Contributing

Compiling from Source

Make sure flatpak and git are installed, then run the following to build from the repo:

# Clone this repo and enter it
git clone https://github.com/flattool/ignition
cd ignition

# Initialize submodules
git submodule update --init --recursive

# Install build dependencies
flatpak install org.flatpak.Builder org.gnome.Sdk//49 org.gnome.Platform//49 runtime/org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.node22//25.08 -y

# Build, install, and run Ignition
./run.sh

Formatting

Ignition uses pre-commit for code formatting.

• Install using pip install pre-commit
• Run pre-commit install in the Ignition repository root to set up pre-commit for this repo.
• Run pre-commit run --all-files to format all files in the repository.

If you run into a situation where pre-commit is broken, you can use git commit --no-verfiy to skip the pre-commit checks.
