It is a good idea to come up -with a synopsis that gives an idea of the application domain of the -package. In this example, this might give something like ``Manipulate -nucleotide sequence alignments'', which hopefully gives the user a better -idea of whether this is what they are looking for. - -Descriptions should take between five and ten lines. Use full sentences, -and avoid using acronyms without first introducing them. Please avoid -marketing phrases such as ``world-leading'', ``industrial-strength'', and -``next-generation'', and avoid superlatives like ``the most -advanced''---they are not helpful to users looking for a package and may -even sound suspicious. Instead, try to be factual, mentioning use cases and -features. - -@cindex Texinfo markup, in package descriptions -Descriptions can include Texinfo markup, which is useful to introduce -ornaments such as @code{@@code} or @code{@@dfn}, bullet lists, or hyperlinks -(@pxref{Overview,,, texinfo, GNU Texinfo}). However you should be careful -when using some characters for example @samp{@@} and curly braces which are -the basic special characters in Texinfo (@pxref{Special Characters,,, -texinfo, GNU Texinfo}). User interfaces such as @command{guix package ---show} take care of rendering it appropriately. - -Synopses and descriptions are translated by volunteers -@uref{http://translationproject.org/domain/guix-packages.html, at the -Translation Project} so that as many users as possible can read them in -their native language. User interfaces search them and display them in the -language specified by the current locale. - -To allow @command{xgettext} to extract them as translatable strings, -synopses and descriptions @emph{must be literal strings}.

To -avoid confusion and naming clashes with other programming languages, it -seems desirable that the name of a package for a Python module contains the -word @code{python}. - -Some modules are compatible with only one version of Python, others with -both. If the package Foo compiles only with Python 3, we name it -@code{python-foo}; if it compiles only with Python 2, we name it -@code{python2-foo}. If it is compatible with both versions, we create two -packages with the corresponding names. - -If a project already contains the word @code{python}, we drop this; for -instance, the module python-dateutil is packaged under the names -@code{python-dateutil} and @code{python2-dateutil}. If the project name -starts with @code{py} (e.g.@: @code{pytz}), we keep it and prefix it as -described above. - -@subsubsection Specifying Dependencies -@cindex inputs, for Python packages - -Dependency information for Python packages is usually available in the -package source tree, with varying degrees of accuracy: in the -@file{setup.py} file, in @file{requirements.txt}, or in @file{tox.ini}. - -Your mission, when writing a recipe for a Python package, is to map these -dependencies to the appropriate type of ``input'' (@pxref{package Reference, -inputs}). Although the @code{pypi} importer normally does a good job -(@pxref{Invoking guix import}), you may want to check the following check -list to determine which dependency goes where. - -@itemize - -@item -We currently package Python 2 with @code{setuptools} and @code{pip} -installed like Python 3.4 has per default. Thus you don't need to specify -either of these as an input. @command{guix lint} will warn you if you do. - -@item -Python dependencies required at run time go into @code{propagated-inputs}. -They are typically defined with the @code{install_requires} keyword in -@file{setup.py}, or in the @file{requirements.txt} file. - -@item -Python packages required only at build time---e.g., those listed with the -@code{setup_requires} keyword in @file{setup.py}---or only for -testing---e.g., those in @code{tests_require}---go into -@code{native-inputs}. The rationale is that (1) they do not need to be -propagated because they are not needed at run time, and (2) in a -cross-compilation context, it's the ``native'' input that we'd want. - -Examples are the @code{pytest}, @code{mock}, and @code{nose} test -frameworks. Of course if any of these packages is also required at -run-time, it needs to go to @code{propagated-inputs}. - -@item -Anything that does not fall in the previous categories goes to -@code{inputs}, for example programs or C libraries required for building -Python packages containing C extensions. - -@item -If a Python package has optional dependencies (@code{extras_require}), it is -up to you to decide whether to add them or not, based on their -usefulness/overhead ratio (@pxref{提交补丁, @command{guix size}}). - -@end itemize - - -@node Perl模块 -@subsection Perl模块 - -@cindex perl -Perl programs standing for themselves are named as any other package, using -the lowercase upstream name. For Perl packages containing a single class, -we use the lowercase class name, replace all occurrences of @code{::} by -dashes and prepend the prefix @code{perl-}. So the class @code{XML::Parser} -becomes @code{perl-xml-parser}. Modules containing several classes keep -their lowercase upstream name and are also prepended by @code{perl-}. Such -modules tend to have the word @code{perl} somewhere in their name, which -gets dropped in favor of the prefix. For instance, @code{libwww-perl} -becomes @code{perl-libwww}. - - -@node Java包 -@subsection Java包 - -@cindex java -Java programs standing for themselves are named as any other package, using -the lowercase upstream name. - -To avoid confusion and naming clashes with other programming languages, it -is desirable that the name of a package for a Java package is prefixed with -@code{java-}. If a project already contains the word @code{java}, we drop -this; for instance, the package @code{ngsjava} is packaged under the name -@code{java-ngs}. - -For Java packages containing a single class or a small class hierarchy, we -use the lowercase class name, replace all occurrences of @code{.} by dashes -and prepend the prefix @code{java-}. So the class @code{apache.commons.cli} -becomes package @code{java-apache-commons-cli}. - - -@node 字体 -@subsection 字体 - -@cindex fonts -For fonts that are in general not installed by a user for typesetting -purposes, or that are distributed as part of a larger software package, we -rely on the general packaging rules for software; for instance, this applies -to the fonts delivered as part of the X.Org system or fonts that are part of -TeX Live. - -To make it easier for a user to search for fonts, names for other packages -containing only fonts are constructed as follows, independently of the -upstream package name. - -The name of a package containing only one font family starts with -@code{font-}; it is followed by the foundry name and a dash @code{-} if the -foundry is known, and the font family name, in which spaces are replaced by -dashes (and as usual, all upper case letters are transformed to lower -case). For example, the Gentium font family by SIL is packaged under the -name @code{font-sil-gentium}. - -For a package containing several font families, the name of the collection -is used in the place of the font family name. For instance, the Liberation -fonts consist of three families, Liberation Sans, Liberation Serif and -Liberation Mono. These could be packaged separately under the names -@code{font-liberation-sans} and so on; but as they are distributed together -under a common name, we prefer to package them together as -@code{font-liberation}. - -In the case where several formats of the same font family or font collection -are packaged separately, a short form of the format, prepended by a dash, is -added to the package name. We use @code{-ttf} for TrueType fonts, -@code{-otf} for OpenType fonts and @code{-type1} for PostScript Type 1 -fonts. - - -@node 代码风格 -@section 代码风格 - -In general our code follows the GNU Coding Standards (@pxref{Top,,, -standards, GNU Coding Standards}).

They must not refer to other Guix -or GNU modules. However, it is OK for a ``host-side'' module to use a -build-side module. - -Modules that deal with the broader GNU system should be in the @code{(gnu -@dots{})} name space rather than @code{(guix @dots{})}. - -@node Data Types and Pattern Matching -@subsection Data Types and Pattern Matching - -The tendency in classical Lisp is to use lists to represent everything, and -then to browse them ``by hand'' using @code{car}, @code{cdr}, @code{cadr}, -and co. There are several problems with that style, notably the fact that -it is hard to read, error-prone, and a hindrance to proper type error -reports. - -Guix code should define appropriate data types (for instance, using -@code{define-record-type*}) rather than abuse lists. In addition, it should -use pattern matching, via Guile’s @code{(ice-9 match)} module, especially -when matching lists. - -@node Formatting Code -@subsection Formatting Code - -@cindex formatting code -@cindex coding style -When writing Scheme code, we follow common wisdom among Scheme programmers. -In general, we follow the @url{http://mumble.net/~campbell/scheme/style.txt, -Riastradh's Lisp Style Rules}.

Also note that -Emacs-Guix provides @code{guix-devel-mode} mode that indents and highlights -Guix code properly (@pxref{Development,,, emacs-guix, The Emacs-Guix -Reference Manual}). - -@cindex indentation, of code -@cindex formatting, of code -If you do not use Emacs, please make sure to let your editor knows these -rules. To automatically indent a package definition, you can also run: - -@example -./etc/indent-code.el gnu/packages/@var{file}.scm @var{package} -@end example - -@noindent -This automatically indents the definition of @var{package} in -@file{gnu/packages/@var{file}.scm} by running Emacs in batch mode. To -indent a whole file, omit the second argument: - -@example -./etc/indent-code.el gnu/services/@var{file}.scm -@end example - -@cindex Vim, Scheme code editing -If you are editing code with Vim, we recommend that you run @code{:set -autoindent} so that your code is automatically indented as you type. -Additionally, @uref{https://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=3998, -@code{paredit.vim}} may help you deal with all these parentheses. - -We require all top-level procedures to carry a docstring. This requirement -can be relaxed for simple private procedures in the @code{(guix build -@dots{})} name space, though. - -Procedures should not have more than four positional parameters. Use -keyword parameters for procedures that take more than four parameters. - - -@node 提交补丁 -@section 提交补丁 - -Development is done using the Git distributed version control system. Thus, -access to the repository is not strictly necessary. We welcome -contributions in the form of patches as produced by @code{git format-patch} -sent to the @email{guix-patches@@gnu.org} mailing list. - -This mailing list is backed by a Debbugs instance accessible at -@uref{https://bugs.gnu.org/guix-patches}, which allows us to keep track of -submissions. Each message sent to that mailing list gets a new tracking -number assigned; people can then follow up on the submission by sending -email to @code{@var{NNN}@@debbugs.gnu.org}, where @var{NNN} is the tracking -number (@pxref{Sending a Patch Series}). - -Please write commit logs in the ChangeLog format (@pxref{Change Logs,,, -standards, GNU Coding Standards}); you can check the commit history for -examples. - -Before submitting a patch that adds or modifies a package definition, please -run through this check list: - -@enumerate -@item -If the authors of the packaged software provide a cryptographic signature -for the release tarball, make an effort to verify the authenticity of the -archive. For a detached GPG signature file this would be done with the -@code{gpg --verify} command. - -@item -Take some time to provide an adequate synopsis and description for the -package. @xref{简介和描述}, for some guidelines. - -@item -Run @code{guix lint @var{package}}, where @var{package} is the name of the -new or modified package, and fix any errors it reports (@pxref{Invoking guix -lint}). - -@item -Make sure the package builds on your platform, using @code{guix build -@var{package}}. - -@item -We recommend you also try building the package on other supported -platforms. As you may not have access to actual hardware platforms, we -recommend using the @code{qemu-binfmt-service-type} to emulate them. In -order to enable it, add the following service to the list of services in -your @code{operating-system} configuration: - -@example -(service qemu-binfmt-service-type - (qemu-binfmt-configuration - (platforms (lookup-qemu-platforms "arm" "aarch64" "mips64el")) - (guix-support? #t))) -@end example - -Then reconfigure your system. - -You can then build packages for different platforms by specifying the -@code{--system} option. For example, to build the "hello" package for the -armhf, aarch64, or mips64 architectures, you would run the following -commands, respectively: -@example -guix build --system=armhf-linux --rounds=2 hello -guix build --system=aarch64-linux --rounds=2 hello -guix build --system=mips64el-linux --rounds=2 hello -@end example - -@item -@cindex bundling -Make sure the package does not use bundled copies of software already -available as separate packages. - -Sometimes, packages include copies of the source code of their dependencies -as a convenience for users. However, as a distribution, we want to make -sure that such packages end up using the copy we already have in the -distribution, if there is one. This improves resource usage (the dependency -is built and stored only once), and allows the distribution to make -transverse changes such as applying security updates for a given software -package in a single place and have them affect the whole system---something -that bundled copies prevent. - -@item -Take a look at the profile reported by @command{guix size} (@pxref{Invoking -guix size}). This will allow you to notice references to other packages -unwillingly retained. It may also help determine whether to split the -package (@pxref{Packages with Multiple Outputs}), and which optional -dependencies should be used. In particular, avoid adding @code{texlive} as -a dependency: because of its extreme size, use @code{texlive-tiny} or -@code{texlive-union} instead. - -@item -For important changes, check that dependent package (if applicable) are not -affected by the change; @code{guix refresh --list-dependent @var{package}} -will help you do that (@pxref{Invoking guix refresh}). - -@c See <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2016-10/msg00933.html>. -@cindex branching strategy -@cindex rebuild scheduling strategy -Depending on the number of dependent packages and thus the amount of -rebuilding induced, commits go to different branches, along these lines: - -@table @asis -@item 300 dependent packages or less -@code{master} branch (non-disruptive changes). - -@item between 300 and 1,200 dependent packages -@code{staging} branch (non-disruptive changes). This branch is intended to -be merged in @code{master} every 3 weeks or so. Topical changes (e.g., an -update of the GNOME stack) can instead go to a specific branch (say, -@code{gnome-updates}). - -@item more than 1,200 dependent packages -@code{core-updates} branch (may include major and potentially disruptive -changes). This branch is intended to be merged in @code{master} every 2.5 -months or so. -@end table - -All these branches are @uref{https://hydra.gnu.org/project/gnu, tracked by -our build farm} and merged into @code{master} once everything has been -successfully built. This allows us to fix issues before they hit users, and -to reduce the window during which pre-built binaries are not available. - -@c TODO: It would be good with badges on the website that tracks these -@c branches. Or maybe even a status page. -Generally, branches other than @code{master} are considered @emph{frozen} if -there has been a recent evaluation, or there is a corresponding @code{-next} -branch. Please ask on the mailing list or IRC if unsure where to place a -patch. - -@item -@cindex determinism, of build processes -@cindex reproducible builds, checking -Check whether the package's build process is deterministic. This typically -means checking whether an independent build of the package yields the exact -same result that you obtained, bit for bit. - -A simple way to do that is by building the same package several times in a -row on your machine (@pxref{Invoking guix build}): - -@example -guix build --rounds=2 my-package -@end example - -This is enough to catch a class of common non-determinism issues, such as -timestamps or randomly-generated output in the build result. - -Another option is to use @command{guix challenge} (@pxref{Invoking guix -challenge}). You may run it once the package has been committed and built -by @code{@value{SUBSTITUTE-SERVER}} to check whether it obtains the same -result as you did. Better yet: Find another machine that can build it and -run @command{guix publish}. Since the remote build machine is likely -different from yours, this can catch non-determinism issues related to the -hardware---e.g., use of different instruction set extensions---or to the -operating system kernel---e.g., reliance on @code{uname} or @file{/proc} -files. - -@item -When writing documentation, please use gender-neutral wording when referring -to people, such as @uref{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_they, -singular ``they''@comma{} ``their''@comma{} ``them''}, and so forth. - -@item -Verify that your patch contains only one set of related changes. Bundling -unrelated changes together makes reviewing harder and slower. - -Examples of unrelated changes include the addition of several packages, or a -package update along with fixes to that package. - -@item -Please follow our code formatting rules, possibly running the -@command{etc/indent-code.el} script to do that automatically for you -(@pxref{Formatting Code}). - -@item -When possible, use mirrors in the source URL (@pxref{Invoking guix -download}). Use reliable URLs, not generated ones. For instance, GitHub -archives are not necessarily identical from one generation to the next, so -in this case it's often better to clone the repository. Don't use the -@command{name} field in the URL: it is not very useful and if the name -changes, the URL will probably be wrong. - -@end enumerate - -When posting a patch to the mailing list, use @samp{[PATCH] @dots{}} as a -subject.
