Developing Locust
=================
You want to contribute to Locust? Great! Here is a list of `open bugs/feature requests <https://github.com/locustio/locust/issues>`_.
Install Locust for development
==============================
Fork Locust on `GitHub <https://github.com/locustio/locust/>`_ and then run
.. code-block:: console
$ git clone git://github.com/<YourName>/locust.git # clone the repo
$ pip3 install -e locust/ # install in editable mode
Now the ``locust`` command will run *your* code with no need for reinstalling after making changes.
To contribute your changes, push to a branch in your repo and then `open a PR on github <https://github.com/locustio/locust/compare>`_.
Before you open a pull request, make sure all the checks work. And if you are adding a feature, make sure it is documented (in ``docs/*.rst``).
Testing your changes
====================
We use `tox <https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`_ to automate tests across multiple Python versions:
.. code-block:: console
$ pip3 install tox
$ tox
...
py38: install_deps> python -I -m pip install cryptography mock pyquery retry
py38: commands[0]> python3 -m pip install .
...
py38: commands[1]> python3 -m unittest discover
...
To only run a specific suite or specific test you can call `pytest <https://docs.pytest.org/>`_ directly:
.. code-block:: console
$ pytest locust/test/test_main.py::DistributedIntegrationTests::test_distributed_tags
Formatting and linting
======================
Locust uses `ruff <https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/>`_ for formatting and linting. The build will fail if code does not adhere to it. If you run vscode it will automatically run every time you save a file, but if your editor doesn't support it you can run it manually:
.. code-block:: console
$ pip3 install ruff
$ python -m ruff --fix <file_or_folder_to_be_formatted>
$ python -m ruff format <file_or_folder_to_be_formatted>
You can validate the whole project using tox:
.. code-block:: console
$ tox -e ruff
ruff: install_deps> python -I -m pip install ruff==0.1.13
ruff: commands[0]> ruff check .
ruff: commands[1]> ruff format --check
104 files already formatted
ruff: OK (1.41=setup[1.39]+cmd[0.01,0.01] seconds)
congratulations :) (1.47 seconds)
Build documentation
===================
The documentation source is in the `docs/ <https://github.com/locustio/locust/tree/master/docs/>`_ directory. To build the documentation you first need to install the required Python packages:
.. code-block:: console
$ pip3 install -r docs/requirements.txt
Then you can build the documentation locally using:
.. code-block:: console
$ make build_docs
Then the documentation should be build and available at ``docs/_build/index.html``.
Making changes to Locust's Web UI
=================================
The modern Web UI is built using React and Typescript
Setup
-----
Node
````
Install node using nvm to easily switch between node version
- Copy and run the install line from `nvm <https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm>`_ (starts with curl/wget ...)
- Verify nvm was installed correctly
.. code-block:: console
$ nvm --version
- Install the proper Node version according to engines in the ``locust/webui/package.json``
.. code-block:: console
$ nvm install {version}
$ nvm alias default {version}
Yarn
````
- Install Yarn from their official website (avoid installing through Node if possible)
- Verify yarn was installed correctly
.. code-block:: console
$ yarn --version
- Next in web, install all dependencies
.. code-block:: console
$ cd locust/webui
$ yarn
Developing
----------
To develop the frontend, run ``yarn dev``. This will start the Vite dev server and allow for viewing and editing the frontend, without needing to a run a locust web server
To develop while running a locust instance, run ``yarn dev:watch``. This will output the static files to the ``dist`` directory. Vite will automatically detect any changed files and re-build as needed. Simply refresh the page to view the changes
To compile the webui, run ``yarn build``
The frontend can additionally be built using make:
.. code-block:: console
$ make frontend_build
Linting
-------
Run ``yarn lint`` to detect lint failures in the frontend project. Running ``yarn lint --fix`` will resolve any issues that are automatically resolvable. Your IDE can additionally be configured with ESLint to resolve these issues on save.
Formatting
----------
Run ``yarn format`` to fix any formatting issues in the frontend project. Once again your IDE can be configured to automatically format on save.
Typechecking
------------
We use Typescript in the frontend project. Run ``yarn type-check`` to find any issues.
