=<your-mock-server-URL>
$ npm start
> [email protected] dev
> cross-env NODE_ENV='development' 
ready - started server on 0.0.0.0:3000, url: http://localhost:3000
event - compiled client and server successfully in 2.8s (173 modules)

Step 8: If you want Mock Server to return OK response, you need to add query params with code, so that the request matches the query params, then OK response will be returned.

When the query params of the request is code=200, Mock Server will return OK Response.

Step 9: If you want Mock Server to return Bad response, you need to add query params with code, so that the request matches the query params, then Bad response will be returned.

When the query params of the request is code=400, Mock Server will return Bad Response.
