Take care of pesky code reviews with a trusty Hound.

Hound reviews GitHub pull requests for style guide violations. View the style guide →

Configure the Hound Service

We run Hound as a hosted service at houndci.com.

If you are setting up Hound for the first time, see the configuration page.

If you have questions about the service, see our FAQ or email [email protected].

Configure Hound on Your Local Development Environment

1. After cloning the repository, run the setup script ./bin/setup
2. Log into your GitHub account and go to the Application Settings under Account settings.
3. Under the GitHub Developer Applications panel - Click on "Register new application"
4. Fill in the application details:

• Application Name: Hound Development
• Homepage URL: http://localhost:5000
• Authorization Callback URL: http://localhost:5000

5. On the confirmation screen, copy the Client ID and Client Secret to .env. Note the setup script copies .sample.env to .env for you, if the file does not exist.
6. Generate the Stripe tokens and copy them into your .env file. Put the 'Test Secret Key' as the value for STRIPE_API_KEY and 'Test Publishable Key' as the value for STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY.
7. Create a Stripe plan called "private" for your development environment https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/plans

ID: "private" Name: "private"

8. Run foreman start. Foreman will start the web server, redis-server, and the resque background job queue. NOTE: rails server will not load the appropriate environment variables and you'll get a "Missing secret_key_base for 'development' environment" error.

Testing

1. Set up your development environment as per above.
2. Run rake to execute the full test suite.

Contributing

First, thank you for contributing!

Here a few guidelines to follow:

1. Write tests
2. Make sure the entire test suite passes locally and on Travis CI
3. Open a pull request on GitHub
4. Squash your commits after receiving feedback

There a couple areas we would like to concentrate on.

1. Add support for JavaScript
2. Add support for CSS and Sass
3. Write style guides that don't currently exist and would enforce the thoughtbot style guide.
