Contribution guidelines

This project intends to use conventional commit messages and the gitflow workflow.

Please open your pull requests on the dev branch :)

Scaphandre is a not only a tool, but a framework. Modules dedicated to collect energy consumption data from the host are called Sensors. Modules that are dedicated to send this data to a given channel or remote system are called Exporters. New Sensors and Exporters are going to be created and all contributions are welcome. For more on the internal structure please jump here.

Edit and build the documentation

Documentation source files are in docs_src, edit the content there and propose pull-requests on the scaphandre repository as if it was a code pull-request.

Here is how to build and publish the documentation after a change. First download mdbook, the static site generator we use for the documentation website:

cargo install mdbook

Then fork the scaphandre-documentation repository and clone the resulting repository locally.

Place the resulting documentation folder next to scaphandre's folder. Then run the build:

cd scaphandre && mdbook build

You should then have the result in scaphandre-documentation/docs. Commit, push and propose a PR to publish the changes.

You can also serve the current content locally to see your changes before commit:

mdbook serve
