We take pride in supporting many operating systems and architectures. We take pride in supporting many operating systems and architectures. Any code
you contribute must at least compile without warnings for all platforms in the
CI. However, you can use `#[cfg(...)]` attributes to create platform dependent features.

<https://developer.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/virtual-machines/> <https://developer.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/virtual-machines/>
## Tools
We have an extensive CI that will check your code before it can be merged. This
section explains how to run those checks locally to avoid waiting for the CI.
### pre-commit hooks
A configuration for `pre-commit` is provided in the repository. It allows
automatically checking every git commit you make to ensure it compiles, and
passes `clippy` and `rustfmt` without warnings.
To use the provided hook:
1. [Install `pre-commit`](https://pre-commit.com/#install)
1. Run `pre-commit install` while in the repository directory
Your git commits will then automatically be checked. If a check fails, an error
message will explain why, and your commit will be canceled. You can then make
the suggested changes, and run `git commit ...` again.
### clippy
```shell
cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features
```
The `msrv` key in the clippy configuration file `clippy.toml` is used to disable
lints pertaining to newer features by specifying the minimum supported Rust
version (MSRV).
### rustfmt
```shell
cargo fmt --all
```
### cargo-deny
This project uses [cargo-deny](https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/cargo-deny/) to
detect duplicate dependencies, checks licenses, etc. To run it locally, first
install it and then run with:
```
cargo deny --all-features check all
```
### Markdown linter
We use [markdownlint](https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint) to lint the
Markdown files in the repository.
### Spell checker
We use `cspell` as spell checker for all files in the project. If you are using
VS Code, you can install the
[code spell checker](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=streetsidesoftware.code-spell-checker)
extension to enable spell checking within your editor. Otherwise, you can
install [cspell](https://cspell.org/) separately.
If you want to make the spell checker ignore a word, you can add
```rust
// spell-checker:ignore word_to_ignore
```
at the top of the file.
## Testing
Testing can be done using either Cargo or `make`.
### Testing with Cargo
Just like with building, we follow the standard procedure for testing using
Cargo:
```shell
cargo test
```
By default, `cargo test` only runs the common programs. To run also platform
specific tests, run:
```shell
cargo test --features unix
```
If you would prefer to test a select few utilities:
```shell
cargo test --features "chmod mv tail" --no-default-features
```
If you also want to test the core utilities:
```shell
cargo test -p uucore -p coreutils
```
To debug:
```shell
gdb --args target/debug/coreutils ls
(gdb) b ls.rs:79
(gdb) run
```
### Testing with GNU Make
To simply test all available utilities:
```shell
make test
```
To test all but a few of the available utilities:
```shell
make SKIP_UTILS='UTILITY_1 UTILITY_2' test
```
To test only a few of the available utilities:
```shell
make UTILS='UTILITY_1 UTILITY_2' test
```
To include tests for unimplemented behavior:
```shell
make UTILS='UTILITY_1 UTILITY_2' SPEC=y test
```
### Run Busybox Tests
This testing functionality is only available on *nix operating systems and
requires `make`.
To run busybox tests for all utilities for which busybox has tests
```shell
make busytest
```
To run busybox tests for a few of the available utilities
```shell
make UTILS='UTILITY_1 UTILITY_2' busytest
```
To pass an argument like "-v" to the busybox test runtime
```shell
make UTILS='UTILITY_1 UTILITY_2' RUNTEST_ARGS='-v' busytest
```
### Comparing with GNU
To run uutils against the GNU test suite locally, run the following commands:
```shell
bash util/build-gnu.sh
bash util/run-gnu-test.sh
# To run a single test:
bash util/run-gnu-test.sh tests/touch/not-owner.sh # for example
# To run several tests:
bash util/run-gnu-test.sh tests/touch/not-owner.sh tests/rm/no-give-up.sh # for example
# If this is a perl (.pl) test, to run in debug:
DEBUG=1 bash util/run-gnu-test.sh tests/misc/sm3sum.pl
```
Note that it relies on individual utilities (not the multicall binary).
### Improving the GNU compatibility
The Python script `./util/remaining-gnu-error.py` shows the list of failing
tests in the CI.
To improve the GNU compatibility, the following process is recommended:
1. Identify a test (the smaller, the better) on a program that you understand or
is easy to understand. You can use the `./util/remaining-gnu-error.py` script
to help with this decision.
1. Build both the GNU and Rust coreutils using: `bash util/build-gnu.sh`
1. Run the test with `bash util/run-gnu-test.sh <your test>`
1. Start to modify `<your test>` to understand what is wrong. Examples:
1. Add `set -v` to have the bash verbose mode
1. Add `echo $?` where needed
1. When the variable `fail` is used in the test, `echo $fail` to see when the
test started to fail
1. Bump the content of the output (ex: `cat err`)
1. ...
1. Or, if the test is simple, extract the relevant information to create a new
test case running both GNU & Rust implementation
1. Start to modify the Rust implementation to match the expected behavior
1. Add a test to make sure that we don't regress (our test suite is super quick)

# Documentation
The source of the documentation is available on:
<https://uutils.github.io/dev/coreutils/>
The documentation is updated everyday on this repository:
<https://github.com/uutils/uutils.github.io/>
## Running GNU tests
<!-- spell-checker:ignore gnulib -->
- Check out <https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils> next to your fork as gnu
- Check out <https://github.com/coreutils/gnulib> next to your fork as gnulib
- Rename the checkout of your fork to uutils
At the end you should have uutils, gnu and gnulib checked out next to each other.
- Run `cd uutils && ./util/build-gnu.sh && cd ..` to get everything ready (this may take a while)
- Finally, you can run tests with `bash uutils/util/run-gnu-test.sh <tests>`. Instead of `<tests>` insert the tests you want to run, e.g. `tests/misc/wc-proc.sh`.
## Code Coverage Report Generation
<!-- spell-checker:ignore (flags) Ccodegen Coverflow Cpanic Zinstrument Zpanic -->

```
if changes are not reflected in the report then run `cargo clean` and run the above commands.

then add `-Z-Zinstrument-coverage` flag to `RUSTFLAGS` env variable specified above.

## Using Clippy
The `msrv` key in the clippy configuration file `clippy.toml` is used to disable lints pertaining to newer features by specifying the minimum supported Rust version (MSRV). However, this key is only supported on `nightly`. To invoke clippy without errors, use `cargo +nightly clippy`. In order to also check tests and non-default crate features, use `cargo +nightly clippy --all-targets --all-features`.
## Markdown linter
We use <https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint> to lint the Markdown files.
