<p>We are open to, and grateful for, any contributions made by the community.</p>
<h1>Developing</h1>
<h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="requirements">Requirements<a href="#requirements" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Requirements" title="Direct link to Requirements"></a></h2>
<p>Before you can start developing, do the following:</p>
<ol>
<li>Make sure you have installed nodejs with the version stated in the <a href="https://github.com/pubkey/rxdb/blob/master/.nvmrc" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">.nvmrc</a></li>
<li>Clone the repository <code>git clone https://github.com/pubkey/rxdb.git</code></li>
<li>Install the dependencies <code>cd rxdb && npm install</code></li>
<li>Make sure that the tests work for you. At first, try it out with <code>npm run test:node:memory</code> which tests the memory storage in node. In the <a href="https://github.com/pubkey/rxdb/blob/master/package.json" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">package.json</a> you can find more scripts to run the tests with different storages.</li>
</ol>
<h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="adding-tests">Adding tests<a href="#adding-tests" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Adding tests" title="Direct link to Adding tests"></a></h2>
<p>Before you start creating a bugfix or a feature, you should create a test to reproduce it. Tests are in the <code>test/unit</code>-folder.
If you want to reproduce a bug, you can modify the test in <a href="https://github.com/pubkey/rxdb/blob/master/test/unit/bug-report.test.ts" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">this file</a>.</p>
<h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="making-a-pr">Making a PR<a href="#making-a-pr" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Making a PR" title="Direct link to Making a PR"></a></h2>
<p>If you make a pull-request, ensure the following:</p>
<ol>
<li>Every feature or bugfix must be committed together with a unit-test which ensures everything works as expected.</li>
<li>Do not commit build-files (anything in the <code>dist</code>-folder)</li>
<li>Before you add non-trivial changes, create an issue to discuss if this will be merged and you don't waste your time.</li>
<li>To run the unit and integration-tests, do <code>npm run test</code> and ensure everything works as expected</li>
</ol>
<h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="getting-help">Getting help<a href="#getting-help" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Getting help" title="Direct link to Getting help"></a></h2>
<p>If you need help with your contribution, ask at <a href="https://rxdb.info/chat/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">discord</a>.</p>
<h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="no-go">No-Go<a href="#no-go" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to No-Go" title="Direct link to No-Go"></a></h2>
<p>When reporting a bug, you need to make a PR with a test case that runs in the CI and reproduces your problem.
Sending a link with a repo does not help the maintainer because installing random peoples projects is time consuming and dangerous.
Also the maintainer will never go on a bug hunt based on your plain description. Either you report the bug with a test case, or the maintainer will likely not help you.</p>
<h1>Docs</h1>
<p>The source of the documentation is at the <code>docs-src</code>-folder.
To read the docs locally, run <code>npm run docs:install && npm run docs:serve</code> and open <code>http://localhost:4000/</code></p>
