When creating issues, please provide as much details as possible. A clear explanation on the issue and a reliable production example can help us greatly in improving this project. Your issue may get closed if it cannot be easily reproduced so please provide a working example using either Codesandbox or StackBlitz. Your example should only focus on the issue, minimal and clearly produces the issue.
You can fork this StackBlitz template to get a starting working environment ready for your demo with all vee-validate packages pre-installed and using the latest release.
If your issue gets closed for not providing enough info or not responding to the maintainers' comments, do not consider it a hostile action. There are probably other issues that the maintainers are working on and must give priority to issues that are well investigated, you can always revisit the issue and address the reasons that it was closed and we will be happy to re-open it and address it properly. Sometimes a commit will close your issue without a response from the maintainers so make sure you read the issue timeline to prevent any misunderstandings.

Before you open a PR, make sure to communicate via issues about your intent to avoid PRing something you think is an issue when it might be a design choice. This is a checklist of the stuff you need to be aware of:
- Make sure you fill the PR template provided
- PRs should have titles that are clear as possible
- Make sure that your PR is up to date with the branch you are targeting, use
git rebase
for this - Unfinished/In-Progress PRs should be marked as a
draft
- Make sure to mention which issues are being fixed by the PR so they can be closed properly
- Make sure to preview all pending PRs to make sure your work won't conflict with other ongoing pull-request
- Coordinate with ongoing conflicting PRs' authors to make it easier to merge both your PRs
- Make sure to generate a changeset on the PR branch before merging it, this will help us generate a changelog for the next release
Currently we are using TypeScript for the codebase, feel free to use any of it's features with a minor exception to:
Enums
as we prefer to use string literals instead.namespace
not needed in our codebase
Each test file represents a unit test to the corresponding file in the src folder.
You need to build the files before you run the tests:
pnpm build
Then to run the tests:
pnpm test
To check the tests coverage:
pnpm cover
this project uses mono-repo style using pnpm workspaces and changesets.
Use this command to build all project bundles
pnpm build
If you are working on a specific package within the vee-validate mono repo and only want to build that, then use the following command to build specific packages, the package id is the folder name in the packages
folder.
pnpm build vee-validate
pnpm build rules
pnpm build zod
# etc...
If you need to try out your changes, here is a few tips
- Build vee-validate dist files once you are done with your changes
- To use the built files you can either use
pnpm link {PKG_NAME}
and link the package dist files to your project, or use yalc.
