Notes for contributors

1. Python hooks are supported now too. All you have to do is:
   1. add a line to the console_scripts array in entry_points in setup.py
   2. Put your python script in the pre_commit_hooks folder

Enjoy the clean, valid, and documented code!

• Run and debug hooks locally
• Run hook performance test
  • Run via BASH
  • Run via Docker
  • Check results
  • Cleanup
• Add new hook
  • Before write code
  • Prepare basic documentation
  • Add code
  • Finish with the documentation

Run and debug hooks locally

pre-commit try-repo {-a} /path/to/local/pre-commit-opentofu/repo {hook_name}

I.e.

pre-commit try-repo /mnt/c/Users/tf/pre-commit-opentofu tofu_fmt # Run only `tofu_fmt` check
pre-commit try-repo -a ~/pre-commit-opentofu # run all existing checks from repo

Running pre-commit with try-repo ignores all arguments specified in .pre-commit-config.yaml.

If you need to test hook with arguments, follow pre-commit doc to test hooks.

For example, to test that the tofu_fmt hook works fine with arguments:

/tmp/pre-commit-opentofu/tofu_fmt.sh --args=-diff --args=-write=false test-dir/main.tf test-dir/vars.tf

Run hook performance test

To check is your improvement not violate performance, we have dummy execution time tests.

Script accept next options:

#	Name	Example value	Description
1	TEST_NUM	200	How many times need repeat test
2	TEST_COMMAND	'pre-commit try-repo -a /tmp/159/pre-commit-opentofu tofu_tfsec'	Valid pre-commit command
3	TEST_DIR	'/tmp/infrastructure'	Dir on what you run tests.
4	TEST_DESCRIPTION	'`tofu_tfsec` PR #123:'	Text that you'd like to see in result
5	RAW_TEST_ RESULTS_FILE_NAME	tofu_tfsec_pr123	(Temporary) File where all test data will be stored.

Note: To make test results repeatable and comparable, be sure that on the test machine nothing generates an unstable workload. During tests good to stop any other apps and do not interact with the test machine.

Otherwise, for eg, when you watch Youtube videos during one test and not during other, test results can differ up to 30% for the same test.

Run via BASH

# Install deps
sudo apt install -y datamash
# Run tests
./hooks_performance_test.sh 200 'pre-commit try-repo -a /tmp/159/pre-commit-opentofu tofu_tfsec' '/tmp/infrastructure' '`tofu_tfsec` v1.51.0:' 'tofu_tfsec_pr159'

Run via Docker

# Build `pre-commit-opentofu` image
docker build -t pre-commit-opentofu --build-arg INSTALL_ALL=true .
# Build test image
docker build -t pre-commit-tests tests/
# Run
TEST_NUM=1
TEST_DIR='/tmp/infrastructure'
PRE_COMMIT_DIR="$(pwd)"
TEST_COMMAND='pre-commit try-repo -a /pct tofu_tfsec'
TEST_DESCRIPTION='`tofu_tfsec` v1.51.0:'
RAW_TEST_RESULTS_FILE_NAME='tofu_tfsec_pr159'

docker run -v "$PRE_COMMIT_DIR:/pct:rw" -v "$TEST_DIR:/lint:ro" pre-commit-tests \
    $TEST_NUM "$TEST_COMMAND" '/lint' "$RAW_TEST_RESULTS_FILE_NAME" "$RAW_TEST_RESULTS_FILE_NAME"

Check results

Results will be located at ./test/results dir.

Cleanup

sudo rm -rf tests/results

Add new hook

You can use this PR as an example.

Before write code

1. Try to figure out future hook usage.
2. Confirm the concept with one of the following people: Alexander Sharov, Nikolay Mishin, Anastasiia Kozlova.

Prepare basic documentation

1. Identify and describe dependencies in Install dependencies and Available Hooks sections

Add code

1. Based on prev. block, add hook dependencies installation to Dockerfile.
   Check that works:
   • docker build -t pre-commit --build-arg INSTALL_ALL=true .
   • docker build -t pre-commit --build-arg <NEW_HOOK>_VERSION=latest .
   • docker build -t pre-commit --build-arg <NEW_HOOK>_VERSION=<1.2.3> .
2. Add Docker structure tests to .github/.container-structure-test-config.yaml
3. Add new hook to .pre-commit-hooks.yaml
4. Create hook file. Don't forget to make it executable via chmod +x /path/to/hook/file.
5. Test hook. How to do it is described in Run and debug hooks locally section.
6. Test hook one more time.

   1. Push commit with hook file to GitHub

   2. Grab SHA hash of the commit

   3. Test hook using .pre-commit-config.yaml:

      repos:
      - repo: https://github.com/tofuutils/pre-commit-opentofu # Your repo
      rev: 3d76da3885e6a33d59527eff3a57d246dfb66620 # Your commit SHA
      hooks:
        - id: terraform_docs # New hook name
          args:
            - --args=--config=.terraform-docs.yml # Some args that you'd like to test

Finish with the documentation

1. Add hook description to Available Hooks.
2. Create and populate a new hook section in Hooks usage notes and examples.
