Contributing

  • If you are using vscode, install and enable the required extensions.
    • If you are not using vscode, sort your imports and use the following prettier settings:
      • semi: true
      • singleQuote: false
      • printWidth: 100
      • trailingComma: “es5”
      • tabWidth: 2
      • useTabs: false
  • Functions, constants and variables are always camelCase
  • Classes are allowed to be PascalCase
  • Extract shared code to util
  • Code that is not a plugin or hook lives in cli

Contributing denopack plugins

Contributing a plugin to the denopack repo is not only extremely welcomed, it’s even encouraged. That does mean a few conventions are in order, extending from the existing Rollup conventions these are:

  • Plugins should have a clear plugin name with a denopack-plugin- prefix
  • Plugin functions are always camelCased and are default exported
  • Plugins and their documentation should be stored in a separate folder inside the plugin directory
  • Optionally also indicating what the most impactful action is (resolve, load, transform, bundle …). The typescriptCompile plugin is an obvious exception, but do take a look at the naming of the other plugins
  • Use async Deno APIs (readFile not readFileSync, etc.)
  • Document your plugin in English and detail what flags are required! Here’s an example

Contributing denopack hooks

Contributing a hook follows the following conventions:

  • Hooks start with the keyword use
  • Hooks are always camelCased
  • Hooks are stored inside of hooks.ts
  • Hooks are always functions and always return an array of plugins
  • Using plugins that accept configuration options in hooks should always be allowed to pass config down to that plugin
  • Configuration options are stored in one object containing all configuration options, see hooks.ts for examples
