# Contributing
Contributors are very welcome! **No contribution is too small and all contributions are valued.**
## Rust
You'll need to have the stable Rust toolchain installed in order to develop Managarr.
The Rust toolchain (stable) can be installed via rustup using the following command:
```shell
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
```
This will install `rustup`, `rustc` and `cargo`. For more information, refer to the [official Rust installation documentation](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install).
## Commitizen
[Commitizen](https://github.com/commitizen-tools/commitizen?tab=readme-ov-file) is a nifty tool that helps us write better commit messages. It ensures that our
commits have a consistent style and makes it easier to generate CHANGELOGS. Additionally,
Commitizen is used to run pre-commit checks to enforce style constraints.
To install `commitizen` and the `pre-commit` prerequisite, run the following command:
```shell
python3 -m pip install commitizen pre-commit
```
### Commitizen Quick Guide
To see an example commit to get an idea for the Commitizen style, run:
```shell
cz example
```
To see the allowed types of commits and their descriptions, run:
```shell
cz info
```
If you'd like to create a commit using Commitizen with an interactive prompt to help you get
comfortable with the style, use:
```shell
cz commit
```
## Setup workspace
1. Clone this repo
2. Run `cargo test` to setup hooks
3. Make changes
4. Run the application using `make run` or `cargo run`
5. Commit changes. This will trigger pre-commit hooks that will run format, test and lint. If there are errors or warnings from Clippy, please fix them.
6. Push your code to a new branch named after the feature/bug/etc. you're adding. This will trigger pre-push hooks that will run lint and test.
7. Create a PR
