Development Setup

1. Install git:

   For instructions see https://git-scm.com/.

2. To setup your development environment, first install Docker and Docker-Compose.

3. Fork the project:

   Click the "fork" button on the top of this repository (repo) to create a copy of the project for you to work on. You will need a GitHub account. This will allow you to make a "Pull Request" (PR) to this repo later on.

4. Clone your fork to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/cv_constructor.git
   

   GitHub will provide both a SSH and HTTPS url for cloning. You can use SSH if you have SSH keys setup.

5. Change the directory to enter the project folder:

   cd cv_constructor
   

6. Add the upstream repository:

   git remote add https://github.com/to-sta/cv_constructor.git
   

   [!INFO] With the command git remote -v you can check if it was successful. You should see two remote repos named origin and upstream.

7. Install Pre-commit:

   pre-commit install
   

   This will ensure during development that each of your commits is properly formatted against our linter and formatters.

8. Create a .env file and start your docker images with the following:

   cp .env.example .env
   docker-compose up
   # Or with new dependencies:
   # docker-compose up --build
   

9. Then you are able to visit the frontend and backend on:

   • frontend: http://localhost:5174
   • backend: http://localhost:8000

Develop your contribution

1. Checkout your local repo's main branch and pull the latest changes from the upstream, into your local repo:

   git checkout main
   git pull
   

2. Create a seperate branch for your contribution:

   git branch <name-of-the-branch>
   git checkout <name-of-the-branch>
   

3. Write some code :smiley:

Submit your Pull request

1. Update your fork on GitHub to reflect your local changes

   git push -u origin <branch name>
   

2. Make a pull request on GitHub :rocket:
