Issues

The issue tracker is available on the GitHub repository. Don't be shy. Please report any issues that you identify so that we can address them.

Source contributions

Contributions are welcomed. Submit your changes as a GitHub pull request. Please add new tests for source contributions that our current test suite does not cover.

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/chrissimpkins/vectora.git

Testing

The project is tested with the latest GitHub Actions macOS, Linux (Ubuntu), and Windows environment runners using the stable and beta rustc toolchains.

Unit and doc test suite

Edit the source files, then run the unit and doc test suite locally with the command:

cargo test

Unit tests only

cargo test --lib

Doc tests only

cargo test --doc

Clippy lints

Clippy lints are not executed with the above commands. Use the following to lint Rust source files with clippy:

cargo clippy -- -D warnings

Fuzzing

This crate supports cargo fuzz + libFuzzer based fuzzing with the nightly rustc toolchain in supported environments.

Install the rustc nightly toolchain.

Then, install cargo-fuzz with:

cargo +nightly install -f cargo-fuzz

Edit the fuzz target source in the fuzz/fuzz_vectora.rs file and begin fuzzing with the command:

cargo +nightly fuzz run fuzz_vectora

Please see the Fuzzing with cargo-fuzz chapter of the Rust Fuzz book for additional documentation.

Documentation contributions

The docs.rs documentation is authored in the Rust source files. Edit the text and build a local version of the project documentation for review with the command:

cargo doc

The documentation index.html page can be found on the following relative path from the repository's root: target/doc/vectora/index.html.

Submit your doc edits as a GitHub pull request.
