OpenConsole Tools
These are a collection of tools and scripts to make your life building the OpenConsole project easier. Many of them are designed to be functional clones of tools that we used to use when developing inside the Windows build system.
Razzle
This is a script that quickly sets up your environment variables so that these tools can run easily. It's named after another script used by Windows developers to similar effect.
- It adds msbuild to your path.
- It adds the tools directory to your path as well, so all these scripts are easily available.
- It executes
\tools\.razzlerc.cmd
to add any other personal configuration to your environment as well, or creates one if it doesn't exist. - It sets up the default build configuration to be 'Debug'. If you'd like to
manually specify a build configuration, pass the parameter
dbg
for Debug, andrel
for Release.
bcz
bcz
can quick be used to clean and build the project. By default, it builds
the %DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION%
configuration, which is Debug
if you use razzle.cmd
.
bcz dbg
can be used to manually build the Debug configuration.bcz rel
can be used to manually build the Release configuration.
opencon (and openbash, openps)
opencon
can be used to launch the last built OpenConsole binary. If given an
argument, it will try and run that program in the launched window. Otherwise it
will default to cmd.exe.
openbash
is similar, it immediately launches bash.exe (the Windows Subsystem
for Linux entrypoint) in your ~
directory.
Likewise, openps
launches powershell.
runformat & runxamlformat
runxamlformat
will format .xaml
files to match our coding style. runformat
will format the c++ code (and will also call runxamlformat
). runformat
should be called before making a new PR, to ensure that code is formatted
correctly. If it isn't, the CI will prevent your PR from merging.
The C++ code is formatted with clang-format
. Many editors have built-in
support for automatically running clang-format on save.
Our XAML code is formatted with
XamlStyler. I don't have a good way of
running this on save, but you can add a git
hook to format before committing
.xaml
files. To do so, add the following to your .git/hooks/pre-commit
file:
# XAML Styler - xstyler.exe pre-commit Git Hook
# Documentation: https://github.com/Xavalon/XamlStyler/wiki
# Originally from https://github.com/Xavalon/XamlStyler/wiki/Git-Hook
# Define path to xstyler.exe
XSTYLER_PATH="dotnet tool run xstyler --"
# Define path to XAML Styler configuration
XSTYLER_CONFIG="XamlStyler.json"
echo "Running XAML Styler on committed XAML files"
git diff --cached --name-only --diff-filter=ACM | grep -e '\.xaml$' | \
# Wrap in brackets to preserve variable through loop
{
files=""
# Build list of files to pass to xstyler.exe
while read FILE; do
if [ "$files" == "" ]; then
files="$FILE";
else
files="$files,$FILE";
fi
done
if [ "$files" != "" ]; then
# Check if external configuration is specified
[ -z "$XSTYLER_CONFIG" ] && configParam="" || configParam="-c $XSTYLER_CONFIG"
# Format XAML files
$XSTYLER_PATH -f "$files" $configParam
for i in $(echo $files | sed "s/,/ /g")
do
#strip BOM
sed -i '1s/^\xEF\xBB\xBF//' $i
unix2dos $i
# stage updated file
git add -u $i
done
else
echo "No XAML files detected in commit"
fi
exit 0
}
testcon, runut, runft
runut
will automatically run all of the unit tests through TAEF. runft
will
run the feature tests, and testcon
runs all of them. They'll pass any
arguments through to TAEF, so you can more finely control the testing.
A recommended workflow is the following command:
bcz dbg && runut /name:*<name of test>*
Where <name of test>
is the name of the test testing the relevant feature area
you're working on. For example, if I was working on the VT Mouse input support,
I would use MouseInputTest
as that string, to isolate the mouse input tests.
If you'd like to run all the tests, just ignore the /name
param:
bcz dbg && runut
To make sure your code is ready for a pull request, run the build, then launch the built console, then run the tests in it. The built console will inherit all of the razzle environment, so you can immediately start using the macros:
bcz
opencon
testcon
(in the new console window)runformat
If they all come out green, then you're ready for a pull request!
