Contribution guidelines use invalid command to set up local development environment #1593

Open coatesap opened 2 years ago

coatesap commented 2 years ago

The instructions to set up a local development environment in CONTRIBUTING.md use the command yarn --cwd=botpress run init-foobot. This command no longer exists, and it's not clear what the replacement is.

For reference, the command was a shortcut for node botpress/packages/core/botpress/bin/botpress init foobot --yes && cd foobot && yarn link botpress && yarn. This path no longer exists, and it's also not clear whether there is a replacement.

Having a series of broken steps (see also botpress/v12#1576) in the contribution guidelines makes it much more difficult than it needs to be for external contributors to help fix any of the other outstanding bugs, so I'd plead for someone at Botpress to make sure this guide is up-to-date with whatever steps are used internally at Botpress to set up fresh development environments.
