Contributing to Phx.Gen.Auth

Please take a moment to review this document in order to make the contribution process easy and effective for everyone involved!

Background

This project is serving as the incubator for the mix phx.gen.auth code generator before it's merged into phoenix core. By initially having this as a separate project, we can make quicker changes and bug fixes while not having to wait for the next phoenix release. However, with the goal of eventually merging this project into phoenix core, it's import this project's code and the code it generates stays consistent with the rest of phoenix.

Running tests

To get started, we must be running Elixir 1.8+ and have installed this project's dependencies with mix deps.get.

Unit Tests

The unit tests are fast and provide test coverage around areas such as code injection logic. Use the following command to run only the unit tests:

$ mix test --exclude=integration

Integration tests

The integration tests are slower, require an internet connection and a database. These tests:

  • generate a new phoenix app,
  • install phx.gen.auth,
  • install dependencies with mix deps.get,
  • run the generated app's test suite and
  • check the generated app's formatting with mix format --check-formatted.

There is no requirement that the phx_new archive is installed on our system because phx_new is a defined as test dependency in mix.exs.

To ensure the proper databases are running, start up the appropriate containers using docker-compose.

$ docker-compose up

This starts the following databases:

  • Postgresql
  • MySQL
  • SQL Server

Next, run the integration tests

$ mix test --only=integration

During the integration tests, apps are generated to test_apps/. It can be useful to look in this directory to see the code that Phx.Gen.Auth installed into this project.

Troubleshooting

Sometimes when the test suite is stopped unexpectedly, the generated apps can get into a weird state. The easiest way to fix this issue is to delete the test_apps directory and run the test suite again.

$ rm test_apps
