Coding style rules

• Prefer using strong typing
• Prefer using type hinting for the first time the variable is declared, and for functions paremeters and return types
• Use -> None to explicitly indicate no return value

Ideas

• Recommended to integrate your IDE with PEP8 to highlight PEP8 violations in real-time
• Enforcing PEP8 via pylint flake8 pycodestyle and via pre commit hooks

Writing New testcases

• Just create a file ending with _test.py in tests directory
  • Any subclass of BaseTest with name ending with Test will be executed
  • see run_tests and get_testcases in core/runner.py for more info

Setup

Requires python 3.9 or later.

Setup for macOS / Linux

Install tmux

• You need to have tmux installed. See https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki

Python virtual env setup

# cd to this directory
cd <path/to/here>
python3 -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/pip install --upgrade pip
.venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt

Make sure you build spf

# cd to the superfile repo root (parent of this)
cd <superfile_root>
./build.sh

Running testsuite

.venv/bin/python3 main.py

Setup for Windows

Coming soon.

Python virtual env setup

# cd to this directory
cd <path/to/here>

# If your python command refers to python3, you can use 'python' below
python3 -m venv .venv
.venv\Scripts\python -m pip install --upgrade pip
.venv\Scripts\pip install -r requirements.txt

Make sure you build spf

# cd to the superfile repo root (parent of this)
cd <superfile_root>
go build -o bin/spf.exe

Running testsuite

Notes

• You must keep your focus on the terminal for the entire duration of test run. pyautogui sends keypress to process on focus.

.venv\Scripts\python main.py

Tips while running tests

• Use -d or --debug to enable debug logs during test run.
• If you see flakiness in test runs due to superfile being still open, consider using --close-wait-time options to increase wait time for superfile to close. Note : For now we have enforcing superfile to close within a specific time window in tests to reduce test flakiness
• Make sure that your hotkeys are set to default hotkeys. Tests use default hotkeys for now.
• Use -t or --tests to only run specific tests
  • Example python main.py -d -t RenameTest CopyTest
• If you see libtmux errors like libtmux.exc.LibTmuxException: ['no server running on /private/tmp/tmux-501/superfile'] Make sure your python version is up to date
