Build Status

Making Changes

  1. When a change is user-facing, please add a new entry to the changelog under the current -wip version.
  2. Please include a test for your change. dartdoc has both package:test-style unit tests as well as integration tests. To run the tests, use dart run tool/task.dart test.
  3. For major changes, run both dart run tool/task.dart compare sdk-warnings and dart run tool/task.dart compare flutter-warnings, and include the summary results in your pull request.
  4. Be sure to format your Dart code using dart format, otherwise our CI will complain.
  5. Use dart run tool/task.dart buildbot before creating a pull request to quickly check for common problems. Follow any instructions it outputs, then run again.
  6. Post your change via a pull request for review and integration!

Testing

dartdoc has a number of utility command that can be used to check for behavior changes or try out your change on arbitrary packages.

# Serve the latest version of the given package locally on port 9000.
dart run tool/task.dart serve package --name=intl

# Build the SDK docs with the head version and compare its warning
# output and (rough) performance to the main version.
dart run tool/task.dart compare sdk-warnings

# Serve the flutter docs built with the head version on port 8001.
dart run tool/task.dart serve flutter

# Serve the test package (testing/test_package) on port 8002
dart run tool/task.dart serve testing-package

There are more commands added all the time, check out tool/task.dart to find each command or learn how they are implemented.
