Problem:
We don't enable stylua for many Lua scripts. Automating code-style is an
important tool for reducing time spent on accidental (non-essential)
complexity.
Solution:
- Enable lintlua for `scripts/` directory.
- Specify `call_parentheses = "Input"`, we should allow kwargs-style
function invocations.
The cmake.deps build will read this file and set the left part of the
text as the variable name and the right part as the variable value. The
benefit of doing this is that it becomes much easier to parse which
dependencies are required, as well as to bump dependencies with
scripts/bump_deps.lua.
Adjust bump_deps.lua script to work with this new format.
When I run ./scripts/bump_deps.lua I get an error:
Vim:E475: Invalid value for argument cmd: 'command' is not executable
Running command -v in shell fixes this.
Problem:
Dirs "config", "packaging", and "third-party" are all closely related
but this is not obvious from the layout. This adds friction for new
contributors.
Solution:
- rename config/ to cmake.config/
- rename test/config/ to test/cmakeconfig/ because it is used in Lua
tests: require('test.cmakeconfig.paths').
- rename packaging/ to cmake.packaging/
- rename third-party/ to cmake.deps/ (parallel with .deps/)
