Main Features

Tech Debt Framework

Slides PyCon US 2025 Talk: Scaling the Mountain: A Framework for Tackling Large-Scale Tech Debt

Create GitHub Checks for Enhanced Developer Experiences

• Simplified Results: View linter or test results in a dedicated check page, eliminating the need to sift through console output.
• Inline Annotations: View linter or test errors as annotations on GitHub Pull Requests, making it easier to understand errors in the context of the code.
• Autofix Support: Apply auto-fixes with a single click. This feature requires setting up a web service to receive GitHub webhook events and apply the autofix on the PR.
• Slack Notifications: Sends Slack notifications on check failures based on a provided mapping from GitHub login to Slack user ID. A SLACK_BOT_TOKEN and a GitHub login to Slack user ID mapping file are needed.

Examples

• Check Run Example
• File Annotations Example

Available Checks

The following checks are available and can be configured in a CI workflow e.g. build.yml file. Ensure to provide the necessary environment variables (APP_ID, PRIVATE_KEY, PULL_NUMBER, SLACK_BOT_TOKEN (optional)).

checks/annotate_ruff.py Module

• Ruff Integration: Runs Ruff formatter and linter, parses the output, and creates GitHub check runs with annotations and actions.
• Autofix Support: Provides an autofix action to automatically fix issues detected by Ruff.

checks/annotate_pytest.py Module

• Pytest Integration: Parses Pytest JSON reports and creates GitHub check runs with annotations for failed tests.

checks/annotate_pyright.py Module

• Pyright Integration: Runs Pyright type checker, parses the output, and creates GitHub check runs with annotations and actions.
• Autofix Support: Provides an autofix action to automatically fix issues detected by Pyright.

Getting Started (For Developers)

Prerequisites

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/ZipHQ/bar-raiser.git
   

2. Install PDM:

   pip install pdm
   

3. Install dependencies in a local .venv folder:

   pdm install
   

4. Install pre-commit hooks:

   pdm run pre-commit install
   

Dependencies

The project uses the following dependencies:

• PyGithub (MIT License): A Python library to access the GitHub API v3.
• GitPython (BSD License): A Python library used to interact with Git repositories.
• cryptography (Apache License 2.0 or BSD License): A Python library providing cryptographic recipes and primitives.
• slackclient (MIT License): A Python library for interacting with the Slack API.

Development Dependencies

The project also includes development dependencies for testing, linting, and code quality:

• pytest (MIT License): A framework that makes building simple and scalable test cases easy.
• diff-cover (MIT License): A tool for checking which lines of code are covered by tests.
• pytest-cov (MIT License): A plugin for measuring code coverage with pytest.
• ruff (MIT License): An extremely fast Python linter and formatter.
• pyright (MIT License): A static type checker for Python.
• pre-commit (MIT License): A framework for managing and maintaining multi-language pre-commit hooks.
• pytest-json-report (MIT License): A plugin for creating JSON reports with pytest.

Pre-commit Hooks

Pre-commit hooks are used to run checks automatically when you commit code. These checks help ensure code quality and consistency. The following hooks are configured:

• Trailing whitespace removal
• End-of-file fixer
• YAML file checks
• Large file checks
• PDM lock file check
• PDM sync
• Ruff for linting and formatting
• Pyright for type checking
• Pytest for running tests with coverage

To manually run the pre-commit hooks on all files, use:

pdm run pre-commit run --all-files

Running Tests

To execute the test suite, run:

pdm run pytest

API Changes

• CI Interface: The CI interface will be maintained for compatibility until the next major version release.
• Python API: The Python API is still under development, and backward compatibility may change at any time.

Contributing

1. Fork the repository.
2. Create a new branch (git checkout -b feature-branch).
3. Make your changes.
4. Commit your changes (git commit -m 'Add some feature').
5. Push to the branch (git push origin feature-branch).
6. Open a pull request.

Coding Standards

• Follow the existing code style.
• Write unit tests for new features.
• Ensure all tests pass before submitting a pull request.

Making a Release

To make a release, follow these steps:

1. Ensure all changes are committed and pushed to the main branch.
2. Create a new tag for the release:

   git tag -a vX.Y.Z -m "Release version X.Y.Z"
   git push origin vX.Y.Z
   

3. The GitHub release workflow will automatically build and publish the release based on the tagged commit.
