Development
Install Ruff if needed:
py -3 -m pip install ruff
npm.cmd install
Run lint and formatting:
py -3 -m ruff check .
py -3 -m ruff format .
Run tests:
py -3 -m unittest discover -s tests -v
npm.cmd run test:js
Build a clean .ankiaddon package:
py -3 scripts/build_ankiaddon.py
This writes dist/Text-Tools.ankiaddon and packages the contents of Text-Tools/ at the archive root while excluding generated files such as __pycache__/, *.pyc, and user-specific files inside Text-Tools/user_files/ except README.txt.
Release Flow
- Run the lint and format commands above.
- Run through the manual smoke test checklist in
docs/MANUAL_TEST_CHECKLIST.md. - Build
dist/Text-Tools.ankiaddon. - Push a version tag such as
v2.1.0to create a GitHub release automatically. - Upload the generated
.ankiaddonfile to AnkiWeb manually.
The GitHub Actions workflow at .github/workflows/release.yml runs Ruff, Python tests, DOM tests, builds dist/Text-Tools.ankiaddon, and attaches that file to the GitHub release for the pushed tag.
