=============
hpc-coveralls converts and sends Haskell projects hpc code coverage to [coverall.io](http://coveralls.io/).
At the moment, only [Travis CI](http://travis-ci.org) has been tested, but hpc-coveralls should be compatible with other CI services (Check `HpcCoverallsMain` [source](https://github.com/guillaume-nargeot/hpc-coveralls/blob/master/src/HpcCoverallsMain.hs) for the list).
hpc-coveralls is still under development and any contributions are welcome!
# Usage
## Travis CI
Commands to add to your project `.travis.yml` when using GHC 7.8:
```yaml
before_install:
- cabal install hpc-coveralls
script:
- cabal configure --enable-tests --enable-library-coverage && cabal build && cabal test
after_script:
- hpc-coveralls [options] [test-suite-names]
```
When using a GHC version prior to 7.8, you have to replace the `cabal test` command by `run-cabal-test`, as in the following example:
```yaml
before_install:
- cabal install hpc-coveralls
script:
- cabal configure --enable-tests --enable-library-coverage && cabal build
- run-cabal-test [options] [cabal-test-options]
after_script:
- hpc-coveralls [options] [test-suite-names]
```
The reason for this is explained in the next section.
For a real world example usage, please refer to [this-project](https://github.com/guillaume-nargeot/project-euler-haskell) `.travis.yml` file ([result on coveralls](https://coveralls.io/r/guillaume-nargeot/project-euler-haskell)).
You can also refer to the `.travis.yml` file of hpc-coveralls itself, which is configured with [multi-ghc-travis](https://github.com/hvr/multi-ghc-travis).
## The run-cabal-test command
When using hpc 0.6, `cabal test` outputs an error message and exits with the error code `1`, which results in a build failure.
In order to prevent this from happening, hpc-coveralls provides the `run-cabal-test` command which runs `cabal test` and returns with `0` if the following regex never matches any line of the output:
```perl
/^Test suite .*: FAIL$/
```
As this issue is fixed in the hpc version shipped with GHC 7.8, you don't have to use `run-cabal-test` when testing with GHC 7.8 and can safely use `cabal test`.
### Options
The `--cabal-name` option can be used to specify a custom executable name instead of the default `cabal` when calling `cabal test`.
Below is an example which can be useful for projects with a Travis configuration based on [multi-ghc-travis](https://github.com/hvr/multi-ghc-travis):
```yaml
run-cabal-test --cabal-name=cabal-1.18
```
## The hpc-coveralls command
This command parses the hpc generated output, converts its to Coveralls json format and finally sends it to coveralls.io over http.
Multiple test suites can be specified, in which case the coverage report will be made of the merged coverage data generated by the specified test suites.
For example, if your test suite are named `test1` and `test2`, use the command as follows:
```yaml
hpc-coveralls test1 test2
```
### Options
#### --exclude-dir
The `--exclude-dir` option allows to exclude source files located under a given directory from the coverage report.
You can exclude source files located under the `test/` by using this option as in the following example:
```yaml
hpc-coveralls --exclude-dir=test [test-suite-names]
```
You can specify multiple excluded folders by using the following example syntax:
```yaml
hpc-coveralls --exclude-dir=test1 --exclude-dir=test2 [test-suite-names]
```
#### --coverage-mode
As Coveralls doesn't support partial-line coverage yet, hpc-coveralls currently converts hpc coverage data into line based coverage data, which is the only format supported at the moment.
The `--coverage-mode` option allows to configure how the coverage data is converted into Coveralls format, based on your needs.
Below are the two modes currently available, with an explanation of what the hit count values mean.
`--coverage-mode=AllowPartialLines` (default):
- `0` : the line is never hit,
- `1` : the line is partially covered,
- `2` : the line is fully covered.
Note that `AllowPartialLines` conversion mode follows the same convention as the one used by [cloverage](https://github.com/lshift/cloverage) coveralls output for Clojure projects code coverage.
`--coverage-mode=StrictlyFullLines`:
- `0` : the line is never hit or only partially covered,
- `1` : the line is fully covered.
Please also note that there is an [open issue](https://github.com/lemurheavy/coveralls-public/issues/216) on coveralls issue tracker in order to improve this (add support for partial line coverage).
#### --dont-send
The `--dont-send` option prevents hpc-coveralls from sending the coverage report to coveralls.io.
This option can be used together with `--display-report` for testing purpose.
For example, you can try various combinations of the other options and confirm the difference in the resulting report outputs.
