Developing Oragono

Most development happens on the develop branch, which is occasionally rebased + merged into master when it’s not incredibly broken. When this happens, the develop branch is usually pruned until I feel like making ‘unsafe’ changes again.

I may also name the branch develop+feature if I’m developing multiple, or particularly unstable, features.

The intent is to keep master relatively stable.

Updating vendor/

The vendor/ directory holds our dependencies. When we import new pages, we need to update this folder to contain these new deps.

To update this folder:

  1. Install https://github.com/dpw/vendetta
  2. cd to Oragono folder
  3. vendetta -u -p
  4. Commit the result with the message "vendor: Updated submodules"

This will make sure things stay nice and up-to-date for users.

/vendor on Windows

Vendetta on Windows is broken, keep this in mind while updating deps. For reference, see dpw/vendetta#17.

Fuzzing and Testing

Fuzzing can be useful. We don’t have testing done inside the IRCd itself, but this fuzzer I’ve written works alright and has helped shake out various bugs: irc_fuzz.py.

In addition, I’ve got the beginnings of a stress-tester here which is useful: https://github.com/DanielOaks/irc-stress-test

As well, there’s a decent set of ‘tests’ here, which I like to run Oragono through now and then: https://github.com/DanielOaks/irctest
