Contributions and pull requests are very welcome. Please follow these guidelines when submitting new code.
- Make all changes in Coffeescript files, not JavaScript files.
- For feature changes, update both jQuery and Prototype versions
- Use 'cake build' to generate Chosen's JavaScript file and minified version.
- Don't touch the VERSION file
- Submit a Pull Request using GitHub.
First, make sure you have the proper CoffeeScript / Cake set-up in place.
- Install Coffeescript: the CoffeeScript documentation provides easy-to-follow instructions.
- Install UglifyJS:
npm -g install uglify-js - Verify that your $NODE_PATH is properly configured using
echo $NODE_PATH; e.g. /usr/lib/node_modules
Once you're configured, building the JavasScript from the command line is easy:
cake build # build Chosen from source
cake watch # watch coffee/ for changes and build Chosen
If you're interested, you can find the recipes in Cakefile.
