Description

On site https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/tutorials/working-with-patches/#applying-a-patch I miss the information about grunt patch command which is very handy. Could be a link to https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/testing/patch/#using-grunt

On site https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/testing/patch/#using-grunt is a mention, but only the number version. Why not list the whole help from grunt patch, e.g.

1) have a diff or patch in your WordPress Directory
2) enter a ticket number, e.g. grunt patch:15705
3) enter a ticket url, e.g. grunt patch:https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/15705
4) enter a patch url, e.g. grunt patch:https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/11817/13711.diff

@dryanpress So I recently modified https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/tutorials/working-with-patches/ for the same reason this ticket exists. I had not seen it before, apologies for that. I've added one paragraph about grunt upload_patch under https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/tutorials/working-with-patches/#creating-a-patch, and a paragraph about grunt patch under https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/tutorials/working-with-patches/#applying-a-patch.

It might be good to link to the other resource, either to complement or instead of having the text in there that I added. Generally, I'd like to ask for a review of the new sections on the Grunt commands I added, and then we can see whether that is sufficient or needs improvements.

#7 follow-up: @dryanpress

@flixos90 Those look like a great start! I'm fine waiting for review before we do more.

I do think this re-highlights a pain point identified in #1866 and ignites my interest in #3593.

At minimum, I think a Handbook page about "Contributing to Handbooks" (or the present inability) would be helpful, and I think either ticket above could help Handbook contribution/quality/coverage.

Replying to dryanpress:

@flixos90 Those look like a great start! I'm fine waiting for review before we do more.

Oh, I meant I'm generally happy for any review. If you think that my changes sufficiently address this ticket here, I think it can be closed.

I do think this re-highlights a pain point identified in #1866 and ignites my interest in #3593.

Those would be separate problems, I certainly agree they are sub-optimal at the moment. Let's focus on only the Grunt command documentation in here.

#9 @dryanpress

@flixos90 I think @michalzuber's point about highlighting the trio of 1) ticket uid 2) ticket URL and 3) patch URL is worth fully detailing / linking off to before closing.

That section under Applying a Patch seems like it's grown organically and could be re-organized and/or clarified with subheadings -- I think putting Grunt commands first as the recommended workflow could help.

Applying a Patch

  • Apply using Grunt (Recommended)
  • Download from Trac
  • Download using CLI

@muhammadfaizanhaidar hey!

I would say that adding the link to PHPUnit installation in the "Note that this step requires PHPUnit to be installed." section would be amazing.

Ref to PHPUnit: https://phpunit.readthedocs.io/en/9.5/installation.html
