Rich Bowen created LUCENE-10513: ----------------------------------- Summary: Make it more obvious how to fix Spotless issues for new users Key: LUCENE-10513 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-10513 Project: Lucene - Core Issue Type: Task Reporter: Rich Bowen
I just made my first PR to Lucene (yay me!) and in the process stumbled on various things that were non-obvious. I request, for The Next Person, that the error messaging in `gradlew` make it more obvious that one should run `./gradlew tidy` the first time around, so as to avoid the low-hanging formatting problems that cause everything else to fail. During the course of my fumbling around, I was encouraged to run: ./gradlew :lucene:suggest:spotlessJavaCheck ./gradlew :lucene:suggest:spotlessApply ./gradlew :lucene:test-framework:spotlessApply and ./gradlew check -Ptests.nightly=true various times, by the error messages in `./gradlew check`, and while I got there eventually (again, yay me!) perhaps encouraging folks to run `./gradlew tidy` first may have saved some frustration. That said, I cannot overstate how impressed I am with the thoroughness of the testing/verification tools, and wish more projects had this kind of tooling. Thank you. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@lucene.apache.org
