Feature Requests by the community are highly encouraged. Please feel free to submit a feature request by opening a discussion in the discussions forum.

Pull requests relating to fixing documentation for the latest release should be directed towards the documentation repo.

Bugs

We are using GitHub Issues to manage our public bugs. We keep a close eye on this so before filing a new issue, try to make sure the problem does not already exist.

Before Submitting a Pull Request

The core team will review your pull request and will either merge it, request changes to it, or close it.

Before submitting your pull request make sure the following requirements are fulfilled:

  • Fork the repository and create your branch from master.
  • Run yarn setup in the repository root.
  • If you’ve fixed a bug or added code that should be tested, add the tests and then link the corresponding issue in either your commit or your PR!
  • Ensure the test suites are passing:
    • yarn test
  • Make sure your code is formatted correctly (yarn prettier).

Contribution Prerequisites

  • You have Node at >= v12 and Yarn at v1.2.0+.
  • You are familiar with Git.

Development Workflow

Please follow the instructions below:

1. Fork the repository

Go to the repository and fork it to your own GitHub account.

2. Clone from your repository

git clone [email protected]:YOUR_USERNAME/tensei.git

3. Install the dependencies

Go to the root of the repository.

cd tensei && yarn setup

4. Start the example application

To start a test example application to test your changes quickly and also for the next step.

cd examples/blog && yarn example:dev

5. Running certain packages in development mode

For the task or feature or bug you are working on, you may need to access only a specific package. We recommend running the dev command only in the packages you're working on. For example, if you're working on the CMS, you would need to:

cd packages/cms

yarn dev:server # run cms dev server
yarn dev:client # run cms dev client

If you need to make changes to the @tensei/graphql package, you would need to:

cd packages/graphql

yarn dev # run typescript dev changes watcher

Miscellaneous

Repository Organization

We chose to use a monorepo design that exploits Yarn Workspaces in the way React or Babel does. This allows the community to easily maintain the whole ecosystem, keep it up-to-date and consistent.

We do our best to keep the master branch as clean as possible, with tests passing at all times. However, it may happen that the master branch moves faster than the release cycle. Therefore check the releases on npm so that you're always up-to-date with the latest stable version.
