Contributing

We’re actively looking for contributors. All skill levels welcome.

Getting started

git clone https://github.com/ojuschugh1/ghostdep
cd ghostdep
cargo test

If all tests pass, you’re ready to go.

Ideas

• Add support for new languages (Ruby, PHP, C#, Swift, Kotlin…)
• Expand the Java import-to-artifact mapping table
• Improve monorepo package name extraction (read name from manifests)
• Write a WASM plugin for a language you use
• Document the WASM plugin API with an example
• Add setup.cfg / setup.py support for Python
• Improve the fix command for Maven/Gradle (direct manifest editing)
• Write more property-based tests
• Performance benchmarks on large codebases

Tests

Run the full suite:

cargo test

The test suite includes:

• Unit tests (inline in each module)
• Integration tests (invoke the binary against fixture projects in tests/fixtures/)
• Property-based tests (proptest, in tests/property/)

Add tests for any new functionality. Property tests are preferred for correctness properties.

Pull requests

• Keep PRs focused — one feature or fix per PR
• Include tests
• Make sure cargo test passes
• Brief description of what and why
