Add anyone as reviewers that you think should + be there (using the relevant GitHub feature, if you have the permissions, or + with an @mention if necessary). +2. **Review** the code. Look for code style violations, naming convention + violations, buffer overflows, memory leaks, logic errors, non-portable code + (including GNU-isms), etc. For significant changes to the public API, loop in + a couple more people for discussion. +3. **Execute** the test plan, if present. +4. **Merge** the pull request when all reviewers approve. +5. **File** follow-up tickets if appropriate. + +## Style Reference + +Sway is written in C with a style similar to the [kernel +style](https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/process/coding-style.rst), but +with a few notable differences. + +Try to keep your code conforming to C11 and POSIX as much as possible, and do +not use GNU extensions. + +### Brackets + +Brackets always go on the same line, including in functions. +Always include brackets for if/while/for, even if it's a single statement. +```c +void function(void) { + if (condition1) { + do_thing1(); } - if (!registry->desktop_shell) { - sway_abort("swaybg requires the compositor to support the desktop-shell extension."); + if (condition2) { + do_thing2(); + } else { + do_thing3(); } +} +``` + +### Indentation + +Indentations are a single tab. + +For long lines that need to be broken, the continuation line should be indented +with an additional tab. + +If the line being broken is opening a new block (functions, if, while, etc.), +the continuation line should be indented with two tabs, so they can't be +misread as being part of the block. + +```c +really_long_function(argument1, argument2, ..., + argument3, argument4); + +if (condition1 && condition2 && ... + condition3 && condition4) { + do_thing(); +} +``` + +Try to break the line in the place which you think is the most appropriate to +balance the lines. + +### Line Length + +Try to keep your lines under 80 columns, but you can go up to 100 if it +improves readability. Don't break lines indiscriminately, try to find nice +breaking points so your code is easy to read. + +### Names + +Global function and type names should be prefixed with `sway_submodule_` (e.g. +`struct sway_output`, `sway_output_destroy`). For static functions and +types local to a file, the names chosen aren't as important. Static functions +shouldn't have a `sway_` prefix. + +For include guards, use the header's filename relative to include.

They should accept a pointer to some + pre-allocated memory (e.g. a member of a struct). +* `create`/`destroy`: These also initialize/deinitialize, but will return a + pointer to a `malloc`ed chunk of memory, and will `free` it in `destroy`. + +A destruction function should always be able to accept a NULL pointer or a +zeroed value and exit cleanly; this simplifies error handling a lot. + +### Error Codes + +For functions not returning a value, they should return a (stdbool.h) bool to +indicated if they succeeded or not. + +### Macros + +Keep the use of macros to a minimum, especially if a function can do the job.
