Contributing to Talisman

By contributing to Talisman, you agree to abide by the code of conduct.

How to start contributing

If you are not sure how to begin contributing to Talisman, have a look at the issues tagged under good first issue.

Developing locally

To contribute to Talisman, you need a working golang development environment. Check this link to help you get started with that.

Talisman now uses go modules (GO111MODULE=on) to manage dependencies

Once you have go 1.11 installed and setup, clone the talisman repository. In your working copy, fetch the dependencies by having go mod fetch them for you.

GO111MODULE=on go mod vendor

To run tests GO111MODULE=on go test -mod=vendor ./...

To build Talisman, we can use gox:

gox -osarch="darwin/amd64 linux/386 linux/amd64"

Convenience scripts ./build and ./clean perform build and clean-up as mentioned above.

Releasing

  • Follow the instructions at the end of 'Developing locally' to build the binaries
  • Bump the version in install.sh according to semver conventions
  • Update the expected hashes in install.sh to match the new binaries you just created (shasum -b -a256 ...)
  • Make release commit and tag with the new version prefixed by v (like git tag v0.3.0)
  • Push your release commit and tag: git push && git push --tags

The latest version will now be accessible to anyone who builds their own binaries, downloads binaries directly from github releases, or uses the install script from the website.
