# Contributing to Pinafore
## Caveats
Please note that this project is _very_ beta right now, and I'm
not in a good position to accept large PRs for
big new features.
I'm making my code open-source for the sake of
transparency and because it's the right thing to do, but I'm hesitant
to start nurturing a community because of
[all that entails](https://nolanlawson.com/2017/03/05/what-it-feels-like-to-be-an-open-source-maintainer/).
So I may not be very responsive to PRs or issues. Thanks for understanding.
## Building
To build Pinafore for production:
npm install
npm run build
PORT=4002 npm start
Now Pinafore is running at `localhost:4002`.
## Development
To run a dev server with hot reloading:
npm run dev
Now it's running at `localhost:4002`.
## Linting
Pinafore uses [JavaScript Standard Style](https://standardjs.com/).
Lint:
npm run lint
Automatically fix most linting issues:
npx standard --fix
## Testing
_**Note:** If you have a local `mastodon_development` Postgres database, this will erase it._
Run integration tests, using headless Chrome by default:
npm test
Run tests for a particular browser:
BROWSER=chrome npm run test-browser
BROWSER=chrome:headless npm run test-browser
BROWSER=firefox npm run test-browser
BROWSER=firefox:headless npm run test-browser
BROWSER=safari npm run test-browser
BROWSER=edge npm run test-browser
## Testing in development mode
_**Note:** If you have a local `mastodon_development` Postgres database, this will erase it._
In separate terminals:
1\. Run a Mastodon dev server:
npm run run-mastodon
2\. Run a Pinafore dev server:
npm run dev
3\. Run a debuggable TestCafé instance:
npx testcafe --hostname localhost --skip-js-errors --debug-mode firefox tests/spec
If you want to export the current data in the Mastodon instance as canned data,
so that it can be loaded later, run:
npm run backup-mastodon-data
