Contributing to Zigbee2MQTT

Everybody is invited and welcome to contribute to Zigbee2MQTT. Zigbee2MQTT is writen in JavaScript and is based upon zigbee-herdsman and zigbee-herdsman-converters. Zigbee-herdsman-converters contains all device definition, zigbee-herdsman is responsible for handling all communication with the adapter.

• Pull requests are always created against the dev branch.
• Easiest way to start developing Zigbee2MQTT is by setting up a development environment (aka bare-metal installation). You can follow this guide to do this.
• You can run the tests locally by executing npm test. Zigbee2MQTT enforces 100% code coverage, in case you add new code check if you code is covered by running npm run test-with-coverage. The coverage report can be found under coverage/lcov-report/index.html. Linting is also enforced and can be run with npm run eslint.
• When you want to add support for a new devices no changes to Zigbee2MQTT have to be made, only to zigbee-herdsman-converters. You can find a guide for it here.
