# Issues and Features

Issues reported on [GitHub](https://github.com/themoeway/yomitan/issues) should include information about:

- What the problem, question, or request is.
- What browser is being used.
- What version of Yomitan is being used.
- If applicable, an export of the settings file.

# Development

Contributions are welcome from any developers who would like to help out.
Below are a few guidelines to ensure contributions have a good level of quality and consistency:

- Open GitHub issues to discuss large features before writing code.
- Follow the [conventions and style](#style) of the existing code.
- Test changes using the continuous integration tests included in the repository.
- Write clean, modern ES6 code (`const`/`let`, `async`/`await`, arrow functions, etc.)
- Large pull requests without a clear scope will not be merged.
- Incomplete or non-standalone features will not be merged.

## Setup

Yomitan uses [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) and [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) tools for building and testing.
After installing these Node.js, the development environment can be set up by running `npm ci`.

## Testing

Unit tests, integration tests, and various other tests can be executed by running `npm test`.
Other individual tests can be looked up in the [package.json](package.json) file, and the source for specific tests
can be found in the [test](test) directory

## Building

By default, the development repository is configured for Chrome, and the [ext](ext) directory can be directly
loaded as an unpacked extension by Chrome. This way, development does not require any additional build steps,
and most changes will be automatically updated by the browser. Depending on what files were changed,
the extension may sometimes need to be reloaded before the changes take effect.

There are two scripts to build the extension to a packaged file for various build targets:

- [build.bat](build.bat) on Windows
- [build.sh](build.sh) on Linux

Both of these files are convenience scripts which invoke <code>node [dev/bin/build.js](dev/bin/build.js)</code>.
The build script can produce several different build files based on manifest configurations defined in
[manifest-variants.json](dev/data/manifest-variants.json).
Several command line arguments are available for these scripts:

- `[target]` - Builds a specific target.
- `--all` - Builds all targets specified in [manifest-variants.json](dev/data/manifest-variants.json).
- `--default` - Restores the default manifest file.
- `--manifest <target>` - Overwrites `ext/manifest.json` with the manifest variant for the specified build target.
- `--dryRun` - Runs the full build process (excluding zip building), checking that the configuration is valid.
- `--dryRunBuildZip` - If `--dryRun` is also specified, zip building will also be performed in memory; no files are created.
- `--version <version>` - Sets the version number in the extension manifest. Defaults to 0.0.0.0 if not set.

If no arguments are specified, the command is equivalent to `build.bat --all`.

### Build Tools

The build process can use the [7-zip](https://www.7-zip.org/) archiving tool to create the packed zip builds
if the 7-zip executable (either `7z` or `7za`) is found in the `PATH` environment variable.
Otherwise, the [JSZip](https://stuk.github.io/jszip/) API is used to generate the files.
7-zip typically provides better compression than JSZip, but the files are otherwise equivalent.

## Manifest

Manifest variants for different build targets are specified in [manifest-variants.json](dev/data/manifest-variants.json).
This file is used to generate the `ext/manifest.json` file included in the extension.
The generated `ext/manfiest.json` should not be committed.

## Style

Linting rules are defined for a few types of files, and validation is performed as part of the standard tests
run by `npm test` and the continuous integration process.

- [.eslintrc.json](.eslintrc.json) rules are used for JavaScript files.
- [.stylelintrc.json](.stylelintrc.json) rules are used for CSS files.
- [.htmlvalidate.json](.htmlvalidate.json) rules are used for HTML files.

In addition, the [Markdown All in One VSCode extension](https://github.com/yzhang-gh/vscode-markdown) is used for formatting markdown files and automatically updating the table of contents.
