Coding Guidelines
|
|
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- OBS Studio uses kernel normal form (linux variant), for more
|
|
|
|
information, please read here:

|
|
|
|
- Avoid trailing spaces. To view trailing spaces before making a
|
|
|
|
commit, use "git diff" on your changes. If colors are enabled for
|
|
|
|
git in the command prompt, it will show you any whitespace issues
|
|
|
|
marked with red.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Tabs for indentation, spaces for alignment. Tabs are treated as 8
|
|
|
|
columns wide.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- 80 columns max
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Commit Guidlines
|
|
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- OBS Studio uses the 50/72 standard for commits. 50 characters max
|
|
|
|
for the title (excluding module prefix), an empty line, and then a
|
|
|
|
full description of the commit, wrapped to 72 columns max. See this
|
|
|
|
link for more information: http://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Make sure commit titles are always in present tense, and are not
|
|
|
|
followed by punctuation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Prefix commit titles with the module name, followed by a colon and a
|
|
|
|
space (unless modifying a file in the base directory). When
|
|
|
|
modifying cmake modules, prefix with "cmake". So for example, if you
|
|
|
|
are modifying the obs-ffmpeg plugin::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
obs-ffmpeg: Fix bug with audio output
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Or for libobs::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
libobs: Fix source not displaying
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Headers
|
|
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There's no formal documentation as of yet, so it's recommended to read
|
|
|
|
the headers (which are heavily commented) to learn the API.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here are the most important headers to check out::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
libobs/obs.h Main header
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
libobs/obs-module.h Main header for plugin modules
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
libobs/obs-source.h Creating video/audio sources
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
libobs/obs-output.h Creating outputs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
libobs/obs-encoder.h Implementing encoders
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
libobs/obs-service.h Implementing custom streaming services
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
libobs/graphics/graphics.h Graphics API
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
UI/obs-frontend-api/obs-frontend-api.h
|
|
|
|
Front-end API
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you would like to learn from example, examine the default plugins
|
|
|
|
(in the <plugins> subdirectory). All features of OBS Studio are
|
|
|
|
implemented as plugins.
