CodeRabbit Local Dev Loop

Overview

Set up a fast, reproducible local development workflow for CodeRabbit.

Prerequisites

  • Completed coderabbit-install-auth setup
  • Node.js 18+ with npm/pnpm
  • Code editor with TypeScript support
  • Git for version control

Instructions

Step 1: Create Project Structure

my-coderabbit-project/
├── src/
│   ├── coderabbit/
│   │   ├── client.ts       # CodeRabbit client wrapper
│   │   ├── config.ts       # Configuration management
│   │   └── utils.ts        # Helper functions
│   └── index.ts
├── tests/
│   └── coderabbit.test.ts
├── .env.local              # Local secrets (git-ignored)
├── .env.example            # Template for team
└── package.json

Step 2: Configure Environment

bash
# Copy environment template
cp .env.example .env.local

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Start development server
npm run dev

Step 3: Setup Hot Reload

json
{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "tsx watch src/index.ts",
    "test": "vitest",
    "test:watch": "vitest --watch"
  }
}

Step 4: Configure Testing

typescript
import { describe, it, expect, vi } from 'vitest';
import { CodeRabbitClient } from '../src/coderabbit/client';

describe('CodeRabbit Client', () => {
  it('should initialize with API key', () => {
    const client = new CodeRabbitClient({ apiKey: 'test-key' });
    expect(client).toBeDefined();
  });
});

Output

  • Working development environment with hot reload
  • Configured test suite with mocking
  • Environment variable management
  • Fast iteration cycle for CodeRabbit development

Error Handling

Error Cause Solution
Module not found Missing dependency Run npm install
Port in use Another process Kill process or change port
Env not loaded Missing .env.local Copy from .env.example
Test timeout Slow network Increase test timeout

Examples

Mock CodeRabbit Responses

typescript
vi.mock('@coderabbit/sdk', () => ({
  CodeRabbitClient: vi.fn().mockImplementation(() => ({
    // Mock methods here
  })),
}));

Debug Mode

bash
# Enable verbose logging
DEBUG=CODERABBIT=* npm run dev
