| 1 | # Contributing to smbcloud-cli |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Thank you for considering contributing to smbcloud-cli! This document covers everything you need to get up and running. |
| 4 | |
| 5 | ## Code of Conduct |
| 6 | |
| 7 | By participating in this project you agree to abide by our [Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md). Please be respectful and considerate of others. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | ## Prerequisites |
| 10 | |
| 11 | - [Rust](https://rustup.rs/) — toolchain version is pinned in `rust-toolchain.toml` (currently 1.93) |
| 12 | - [cargo-workspaces](https://github.com/pksunkara/cargo-workspaces) — for publishing (`cargo install cargo-workspaces`) |
| 13 | - A `.env` file in the repo root containing `CLI_CLIENT_SECRET=<value>` — required at compile time by `dotenv_codegen` |
| 14 | |
| 15 | ## Getting Started |
| 16 | |
| 17 | 1. Fork the repository on GitHub |
| 18 | 2. Clone your fork: |
| 19 | ```sh |
| 20 | git clone https://github.com/your-username/smbcloud-cli.git |
| 21 | cd smbcloud-cli |
| 22 | ``` |
| 23 | 3. Create the `.env` file (ask a maintainer for the value, or use a local stub for offline work): |
| 24 | ```sh |
| 25 | echo "CLI_CLIENT_SECRET=your_secret_here" > .env |
| 26 | ``` |
| 27 | 4. Verify everything compiles: |
| 28 | ```sh |
| 29 | cargo check --workspace |
| 30 | ``` |
| 31 | 5. Create a branch for your work: |
| 32 | ```sh |
| 33 | git checkout -b your-feature-or-fix |
| 34 | ``` |
| 35 | |
| 36 | ## Development Workflow |
| 37 | |
| 38 | ### Build |
| 39 | |
| 40 | ```sh |
| 41 | # Debug build |
| 42 | cargo build |
| 43 | |
| 44 | # Release build |
| 45 | cargo build --release |
| 46 | ``` |
| 47 | |
| 48 | The compiled binary is at `target/release/smb`. |
| 49 | |
| 50 | ### Test |
| 51 | |
| 52 | ```sh |
| 53 | cargo test --all-features |
| 54 | ``` |
| 55 | |
| 56 | ### Lint |
| 57 | |
| 58 | ```sh |
| 59 | cargo clippy --workspace --tests -- -D warnings |
| 60 | ``` |
| 61 | |
| 62 | Fix any warnings before opening a PR — CI treats warnings as errors. |
| 63 | |
| 64 | ### Format |
| 65 | |
| 66 | ```sh |
| 67 | # Apply formatting |
| 68 | cargo fmt --all |
| 69 | |
| 70 | # Check only (what CI runs) |
| 71 | cargo fmt --all -- --check |
| 72 | ``` |
| 73 | |
| 74 | ## Project Structure |
| 75 | |
| 76 | This is a Cargo workspace. Each crate has a focused responsibility: |
| 77 | |
| 78 | | Crate | Purpose | |
| 79 | | ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------ | |
| 80 | | `crates/cli` | Main binary (`smb`) — commands, entrypoint | |
| 81 | | `crates/smbcloud-model` | Shared API data types (`serde` structs) | |
| 82 | | `crates/smbcloud-network` | Network config and environment resolution | |
| 83 | | `crates/smbcloud-networking` | Core HTTP client (`SmbClient`) | |
| 84 | | `crates/smbcloud-auth` | Auth SDK API calls | |
| 85 | | `crates/smbcloud-networking-project` | Project API calls | |
| 86 | | `crates/smbcloud-utils` | Shared utilities | |
| 87 | |
| 88 | All workspace-level dependencies are declared **once** in the root `Cargo.toml` under `[workspace.dependencies]`. When adding a dependency to a crate, add it to the root table first, then inherit it with `{ workspace = true }` in the crate's own `Cargo.toml`. |
| 89 | |
| 90 | ## Coding Guidelines |
| 91 | |
| 92 | These rules are enforced in code review and by CI: |
| 93 | |
| 94 | - Use `?` to propagate errors — never `.unwrap()` or `.expect()` in production code. |
| 95 | - Never silently discard errors with `let _ =` on fallible operations. |
| 96 | - Do not create `mod.rs` files — use `src/some_module.rs` instead of `src/some_module/mod.rs`. |
| 97 | - Use full words for variable names — no abbreviations. |
| 98 | - Comments explain _why_, not _what_. Do not write comments that summarize code. |
| 99 | - Prefer adding to existing files over creating many small new files. |
| 100 | |
| 101 | The full guidelines are in [AGENTS.md](AGENTS.md). |
| 102 | |
| 103 | ## Submitting a Pull Request |
| 104 | |
| 105 | 1. Ensure all of the following pass locally before pushing: |
| 106 | ```sh |
| 107 | cargo check --workspace |
| 108 | cargo test --all-features |
| 109 | cargo clippy --workspace --tests -- -D warnings |
| 110 | cargo fmt --all -- --check |
| 111 | ``` |
| 112 | 2. Push your branch and open a PR against `main`. |
| 113 | 3. Fill out the pull request template — in particular the **Release Notes** section. |
| 114 | 4. A maintainer will review your changes and may request modifications. |
| 115 | 5. Once approved, your PR will be merged. |
| 116 | |
| 117 | ### PR Title Convention |
| 118 | |
| 119 | Use a clear, imperative title that describes the change: |
| 120 | |
| 121 | - ✅ `Fix crash when project name contains spaces` |
| 122 | - ✅ `Add logout command` |
| 123 | - ❌ `feat: add logout` (no conventional-commit prefixes) |
| 124 | - ❌ `Fixed some stuff.` (no past tense, no trailing punctuation) |
| 125 | |
| 126 | ## Reporting Bugs |
| 127 | |
| 128 | Use the GitHub issue tracker and fill out the bug report template. Please include: |
| 129 | |
| 130 | - A clear description of the problem |
| 131 | - Steps to reproduce |
| 132 | - Expected vs. actual behaviour |
| 133 | - Your OS and the output of `smb --version` |
| 134 | |
| 135 | ## Requesting Features |
| 136 | |
| 137 | Use the GitHub issue tracker and fill out the feature request template. Describe the use case clearly — what problem does the feature solve? |
| 138 | |
| 139 | ## Releasing |
| 140 | |
| 141 | Releases are handled by maintainers using [cargo-workspaces](https://github.com/pksunkara/cargo-workspaces): |
| 142 | |
| 143 | ```sh |
| 144 | # Bump versions interactively |
| 145 | cargo workspaces version |
| 146 | |
| 147 | # Publish all crates |
| 148 | cargo workspaces publish --publish-as-is |
| 149 | ``` |
| 150 | |
| 151 | GitHub Actions workflows handle the GitHub release and npm wrapper publish automatically on tag push. |
| 152 | |
| 153 | ## Questions? |
| 154 | |
| 155 | Open a GitHub issue or reach out to the maintainers. We're happy to help. |
