+First of all, please try to follow the style of the existing dygraphs +code. This will make the review process go much more smoothly.
+ +
A few salient points:
++
+ +- We try to adhere to Google's + JS style guide and would appreciate it if you try to as well. This + means: +
+
+ +- No tabs! Indent using two spaces. +
- Use camelCase for variable and function names. +
- Limit lines to 80 characters. +
- Please run 'lint.sh' to see if you've introduced any new violations. + +
- If you've added a new feature, add a test for it (in the tests/ + directory) or a gallery entry. + +
- If you've added an option, document it in + dygraph-options-reference.js. You'll get lots of warnings if you don't. + +
- If you've fixed a bug or added a feature, add an auto_test for + it.
+ This ensures that we won't inadvertently break your feature in the + future. To do this, either add to an existing auto_test in + auto_tests/tests or run +auto_tests/misc/new-test.sh your-test-name
to + create a new one. There are two easy ways to run tests: ++
+- You can run your auto_test in any browser by visiting +
auto_tests/misc/local.html
. This allows you to debug your + test, or test against a specific browser. +- You can run your auto_test on the command-line by running +
./test.sh
