Contributing to granted

We welcome all contributions to Granted. Please read our Contributor Code of Conduct.

Requirements

The development instructions below pertain to Unix-based systems like Linux and MacOS. If you're running Windows and would like to contribute to Granted, feel free to reach out to us on Slack if you're having issues setting up your development environment.

In order to develop Granted you'll need the following:

Getting started

Granted consists of two binaries:

  • granted: used to manage Granted configuration

  • assume: used to assume roles

You can read about how the assume binary exports environment variables here.

In development we use dassume and dgranted to avoid collisions between the released and development binaries.

To build the Granted CLI you can run

make cli

The CLI should now be available on your PATH as dgranted and dassume.

Creating a bug report

Receiving bug reports is great, it helps us identify and patch issues in the application so that the users have the best possible experience. But it's important to include the necessary information in the bug report so that the maintainers are able to get to the bottom of the problem with as much context as possible.

When opening a bug report we ask that you please include the following information:

  • Your Granted version granted -v
  • If applicable and relevant your .aws config file, found at ~/.aws/config (excluding any account IDs or SSO start URLs)
  • Details surrounding the bug and steps to replicate
  • If possible an example of the bug

Some things to try before opening a new issue:

  • Make sure you're running the latest version of Granted
  • Check if there is already an open issue surrounding your bug and add to that open issue

Example:

Short and descriptive example bug report title

Description of the bug

Granted Version: v0.1.5

Your config

[profile PROFNAME]
sso_start_url=***
sso_region=ap-southeast-2
sso_account_id=***
sso_role_name=ROLE_NAME
region=ap-southeast-2
credential_process=aws-sso-credential-process --profile PROFNAME

Any other information you want to share that is relevant to the issue being reported. This might include the lines of code that you have identified as causing the bug, and potential solutions (and your opinions on their merits).

Technical Notes

Before you get started developing on Granted, these notes will help to explain some key concepts in the codebase.

IO

Granted consists of 2 binaries, granted and assumego. When you run assume a shell script will run which wraps the assumego binary. This is required so that assume can set environment variables in your terminal.

For this reason, informational output should be made to os.StdErr. We use a logging library called clio The library is configured in the entry point of granted and assume with the correct output writers.

So when logging simply use the relevant log type

    clio.Info("hello")
    clio.Warn("hello")
    clio.Success("hello")
    clio.Error("hello")
    clio.Error("hello")
