# Developer Setup Guide

> Before anything else, please read the [[Contributing]] guidelines.

## Prerequisites

- Node.js 22+
- npm
- Git
- A GitHub account

---

## 1. Fork & Clone the Repository

Go to the [TREK repository](https://github.com/mauriceboe/TREK) and click **Fork** to create your own copy.

Then clone your fork locally:

```bash
# Clone your fork, checking out the dev branch
git clone -b dev git@github.com:your-username/TREK.git
cd TREK
```

---

## 2. Configure Git Remotes

Add the original repository as `upstream` so you can pull in future updates:

```bash
git remote add upstream git@github.com:mauriceboe/TREK.git
```

You should now have two remotes:

| Remote     | URL                                          | Purpose                        |
|------------|----------------------------------------------|--------------------------------|
| `origin`   | `git@github.com:your-username/TREK.git`      | Your fork — push changes here  |
| `upstream` | `git@github.com:mauriceboe/TREK.git`         | Main repo — pull updates from here |

---

## 3. Keep Your Fork Up to Date

Before starting any work, make sure your local `dev` branch is in sync with upstream:

```bash
git fetch upstream
git rebase upstream/dev  # or: git merge upstream/dev
```

---

## 4. Create a Feature Branch

Working on a dedicated branch keeps your changes isolated and makes PRs easier to review:

```bash
# Create a new branch off of dev
git checkout -b fix/my-changes origin/dev
```

Branch naming conventions:
- `feat/short-description` for new features
- `fix/short-description` for bug fixes
- `chore/short-description` for maintenance tasks

---

## 5. Install Dependencies

The repo is an npm workspace monorepo. One command at the root installs everything:

```bash
npm ci
```

---

## 6. Optional: KItinerary (Booking Import)

The booking-confirmation import feature uses [KDE KItinerary](https://apps.kde.org/itinerary/) to parse travel documents. The server works without it, but the import endpoint will be non-functional.

### Linux — amd64

Download the static binary from the KDE CDN and verify the checksum:

```bash
wget -qO /tmp/ki.tgz https://cdn.kde.org/ci-builds/pim/kitinerary/release-26.04/linux/kitinerary-extractor-x86_64-26.04.0.tgz
echo "b7058d98990053c7b61847fef0c21e02d59b60e323e2b171ca210b682334e801  /tmp/ki.tgz" | sha256sum -c
sudo tar -xz -C /usr/local -f /tmp/ki.tgz bin/kitinerary-extractor share/locale
rm /tmp/ki.tgz
```

### Linux — arm64

```bash
sudo apt-get install -y libkitinerary-bin
sudo ln -sf "$(find /usr/lib -name kitinerary-extractor -type f | head -1)" /usr/local/bin/kitinerary-extractor
```

### Environment variables

Add these to your local `.env` (or export them before starting the server):

```bash
# Required: path to the extractor binary
KITINERARY_EXTRACTOR_PATH=/usr/local/bin/kitinerary-extractor

# Prevent Qt from probing for a display in headless/server environments
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=offscreen

# KDE cache directory (avoids writing to $HOME)
XDG_CACHE_HOME=/tmp/kf6-cache
```

You can override `KITINERARY_EXTRACTOR_PATH` if you installed the binary to a different location.

## 7. Available Scripts

### Root (`/`)

These commands run across all workspaces at once and are the recommended way to work:

| Command              | Description                                                         |
|----------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `npm run dev`        | Build shared, then start shared (watch), server, and client together via `concurrently` |
| `npm run build`      | Build shared → server → client in order                            |
| `npm test`           | Run tests in shared, server, and client                            |
| `npm run test:cov`   | Run coverage for server and client                                 |
| `npm run test:e2e`   | Run end-to-end tests (server)                                      |
| `npm run lint`       | Lint shared, server, and client                                    |
| `npm run format`     | Format shared, server, and client                                  |
| `npm run format:check` | Check formatting across all workspaces                           |

### Shared (`/shared`)

The `@trek/shared` package is the single source of truth for code shared between the client and server. It holds the **Zod schemas that define the API contracts** (request/response shapes, common primitives, pagination) and the **i18n translation layer** (per-language keys and types). Both workspaces import from it, so schema and translation changes propagate to both sides from one place.

> **Tip:** run `npm run i18n:parity` (or `i18n:parity:strict`) in this package to verify every locale exposes the same translation keys — the CI parity gate runs the strict variant.

## 8. Commit & Push Your Changes

```bash
git add .
git commit -m "fix: describe your change"

# Push to your fork's dev branch
git push origin fix/my-changes

# Or if working directly on dev
git push origin dev
```

Then open a Pull Request from your fork to `mauriceboe/TREK` targeting the `dev` branch. If your PR only modifies files under `wiki/`, it is exempt from branch enforcement and may target any branch.

---

## Tips

- Always branch off from an up-to-date `dev` — run `git fetch upstream && git rebase upstream/dev` before starting new work.
- Run tests before pushing: `npm test` at the repo root runs all workspaces.
- Follow the commit message conventions described in the [[Contributing]] guidelines.
