Most of D2's CI is open sourced in its own
repository. You can find commands in the Github
workflows. E.g. run ./make.sh fmt
to run the formatter. Please make sure all CI is
passing for any PRs.
The simplified D2 flow at a package level looks like:
- D2 uses Issues as TODOs. No auto-closing on staleness.
- Branch off
master
. - Prefix pull request titles with a short descriptor of the domain, e.g.
d2renderer: Add x
. - If there's an Issue related, include it by adding "[one-word] #[issue]", e.g. "Fixes #123" somewhere in the description.
- Whenever possible and relevant, include a screenshot or screen-recording.
Please choose an Issue with a "TODO" label. If you'd like to propose new functionality or change to current functionality, please create an Issue first with a proposal. When you start work on an Issue, please leave a comment so others know that it's being worked on.
All code changes must include tests. D2 mostly has functional tests, and uses diff as a framework that gives Git-style comparisons of expected vs actual output for each stage. There are ample examples in each package of this -- try changing some test and run it to see.
With the exception of changes to the renderer, all code should include a package-specific test. If it's a visual change, an e2e test should accompany.
If you're testing labels and strings, it's encouraged to use 1-letter strings (x
) in small
functional tests to minimally pinpoint issues. If you are testing something that exercises
variations in strings, or want to mimic more realistic diagram text, it's encouraged you
generate random strings and words from fortune
. It gives a good range of the English
language. Sometimes it gives controversial sentences -- don't use those.
Script to generate one line of random text:
ipsum1() {
fortune | head -n1 | sed 's/^ *//;s/ *$//' | tr -d '\n' | tee /dev/stderr | pbcopy
}
Run: ./ci/test.sh
CI runs tests with -race
to catch potential race conditions. It's much slower, but if
your machine can run it locally, you can do so with ./make.sh race
.
D2 has chaos tests which produce random configurations of diagrams. It can be helpful to run a few iterations (N~=100) to spot cover your manual tests.
D2_CHAOS_MAXI=100 D2_CHAOS_N=100 ./ci/test.sh ./d2chaos
The code itself should be documented as appropriate with Go-style comments. No rules here,
GetX()
doesn't need a // GetX gets X
.
If it's some new functionality, please submit a pull request to document it in the language docs: https://github.com/terrastruct/d2-docs.
