Branching

This project follows the Git Flow branching model. The master branch always reflects a production-ready state while the latest development is taking place in the develop branch.

To contribute to the project, create a new feature branch off of the develop branch and merge back into develop when complete. Do not merge directly into master.

Hot fixes should be created as a branch off of master and merged into both master and develop.

Branch naming convention: <jira-task-id>__<short-description>

Build

To build the project, run the following command:

cd nodejs

npm run build

It will generate the SDK in the nodejs/dist folder.

📦dist
 ┣ 📂cjs          # CommonJS build
 ┃ ┗ neru.js     # Entry point
 ┗ 📂esm          # ES Module build
 ┃ ┗ neru.js     # Entry point

Generating SDKs from the source code

Pre-Requisites

• neru-transpiler

Python SDK

To generate the Python SDK, run the following command:

pilo -l=python --input=nodejs/src --output=python/src --ignore='nodejs/src/bridge.ts' --namespace=nerualpha --clean=true

cp templates/python/* python/src/nerualpha

C# SDK

To generate the C# SDK, run the following command:

pilo -l=csharp --input=nodejs/src --output=dotnet --ignore='nodejs/src/bridge.ts' --namespace=Vonage.Neru --clean=true

cp templates/dotnet/* dotnet/Vonage.Neru

Releasing

• Create a release branch from develop branch, e.g release/v1.0.0
• Run tests locally by typing npm test in the nodejs folder
• Generate Python SDK by running npm run generate:python. This will generate the Python SDK from nodejs src code and copy it to the python folder
  • Test the Python SDK by running smoke tests against the source code
• Bump package version in nodejs and python SDKs manually or by running npm bumpVersion:[ major | minor | patch ] (requires python3, pip3, bumpver)
• Update CHANGELOG.md in nodejs folder
• Create a new release from the repository
  • Specify the tag name which is the version number e.g v1.0.0
  • Add a release title e.g v1.0.0
  • Add a description for the release
  • Publish the release. This will create a new release on GitHub and starts the release process using GitHub Actions for both nodejs and python SDKs
