A collection of CLI tools meant to support and automate various aspects of developing Envoy, particularly those related to code review. For example, automatic DCO signoff and pre-commit format checking.
To get started, you need only navigate to the Envoy project root and run:
./support/bootstrap
This will set up the development support toolchain automatically. The toolchain
uses git hooks extensively, copying them from support/hooks
to the .git
folder.
The commit hook checks can be skipped using the -n
/ --no-verify
flags, as
so:
git commit --no-verify
Currently the development support toolchain exposes two main pieces of functionality:
- Automatically appending DCO signoff to the end of a commit message if it
doesn't exist yet. Correctly covers edge cases like
commit --amend
andrebase
. - Automatically running DCO and format checks on all files in the diff, before push.
If the pre-push format checks detect any problems, you can either fix the affected files manually or run the provided formatting script.
To run the format fix script directly:
./tools/check_format.py fix && ./tools/format_python_tools.sh fix
To run the format fix script under Docker:
./ci/run_envoy_docker.sh './ci/do_ci.sh fix_format'
To run clang-tidy under Docker, run the following (this creates a full compilation db and takes a long time):
./ci/run_envoy_docker.sh ci/do_ci.sh bazel.clang_tidy
