Commit messages

This project uses Conventional Commits.

Development

I use

• nix for development and testing.
• stylua, .editorconfig, and alejandra for formatting.
• luacheck, and markdownlint, for linting.
• lua-language-server for static type checking.

Running tests

This plugin uses busted for testing.

The best way to run tests is with Nix (see below), because this includes tests that take different envrionments into account (e.g. with/without rust-analyzer, cargo, ...).

If you do not use Nix, you can run a basic version of the test suite using luarocks test. For more information, see the neorocks tutorial.

Development using Nix

Note

Flakes must be enabled.

To enter a development shell:

nix develop

To apply formatting, while in a devShell, run

pre-commit run --all

If you use direnv, just run direnv allow and you will be dropped in this devShell.

Tests

To run tests locally

nix build .#checks.<your-system>.haskell-tools-test --print-build-logs

For formatting and linting:

nix build .#checks.<your-system>.formatting --print-build-logs

If you have flakes enabled and just want to run all checks that are available, run:

nix flake check --print-build-logs
