Contributing

Hi there, thanks for checking out our repo!

@seek/logger is package for backend application logging at SEEK. While third-party contributions are certainly welcome, this project is primarily driven by our internal priorities and technology strategy.

SEEKers: this repo is public, so don't commit or post anything that isn't ready for the entire world to see.

Getting started

@seek/logger is documented through its README. We maintain a changelog and release notes on GitHub, and distribute it as an npm package.

I want to discuss or report something

Submit an issue if you have a question, feature request or bug report.

If you work at SEEK, start a discussion in #typescriptification.

I want to contribute a change

Feel free to create a pull request for trivial fixes and improvements.

For more substantial features, please submit an issue first. This lets us evaluate whether the feature fits the direction of the project and discuss possible approaches.

If you work at SEEK, start a discussion in #typescriptification.

Development

Prerequisites

@seek/logger is predominantly tested on macOS and Linux. If you're on Windows, we recommend the Windows Subsystem for Linux.

First, some JavaScript tooling:

  • Node.js LTS
  • Yarn 1.x

Next, install npm dependencies:

yarn install

Git workflow

We use GitHub flow.

Create a new branch off of the latest commit on master:

git fetch origin
git switch --create your-branch-name origin/master

Develop, test and commit your changes on this branch. (Make sure to include the appropriate changeset.)

git add --all
git commit

Finally, push your branch to GitHub and create a pull request:

git push --set-upstream origin your-branch-name

If you don't have push access, you may need to fork the repo and push there instead:

git remote add fork [email protected]:your-username/logger.git
git push --set-upstream fork your-branch-name

A maintainer will get to your pull request and review the changes. If all is well, they will merge your pull request into master.

Testing

You may find it easier to develop alongside unit tests:

yarn test --watch

Format your code once you're happy with it:

yarn format

We run linting and testing in CI, but consider running these commands locally for a faster feedback loop:

yarn lint
yarn test

Releases

Creating a changeset

We use Changesets to manage package releases. You'll see a 🦋 bot gliding around pull requests.

You should write a changeset if you are changing the public interface. On the other hand, a changeset is not necessary for:

yarn changeset

The Changesets CLI is interactive and follows semantic versioning:

  • Patch release 0.0.X: fixes or tweaks to existing functionality
  • Minor release 0.X.0: new, backwards-compatible functionality
  • Major release X.0.0: backwards-incompatible modification

The Changesets CLI will generate a Markdown file under .changeset, which you should include in your pull request. It doesn't need to be part of the same commit as the rest of your changes. Feel free to manually edit this file to include more details about your change.

Publishing a release

When a pull request with a changeset is merged, our CI workflow will create a new Version Packages PR. The changesets are used to infer the next semantic version and to update the changelog.

This PR may be left open to collate multiple changes into the next version. A maintainer will merge it once ready, and our release GitHub Actions workflow will publish the associated GitHub release and npm package version.

Publishing a prerelease

Prereleases can be created on demand via seek-oss/changesets-snapshot.

Run the Snapshot workflow in GitHub Actions to publish a new snapshot version to npm.
