# Contributing to Haddock | ||
|
||
Thank you for contributing to Haddock! Here is the information you will need in | ||
order to make your contribution | ||
This repository used to host the Haskell documentation generation tool Haddock, which know lives at: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/tree/master/utils/haddock. | ||
|
||
## Code of Conduct | ||
Issues and PRs will be transfered to the Haskell gitlab. Please refrain from opening new tickets and PRs here. | ||
|
||
We need you to read, acknowledge, and abide by our [Code of Conduct][CoC]. | ||
Ask questions and chat with us at https://matrix.to/#/#haddock:matrix.org. | ||
|
||
## Reporting issues | ||
|
||
Please open a ticket if you get an unexpected behaviour from Haddock! | ||
You should ideally include a [Short, Self Contained, Correct (Compilable), Example][SSCCE] | ||
in your ticket, so that the maintainers may easily reproduce your issue. | ||
|
||
Here is a list of things you should include in your ticket | ||
|
||
* Your GHC version. | ||
|
||
* Your platform, OS and distribution if applicable. | ||
|
||
* Your cabal version if applicable. | ||
|
||
* Include any other info you think might be relevant (sandbox? unusual setup?). | ||
|
||
## Hacking | ||
|
||
To get started you'll need the latest GHC release installed. | ||
|
||
Clone the repository: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
git clone https://github.com/haskell/haddock.git | ||
cd haddock | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Git Branches | ||
|
||
If your patch consists of glue code and interface changes with GHC, please | ||
open a Pull Request targeting the `ghc-head` branch. | ||
|
||
Otherwise, for improvements to the documentation generator, | ||
please base your pull request on the current GHC version branch | ||
(`ghc-9.0` for instance). The PR will be forward-ported to `ghc-head` | ||
so that documentation built within GHC can benefit from it. | ||
|
||
### Building the packages | ||
|
||
#### Using `cabal` | ||
|
||
Requires cabal `>= 3.4` and GHC `== 9.4`: | ||
|
||
You can install the latest build of GHC via ghcup using this command: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
ghcup install ghc -u "https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/jobs/artifacts/master/raw/ghc-x86_64-deb9-linux-integer-simple.tar.xz?job=validate-x86_64-linux-deb9-integer-simple" head | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
cabal v2-build all --enable-tests | ||
cabal v2-test all | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Updating golden testsuite outputs | ||
|
||
If you've changed Haddock's output, you will probably need to accept the new | ||
output of Haddock's golden test suites (`html-test`, `latex-test`, | ||
`hoogle-test`, and `hypsrc-test`). This can be done by passing the `--accept` | ||
argument to these test suites. With a new enough version of `cabal-install`: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
cabal v2-test html-test latex-test hoogle-test hypsrc-test \ | ||
--test-option='--accept' | ||
``` | ||
|
