The following is a set of guidelines for contributing to diyHue Lights. These are mostly guidelines, not rules. Use your best judgment, and feel free to propose changes to this document in a pull request.
In order for your sketch to be built with travis, please upload only the sketch.ino file in a folder within the Arduino dir. Please make sure that the folder and sketch name are exactly the same, ignoring the extension. For example the sketch would be saved in Lights/Arudino/Generic_Fun_Light/ and called Generic_Fun_Light.ino.
Also within you PR, please create a commit to .travis.yml, adding a line in the matrix section. This should be in the format - SKETCH="YOUR_SKETCH_NAME_HERE". Following the above example, .travis.yml would look like:
...
matrix:
- SKETCH="Generic_RGBW_Light"
- SKETCH="Generic_RGB_Light"
- SKETCH="Generic_CCT_Light"
- SKETCH="Generic_RGB_CCT_Light"
- SKETCH="Generic_WS2812_Strip"
- SKETCH="Generic_SK6812_Strip"
- SKETCH="Generic_Fun_Strip"
...
Finaly, if your sketch requires any of the libraries not installed on this line of install.sh, then please add a commit adding them.
