Overcommit adds some requirements to your commit messages. At Uber, we follow the Chris Beams guide to writing git commit messages. Read it, follow it, learn it, love it.
All commit messages are from the titles of your pull requests. So make sure follow the rules when titling them. Please don't use very generic titles like "bug fixes".
All PR titles should start with UPPER case.
Examples:
- Make sync activity retry multiple times before fetch history from remote
- Enable archival config per domain
Take a look at the list of issues labeled up-for-grabs. These issues are a great way to start contributing to Cadence.
You can compile the cadence
service and helper tools without running test:
make bins
Before running the tests you must have cassandra
, kafka
, and its zookeeper
dependency:
# install cassandra
# you can reduce memory used by cassandra (by default 4GB), by following instructions here: http://codefoundries.com/developer/cassandra/cassandra-installation-mac.html
brew install cassandra
# install zookeeper compatible with jdk@8 that OSX has
brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/6d8197bbb5f77e62d51041a3ae552ce2f8ff1344/Formula/zookeeper.rb
# install kafka compatible with zookeeper 3.4.14
brew install --ignore-dependencies https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/6d8197bbb5f77e62d51041a3ae552ce2f8ff1344/Formula/kafka.rb
# start services
brew services start cassandra
brew services start zookeeper
brew services start kafka
Run all the tests:
make test
# `make test` currently do not include crossdc tests, start kafka and run
make test_xdc
# or go to folder with *_test.go, e.g
cd service/history/
go test -v
# run single test
go test -v <path> -run <TestSuite> -testify.m <TestSpercificTaskName>
# example:
go test -v github.com/uber/cadence/common/persistence/persistence-tests -run TestVisibilitySamplingSuite -testify.m TestListClosedWorkflowExecutions
