Develop Sources and Actions

Contribute to Pipedream's registry of components by:

  • Creating new components (sources and actions)
  • Updating existing components (e.g., fixing bugs, enhancing functionality)
  • Adding or updating metadata (e.g., descriptions, labels)

Setting up your Component Development Environment

Develop components without leaving your browser with the Pipedream Gitpod workspace without installing any dependencies.

Open in Gitpod

  1. Fork the official Pipedream Github Repository
  2. Add your PD API key to your Gitpod Variables as PD_API_KEY
  3. Open a new Gitpod Workspace with your fork: https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/<your-github-username>/pipedream
  4. Run pd init app to scaffold a new app, or make changes to an exisiting one in the components directory

This workspace will automatically configure the Pipedream CLI client with your API key. This allows you to interact with the advanced Pipedream CLI tool and develop components on the fly.

The Pull Request process

When contributing new code to this repo, please do so on a new Git branch, and submit a pull request to merge changes on that branch into master.

A member of the Pipedream team will automatically be notified when you open a pull request. You can also reach out to us on our community or Slack.

Spellchecking

A spellchecker is automatically run on Markdown files in PRs. If you see this check fail when you open a PR, check the output for misspelled words:

Misspelled words:
<htmlcontent> README.md: html>body>p
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lkjsdflkjsdflkjsdflk
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

!!!Spelling check failed!!!
Files in repository contain spelling errors

Some technical words (like Pipedream or JavaScript) aren't in an English dictionary. If the spellchecker fails on a real word, please add it to the .wordlist.txt file.

The spellchecker configuration can be found in .spellcheck.yml. The spellchecking is handled by this GitHub action, which uses PySpelling.
