## Contribution

### How to report an issue

GitHub can be used to report a bug or to submit a feature request. To do so, go to [this page](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardforiOS/issues) and click the _New issue_ button.

> **Note:** for the filter-related issues (missed ads, false positives etc.) use our [reporting tool](https://link.adtidy.org/forward.html?action=report&app=home&from=github).

### Translating AdGuard

If you want to help with AdGuard translations, please learn more about translating our products [here](https://adguard.com/kb/miscellaneous/contribute/translate/program/).

### Other options

Here is a [dedicated page](https://adguard.com/contribute.html) for those who are willing to contribute.

### How to become a beta tester

You can use TestFlight to participate in the AdGuard for iOS beta-testing program. All necessary information on this topic can be found on the [dedicated page](https://adguard.com/beta.html?platform=ios).

## How to build

### Install node v22 and yarn

Use [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) to install node 22, it is required to build the web extension.

```sh
nvm install 22
nvm alias default 22
npm install -g yarn
```

### Install a newer ruby version

```sh
brew install ruby
```

Add to your `~/.zshrc`

```sh
echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
```

### Prepare

Prepare and install Ruby bundler:

- `gem install bundler -v 2.3.9`

Configure bundler to use local directory for storing dependencies:

- `bundle config set --local path '.bundle/vendor'`

Then run bundle install:

- `bundle install`

**IMPORTANT:** before running Fastlane, you need to place the [App Store Connect API key](https://docs.fastlane.tools/app-store-connect-api/#using-an-app-store-connect-api-key) to `fastlane/AuthKey.p8`.

Then you can run Fastlane using a command like this:

- `bundle exec fastlane [lane]`

- `bundle exec fastlane run register_device udid:"UUID" name:"Device name"`

### Codesigning

Note, that by default these commands will only work for AdGuard, not AdGuard Pro.
For AdGuard Pro you need to run them with `--env pro`.

Run this command to get proper codesigning certificates:

- `bundle exec fastlane prepare`

### Actions

- `bundle exec fastlane tests` -- run tests
- `bundle exec fastlane build` -- build version for App Store

Actions below are supposed to be used from CI only:

- `bundle exec fastlane adhoc` -- build adhoc version (for inner testing)
- `bundle exec fastlane increment` -- increments build number, commits it to git
- `bundle exec fastlane testflight_beta` -- upload previously built version to testflight

In the case when certificate expires, you may need to nuke the old certs and generate them again:

```sh
bundle exec fastlane match nuke development
bundle exec fastlane match nuke distribution
bundle exec fastlane generate
```

In order for fastlane to work properly in CI environment, we use [spaceauth](https://docs.fastlane.tools/best-practices/continuous-integration/#use-of-application-specific-passwords-and-spaceauth).

Run this command to generate `FASTLANE_SESSION` which you'll then need to use on the CI server:

```sh
bundle exec fastlane auth
```
