Setup for running perltidy via pre-commit

Purpose

Periodically it makes sense to be able to compare to our original upstream repository (Fedora openQA) or even to cherry pick select improvements to our code. In the best case we might even contribute improvements or bug fixes back to Fedora. In order to do any of those things effectively it is good to keep the code we share with upstream as closely matching as possible.

After we forked from upstream the Fedora QA team began using perltidy to apply and enforce consistent coding stardards to their openQA test code. Additionally, they modified all existing code to implement these coding standards uniformly across the entire repository.

If we adopt the same standard we will benefit from being able to...

  • directly compare code in our fork originating from upstream,
  • more easily import any existing upstream code
  • and we'll also improve our own code quality.

Pre-Requisites

Install above in your dev system via you preferred method. I used cpanm to install Perl::Tidy and Code::TidyAll in my macOS system and cpanm was installed with Homebrew.

perltidy usage

With the .perltidyrc configuration adopted from upstream analysis (and repair) of Perl source files is possible. For example...

$ perltidy -st main.pm > main.pm.tidy
$ diff main.pm main.pm.tidy
36c36
<     my @a   = @{ needle::tags($tag) };
---
>     my @a = @{needle::tags($tag)};
52c52
<     NEEDLE: for my $needle ( needle::all() ) {
---
>   NEEDLE: for my $needle (needle::all()) {
54c54
<         for my $tag ( @{$needle->{'tags'}} ) {
---
>         for my $tag (@{$needle->{'tags'}}) {
59c59
<                 for my $value ( @{$valueref} ) {
---
>                 for my $value (@{$valueref}) {
88c88
<         unregister_prefix_tags('DESKTOP', [ get_var('DESKTOP') ])
---
>         unregister_prefix_tags('DESKTOP', [get_var('DESKTOP')]);
94c94
<     my $langref = [ get_var('LANGUAGE') || 'english' ];
---
>     my $langref = [get_var('LANGUAGE') || 'english'];
198c198
<     if (! $partitioning || $partitioning ~~ ['guided_empty', 'guided_free_space']) {
---
>     if (!$partitioning || $partitioning ~~ ['guided_empty', 'guided_free_space']) {
202c202
<         $storage = "tests/disk_".$partitioning.".pm";
---

It should be evident from the above that without these changes it will become challenging to detect differences between our code and upstream code moving forward from the point where Fedora QA applied these code standards to all sources.

Using tidy to check and/or fix code

The utility wrapper tidy provided by Fedora in the upstream repository can be used to launch tidyall with options described in tidy.

For example, dropping an untidy'd copy of our main.pm as foo.pm...

[geekotest@openqa-dev ~]$ cd /var/lib/openqa/tests/rocky

[geekotest@openqa-dev rocky]$ ./tidy --check foo.pm
[checked] foo.pm
*** needs tidying

[geekotest@openqa-dev rocky]$ ./tidy foo.pm
[tidied]  foo.pm

[geekotest@openqa-dev rocky]$ ls .tidyall.d/backups/
foo.pm-20230212-203202.bak
[geekotest@openqa-dev rocky]$ diff .tidyall.d/backups/foo.pm-20230212-203202.bak foo.pm

Automatic application with pre-commit

While it's possible to manually apply these corrections using tidy when adding tests it is easy to forget this step and may be preferable to to use pre-commit to automatically check/apply these changes during normal workflow of developing and adding tests to openQA.

With pre-commit setup in your local clone you are able to do this easily for any new tests added to the repository.

For example...

$ cp main.pm foo.pm
$ git add foo.pm
$ pre-commit run

Automatic application of check/modify with git pre-commit hook

By adding the perltidy hook to the pre-commit configuration the hook is automatically run when trying to commit Perl code. If problems are found they are fixed and the the commit is rejected allowing you an opportunity to investigate before continuing.

Automatically tidying all existing code

perltidy and tidy can check specific files and the pre-commit hook can check any new files added to the repository in new commits.

How do we repair all of the existing code in the repository so that it matches upstream?

For that we can use tidyall for everything in the hierarchy of our openQA repository. For example...

$ tidyall --check-only -a
[checked] main.pm
*** needs tidying
[checked] tests/server_cockpit_default.pm
*** needs tidying
[checked] tests/disk_guided_delete_partial_postinstall.pm
