This page contains some frequently asked questions related to Dolibarr development. For frequently asked questions on other topics, read page [[User FAQ]].
=How to be an official developer=
In the galaxy of the Dolibarr project, there are several actors with different levels / grades.
The number of developers is important so contributions and changes must be controlled and validated (both for functional needs and for coding).
For this reason, the write access on the source (GIT) is limited and governed by an organization that is described in the following.
Each developer has a ''grade'' depending on seniority and the past. The level of authorization of a person on the project increases with the stages of promotion in grade.
The course of a Dolibarr developer passes through these steps, which are classified by a title familiar to fans of science fiction. Here are the steps.
It is important to understand that this organization has the sole purpose of improving the quality of Dolibarr and it is necessary that it is rigorously used.
The ranks of contributors to the Dolibarr project, and what to do to reach this rank, are defined into page [[Dolibarr_Project#Developers_roles|Dolibarr Project]] in chapter '''Developers roles'''.
=Current team=
See page [[Dolibarr Project]] to know list of current people that work on Dolibarr, with their current grade.
=Start a development=
Read first '''completely''' the [[Developer documentation]] to know all rules a developer must respect.
You can also read following FAQ.
=Get/update project sources=
See page [[FAQ Get,update project sources]].
=How to create a new skin=
For this, see page [[Skins]]
=How to develop my own module=
To develop your own numbering module, see [[Create numeration module]].
To develop your own document model, PDF or other, see [[Create a PDF document template]] or [[Create an ODT document template]].
To develop your own business module (screens, tables), see page [[Module development]].
=How to add/complete a translation=
For this, see page [[Translator documentation]]
=Change my numbering system after start=
If the new numbering system does not conflict with the old one, to change the numbering rule, just go to menu Setup - Modules - Invoice setup and choose the new numbering rule in the list.
If the new rule can create conflicts with old one, it will be necessary to rename old existing references. This can be done by a SQL request.
For example, to go from numbering module Jupiter (FYYYYMM99) to Terre (FAYYMM-999), you can run the following request:
<source lang="sql">
update llx_facture set facnumber=concat('FA',substr(facnumber,4,4),'-',substr(facnumber,8))
where facnumber like 'F%' and facnumber not like 'FA%';
</source>
For example, to rename references from model FAYYMM999 to Terre (FAYYMM-999), you can run the following request:
<source lang="sql">
update llx_facture set facnumber=concat('FA',substr(facnumber,3,4),'-',substr(CONCAT('0000',substr(facnumber,7)),-4))
where facnumber like 'FA%' and facnumber not like '%-%';
</source>
=Submit a patch, work and help on Dolibarr development=
If you want to know what you can do to start or help Dolibarr development, read instead chapter [[Developer_FAQ#How_to_be_an_official_developer]]. If you already read it and want to distribute a patch, this chapter is for you.
*If you have Yoda grade (See [[Developer FAQ#How to be an official developer]] for information on different grade), you have a direct GIT write access. So just use it to commit your changes.
*Because you probably don't have this role (your grade is [[Developer FAQ#Soldier|Jedi]] or [[Developer FAQ#Soldier|Admiral]] or [[Developer FAQ#Soldier|Soldier]]), it is necessary to use the "Fork" feature of GitHub. Then you can make a "Pull Request" from GitHub to ask to have your patch merged into develop branch. More information on [[FAQ_Get,update_GIT_project_sources]] and https://github.com/Dolibarr/dolibarr/blob/develop/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md
=How to package and deploy a module=
See page [[Module development]].
This process works also to generate a package to submit it on the https://www.dolistore.com market place.
=How to be informed on news and what happens on Dolibarr project ?=
See page [[FAQ How to be informed on news about Dolibarr project ?]]
=Migrate my Mysql database to PostgreSQL=
See page [[FAQ Migrate my Mysql database to PostgreSQL]]
=What and how is the release process=
See page [[FAQ Release process]]
