# Contributing to mq-bridge

Thank you for your interest in contributing to **mq-bridge**! We welcome bug reports, feature requests, documentation improvements, and code contributions.

## Getting Started

1. **Fork the repository** and clone your fork locally.
2. **Install Rust** (stable, via [rustup]https://rustup.rs/).
3. **Install required dependencies** for optional features (Kafka, NATS, AMQP, etc.) as needed. The test folder also has Docker-Compose files for the specific brokers, so you don't need to install them natively.
4. **Run tests** to verify your environment:
   ```sh
   cargo test --features full
   ```

## Code Style

- Run `cargo fmt --all` before submitting a PR.
- Ensure code passes `cargo clippy --all-features -- -D warnings`.
- Follow idiomatic Rust and existing code conventions.

## Making Changes

- **New endpoints or middleware:**
  - Add new files in `src/endpoints/` or `src/middleware/`.
  - Update factory functions in `mod.rs` as needed.
  - Add configuration models to `src/models.rs`.
- **Tests:**
  - Add or update unit tests in the relevant module.
  - Add integration tests in `tests/integration/` if applicable.
- **Documentation:**
  - Update `README.md` and add doc comments for public APIs.

## Running Tests

- **Unit tests:**
  ```sh
  cargo test
  ```
- **Integration tests:**
  ```sh
  cargo test --test integration_test --features full
  ```
- **Performance tests:**
  ```sh
  cargo bench
  ```
- **Memory tests:**
  ```sh
  cargo test --test memory_test
  ```

Some integration tests require Docker services. See `tests/integration/docker-compose/` for setup.
