Build Status

Making Changes

  1. grind is needed to run dartdoc integration tests, see installed via pub global activate grinder.
  2. When a change is user-facing, please add a new entry to the changelog
  3. Please include a test for your change. dartdoc has both package:test-style unittests as well as integration tests. To run the unittests, use grind test.
  4. For major changes, run grind compare-sdk-warnings and grind compare-flutter-warnings, and include the summary results in your pull request.
  5. Be sure to format your Dart code using dartfmt -w, otherwise travis will complain.
  6. Use grind presubmit before creating a pull request to quickly check for common problems.
  7. Post your change via a pull request for review and integration!

Testing

dartdoc has a number of grinder utility methods that can be used to check for behavior changes or try out your change on arbitrary packages.

# Serve the latest version of the given package locally on port 9000.

# Build the SDK docs with the head version and compare its warning
# output and (rough) performance to the main version.
