Submitting Issues

If you have found an issue with the client (choco.exe), this is the place to submit. If it is an issue with the website, please submit the issue to the Chocolatey.org repo. If you are having issue with a package and it is the package itself, please submit the issue directly to the package maintainer(s).

Observe the following help for submitting an issue:

Prerequisites:

  • The issue has to do with choco itself and is not a package or website issue.
  • Please check to see if your issue already exists with a quick search of the issues. Start with one relevant term and then add if you get too many results.
  • You are not submitting an Enhancement. Enhancements should observe CONTRIBUTING guidlines.

Submitting a ticket:

  • We'll need debug and verbose output, so please run and capture the log with -dv or --debug --verbose. You can submit that with the issue or create a gist and link it.
  • Please note that the debug/verbose output for some commands may have sensitive data (passwords or apiKeys) related to Chocolatey, so please remove those if they are there prior to submitting the issue.
  • choco.exe logs to a file in $env:ChocolateyInstall\log\. You can grab the specific log output from there so you don't have to capture or redirect screen output. Please limit the amount included to just the command run (the log is appended to with every command).
  • Please save the log output in a gist (save the file as log.sh) and link to the gist from the issue. Feel free to create it as secret so it doesn't fill up against your public gists. Anyone with a direct link can still get to secret gists. If you accidentally include secret information in your gist, please delete it and create a new one (gist history can be seen by anyone) and update the link in the ticket (issue history is not retained except by email - deleting the gist ensures that no one can get to it). Using gists this way also keeps accidental secrets from being shared in the ticket in the first place as well.
  • We'll need the entire log output from the run, so please don't limit it down to areas you feel are relevant. You may miss some important details we'll need to know. This will help expedite issue triage.
  • It's helpful to include the version of choco, the version of the OS, and the version of PowerShell (Posh), but the debug script should capture all of those pieces of information.
  • Include screenshots and/or animated gifs whenever possible, they help show us exactly what the problem is.

Contributing

If you would like to contribute code or help squash a bug or two, that's awesome. Please familiarize yourself with CONTRIBUTING.

Committers

Committers, you should be very familiar with COMMITTERS.

Compiling / Building Source

There is a build.bat/build.sh file that creates a necessary generated file named SolutionVersion.cs. It must be run at least once before Visual Studio will build.

Windows

Prerequisites:

  • .NET Framework 4+
  • Visual Studio is helpful for working on source.
  • ReSharper is immensely helpful (and there is a .sln.DotSettings file to help with code conventions).

Build Process:

  • Run build.bat.

Running the build on Windows should produce an artifact that is tested and ready to be used.

Other Platforms

Prerequisites:
  • Install and configure Mono 3.12.0 (3.8.0 should also work).
  • Debian based
# add the key

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF
# add the package repository
echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list
# Ubuntu 12.10/12.04 - add this deb as well
echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy-libtiff-compat main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list

# update package indexes
sudo apt-get update
# install
sudo apt-get install mono-devel -y
### NOT FULLY TESTED AND WORKING ###
# add the EPEL
sudo yum install epel-release -y
# Add the key
sudo rpm --import "http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF"

# Add the package repository
sudo yum-config-manager --add-repo http://download.mono-project.com/repo/centos/

# update your system
sudo yum update -y

# Install mono-devel
sudo yum install mono-devel -y

  • Xamarin Studio is helpful for working on source.
  • Consider adding the following to your ~/.profile (or other relevant dot source file):
# mono
# http://www.michaelruck.de/2010/03/solving-pkg-config-and-mono-35-profile.html
# http://cloudgen.wordpress.com/2013/03/06/configure-nant-to-run-under-mono-3-06-beta-for-mac-osx/
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig:/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
  • Set your permissions correctly:
chmod +x build.sh
chmod +x zip.sh
Build Process:
  • Run ./build.sh.

Running the build on Mono produces an artifact similar to Windows but may have more rough edges. You may get a failure or two in the build script that can be safely ignored.
