# Contributing to sway

Contributing just involves sending a pull request. You will probably be more
successful with your contribution if you visit the [IRC
channel](http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=sway&uio=d4) upfront and discuss
your plans.

## Pull Requests

If you already have your own pull request habits, feel free to use them. If you
don't, however, allow me to make a suggestion: feature branches pulled from
upstream. Try this:

1. Fork sway
2. Clone your fork
3. git remote add upstream git://github.com/SirCmpwn/sway.git

You only need to do this once. You're never going to use your fork's master
branch. Instead, when you start working on a feature, do this:

1. git fetch upstream
2. git checkout -b add-so-and-so-feature upstream/master
3. work
4. git push -u origin add-so-and-so-feature
5. Make pull request from your feature branch

## Writing Tests

Tests are driven by [CMocka](https://cmocka.org/). When testing a given
function, we can "mock" out the functions it relies on to program their behavior
explicitly and test the function in isolation. The directory layout of `test/`
is identical to the global directory layout, but each C file in the parent tree
has its own directory in the test tree, with its own CMakeLists.txt that wires
things up. To add a test, make the appropriate directory in `test/` and add a
CMakeLists.txt that looks something like this made-up example:

```cmake
configure_test(
    SUBPROJECT swaymsg
    NAME main
    SOURCES
        ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/swaymsg/main.c
        swaymsg.c
    WRAPPERS
        ipc_open_socket
    LIBRARIES
        ${WLC_LIBRARIES}
    INCLUDES
        ${WLC_INCLUDES}
)
```

This defines a test suite in the swaymsg subproject that tests main. This file
would live at `test/swaymsg/main/CMakeLists.txt`. It specifies that it requires
`swaymsg/main.c` and `test/swaymsg/main/swaymsg.c`, the former being the actual
swaymsg source and the latter being the test suite. It mocks ipc_open_socket and
links against openssl. See the cmocka documentation or read existing tests to
learn more about how mocks work.

## Coding Style

Sway is written in C. The style guidelines is [kernel
style](https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/CodingStyle), but all braces go
on the same line (*"but K&R says so!" is a silly way of justifying something*).
Some points to note:

* Do not use typedefs unless you have a good reason
* Do not use macros unless you have a *really* good reason
* Align `case` with `switch`
* Tabs, not spaces
* `char *pointer` - note position of `*`
* Use logging with reckless abandon
* Always include braces for if/for/while/etc, even for one-liners

An example of well formatted code:

```C
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "log.h"
#include "example.h"

struct foobar {
	char *foo;
	int bar;
	long baz;
}; // Do not typedef without a good reason

int main(int argc, const char **argv) {
	if (argc != 4) {

	}
