Add contribution guide
Closed this issue · 5 comments
Hey, I started creating a very similar extension, but before pushing to a git repository found your repo by looking at this issue: coverlet-coverage/coverlet#32. I figured instead of creating a competing project, I could contribute to yours. Unfortunately, I am having trouble getting your project to compile for me because of the coverlet.console package. I am looking for advice on contributing and how to get started. Should I be waiting until coverlet-coverage/coverlet#212 is resolved to contribute that way it is published publicly. I tried publishing it myself but had an issue since it is .net core not .net standard. Let me know how to get started with contributions. Thanks.
Oh Hi. Yes sorry for late reply. I was busy with with real life.
That package is an "unofficial" package I made from the real source code. I have contacted the guy from Coverlet if I can publish it but he does not reply.
Currently I am hosting it privately- will need some work to go public
I am happy you would like to contribute. I hope its not too late. Please let me sort out a open PR I am not sure what I did last time and need to catch up
I have added a public NuGet for Coverlet.Core that I will be using.
It is on my own decision to publish it.. if tonerdo changes his mind and does his own version I will pull this package and update accordingly
Thanks, I am busy this week but I am gonna take a look this weekend and possibly put up a couple MRs if I can get it building now that the package is available.
I am in process of trying to update my source to use that package. will update master once I get it compiling
I made a forked version of Coverlet.Core and published it under piotrkula.coverlet.core but I will update the reference in the project so this should not be a problem any more.
Also I forked the latest version of Coverlet.Core which has a few extra parameters it want on the constructor so it wont build straight away. This plugin will probably not benefit from any of those things and is just a line fix to get going again. Will PR that soon
I went to a machine I never used for developing PrestoCoverage and documented what I needed to do to get it running and made this quick guide. Should get you going.
