FluidTYPO3 Development Assistant

Test runners, coding standards sniffing, local git hook scripts, utilities

This package defines dependencies and contains wrapper scripts for easy validations of Fluid Powered TYPO3 project repositories conforming to the coding style and contribution guidelines. The provided ./vendor/bin/make script can be used for local testing and will install itself as a git post-commit hook that executes after commits are made.

The same scripts can be used from a continuous integration context.

To use fluidtypo3-development you must add it as a composer dependency:

composer require --dev fluidtypo3/development:*

Note that this package should only be used in local development!

Requirements

• composer (scripts are tailored to be executed from composer projects only).
• Optional Documentation/Changelog directory if you use the changelog command.

Usage instructions: utility scripts

A few handy shell utilities are included with fluidtypo3-development to help you perform a few of the tasks associated with maintaining and developing official FluidTYPO3 repositories. These utilities are:

Inside this package:

• ./vendor/bin/changelog which can be used to automatically generate a change log for an up-coming version. The command is used by the release command as well. It takes one mandatory argument, the version number (e.g. 1.2.3) and one additional and optional argument, a "since" date (e.g. 2016/03/10 for March 10th 2016). Executing the command generates a dedicated change log file in Documentation/Changelog/$version.md and updates the CHANGELOG.md file to record the new log file.
• ./vendor/bin/release which releases an extension (which was staged immediately before that). Checks out the master branch, merges the staging branch into it, runs unit tests, generates a change log, raises the version number and commits a new (signed) tag. If all of this is succesful, the result is pushed to the remote and GitHub hooks deploy the extension to TER.
• ./vendor/bin/setversion which sets a new version number (and optionally new stability) in the ext_emconf.php file.
