This directory just contains some tools that are useful when developing with Apprise. It is presumed that you've set yourself up with a working development environment before using the tools identified here:
```bash
# Using pip, setup a working development environment:
- :gear: `apprise`: This effectively acts as the `apprise` tool would once Apprise has been installed into your environment. However `apprise` uses the branch you're working in. So if you added a new Notification service, you can test with it as you would easily. `apprise` takes all the same parameters as the `apprise` tool does.
```bash
# simply make your code changes to apprise and test it out:
- :gear: `test.sh`: This allows you to just run the unit tests associated with this project. You can optionally specify a _keyword_ as a parameter and the unit tests will specifically focus on a single test. This is useful when you need to debug something and don't want to run the entire fleet of tests each time. e.g:
```bash
# Run all tests:
./bin/tests.sh
# Run just the tests associated with the rest framework:
./bin/tests.sh rest
# Run just the Apprise config related unit tests
./bin/tests.sh config
```
- :gear: `checkdone.sh`: This script just runs a lint check against the code to make sure there are no PEP8 issues and additionally runs a full test coverage report. This is what will happen once you check in your code. Nothing can be merged unless these tests pass with 100% coverage. So it's useful to have this handy to run now and then.
```bash
# Perform PEP8 and test coverage check on all code and reports
# back. It's called 'checkdone' because it checks to see if you're
# actually done with your code commit or not. :)
./bin/checkdone.sh
```
You can optionally just update your path to include this `./bin` directory and call the scripts that way as well. Hence:
```bash
# Update the path to include the bin directory:
export PATH="$(pwd)/bin:$PATH"
# Now you can call the scripts identified above from anywhere...
