Reporting Bugs

You want to fix a bug, but need some help.

You are required to provide a script that reproduces the bug, using our template. You are required to fix the bug. We're here to help, but no one else will fix it for you. If you don't fix the bug in a reasonable amount of time, your issue will be closed.

Due to limited volunteers, we cannot fix everyone's bugs for them. We're happy to help, but we can only accept issues from people committed to working on their own problems.

Different people use different parts of PaperTrail. You may have found a bug, but you might also be the only person affected by that bug. Don't hesitate to ask for whatever help you need, but it's your job to fix it.

Development

Install gems with bundle exec appraisal install.

Testing is a little awkward because the test suite:

  1. Supports multiple versions of rails
  2. Contains a "dummy" rails app with three databases (test, foo, and bar)
  3. Supports three different RDBMS': sqlite, mysql, and postgres

Test sqlite, AR 4

DB=sqlite bundle exec appraisal ar-4.2 rake

# Run a single test
DB=sqlite bundle exec appraisal ar-4.2 rspec spec/paper_trail_spec.rb

Test sqlite, AR 5

DB=sqlite bundle exec appraisal ar-5.2 rake

Test mysql, AR 5

DB=mysql bundle exec appraisal ar-5.2 rake

Test postgres, AR 5

createuser --superuser postgres
DB=postgres bundle exec appraisal ar-5.2 rake

Adding new schema

Edit spec/dummy_app/db/migrate/20110208155312_set_up_test_tables.rb. Migration will be performed by rake, so you can just run it as shown above. Also, spec/dummy_app/db/schema.rb is deliberately .gitignored, we don't use it.
