Having a single voted for issue is far easier for us to prioritize.

Your First Code Contribution

Requirements

The following dependencies are required to build Kestra locally:

  • Java 21+
  • Node 18+ and npm
  • Python 3, pip and python venv
  • Docker & Docker Compose
  • an IDE (Intellij IDEA, Eclipse or VS Code)

To start contributing:

  • Fork the repository
  • Clone the fork on your workstation:
git clone [email protected]:{YOUR_USERNAME}/kestra.git
cd kestra

Develop backend

The backend is made with Micronaut.

Open the cloned repository in your favorite IDE. In most of decent IDEs, Gradle build will be detected and all dependencies will be downloaded. You can also build it from a terminal using ./gradlew build, the Gradle wrapper will download the right Gradle version to use.

  • You may need to enable java annotation processors since we are using them.
  • On IntelliJ IDEA, click on Run -> Edit Configurations -> + Add new Configuration to create a run configuration to start Kestra.
    • The main class is io.kestra.cli.App from module kestra.cli.main.
    • Pass as program arguments the server you want to work with, for example server local will start the standalone local. You can also use server standalone and use the provided docker-compose-ci.yml Docker compose file to start a standalone server with a real database as a backend that would need to be configured properly.
    • Configure the following environment variables:
      • MICRONAUT_ENVIRONMENTS: can be set to any string and will load a custom configuration file in cli/src/main/resources/application-{env}.yml.
      • KESTRA_PLUGINS_PATH: is the path where you will save plugins as Jar and will be load on startup.
    • See the screenshot below for an example: Intellij IDEA Configuration
    • If you encounter JavaScript memory heap out error during startup, configure NODE_OPTIONS environment variable with some large value.
      • Example NODE_OPTIONS: --max-old-space-size=4096 or NODE_OPTIONS: --max-old-space-size=8192 Intellij IDEA Configuration
  • The server starts by default on port 8080 and is reachable on http://localhost:8080

If you want to launch all tests, you need Python and some packages installed on your machine, on Ubuntu you can install them with:

sudo apt install python3 pip python3-venv
python3 -m pip install virtualenv

Develop frontend

The frontend is made with Vue.js and located on the /ui folder.

  • npm install
  • create a file ui/.env.development.local with content VITE_APP_API_URL=http://localhost:8080 (or your actual server url)
  • npm run dev will start the development server with hot reload.
  • The server start by default on port 5173 and is reachable on http://localhost:5173
  • You can run npm run build in order to build the front-end that will be delivered from the backend (without running the npm run dev) above.

Now, you need to start a backend server, you could:

  • start a local server without a database using this docker-compose file already configured with CORS enabled:
services:
  kestra:
    image: kestra/kestra:latest
    user: "root"
    command: server local
    environment:
      KESTRA_CONFIGURATION: |
        micronaut:
          server:
            cors:
              enabled: true
              configurations:
                all:
                  allowedOrigins:
                    - http://localhost:5173
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"
  • start the Develop backend from your IDE, you need to configure CORS restrictions when using the local development npm server, changing the backend configuration allowing the http://localhost:5173 origin in cli/src/main/resources/application-override.yml
micronaut:
  server:
    cors:
      enabled: true
      configurations:
        all:
          allowedOrigins:
            - http://localhost:5173

Build and deploy Kestra locally

For testing purposes, you can use the Makefile provided at the project's root to build and deploy Kestra locally. By default, Kestra will be installed under: $HOME/.kestra/current. Set the KESTRA_HOME environment variable to override default.

# build and install Kestra
make install
# install plugins (plugins installation is based on the `.plugins` or `.plugins.override` files located at the root of the project.
make install-plugins
# start Kestra in standalone mode with Postgres as backend
make start-standalone-postgres

Note: the local installation writes logs into the ~/.kestra/current/logs/ directory.

Develop plugins

A complete documentation for developing plugin can be found here.

Improving The Documentation

The main documentation is located in a separate repository. For tasks documentation, they are located directly in the Java source, using Swagger annotations (Example: for Bash tasks)
