CONTRIBUTING.md

Contributing

When contributing to this repository, please first discuss the change you wish to make via issue, email, or any other method with the owners of this repository before making a change.

Please note we have a code of conduct, please follow it in all your interactions with the project. In general also try to be nice to others.

Pull Request Process

1. When fixing a bug, include one or more tests which prove that your changes are correct, and that they fix something wrong. When adding a feature, include tests that show it in practice.
2. Update the README.md with details of changes to the interface, this includes new environment variables, options, useful file locations and others.

Documentation

Every new feature and API change should be accompanied by a README addition.

Node version

To install Terser's dev dependencies and run tests locally, oftentimes you will need the latest stable version of node. This is the highest even numbered version that's available.

Testing

All features and bugs should have tests that verify the fix. You can run all tests using npm test.

There are two kinds of tests:

• compress tests, located in test/compress and run with npm run test:compress, optionally with a test file name argument.
• mocha-based tests, located in test/mocha and run with npm run test:mocha

To run both of these tests at once, use npm test.

The most common type of test are tests that verify input and output of the compress step. These tests exist in test/compress. New tests can be added either to an existing file or in a new file issue-xxx.js.

Tests that cannot be expressed as a simple AST can be found in test/mocha.

Code style

• File encoding must be UTF-8.
• LF is always used as a line ending.
• Statements end with semicolons.
• Indentation uses 4 spaces, switch case 2 spaces.
• Identifiers use snake_case.
• Strings use double quotes (").
• Use a trailing comma for multiline array and object literals to minimize diffs.
• Line length should be at most 80 cols, except when it is easier to read a longer line.
• Multiline conditions place && and || first on the line.
• Code must pass the lint (npm run lint, or npm run lint-fix for auto-fix).

Example feature

def_optimize(AST_Debugger, function(self, compressor) {
    if (compressor.option("drop_debugger"))
        return make_node(AST_EmptyStatement, self);
    return self;
});

Example test case

drop_debugger: {
    options = {
        drop_debugger: true,
    }
    input: {
        debugger;
        if (foo) debugger;
    }
    expect: {
        if (foo);
    }
}
