feat: Add comprehensive tests to rebar3 diameter compiler plugin
- Introduced `flake.nix` and `flake.lock` for Nix package management. - Implemented the `rebar3_diameter_compiler` plugin to compile diameter `.dia` files. - Created a development shell with necessary tools for plugin development. - Added integration tests in `dia_tests.erl` covering compilation and dependency resolution. - Developed unit tests in `unit_tests.erl` for error handling, configuration parsing, and provider initialization. - Implemented error tests in `error_tests.erl` to handle malformed files and missing dependencies. - Added property-based tests in `property_tests.erl` to verify invariants and edge cases. - Included test coverage documentation in `TEST_COVERAGE.md`. - Created sample `.dia` files for testing various inheritance scenarios. - Enhanced error reporting in compilation commands for better debugging.

# Copilot Instructions for rebar3_diameter_compiler
2+
3+
## Project Overview
4+
5+
This is a **rebar3 plugin** that compiles Diameter protocol dictionary files (`.dia`) into Erlang source code. It integrates with rebar3's build system as a provider plugin with compile and clean tasks.
6+
7+
### Architecture
8+
9+
- **Entry point**: `src/rebar3_diameter_compiler.erl` - Minimal wrapper that registers two providers
10+
- **Compile provider**: `src/compile_diameter.erl` - Core compilation logic with dependency resolution
11+
- **Clean provider**: `src/clean_diameter.erl` - Removes generated `.erl` and `.hrl` files
12+
- **Key mechanism**: Uses digraph for topological sorting of `@inherits` dependencies in `.dia` files
13+
14+
### Critical Data Flow
15+
16+
1. Discover `.dia` files in `dia/` directory using regex pattern `^(?!\\._).*\\.dia$`
17+
2. Parse each file to extract `@inherits` directives (binary pattern matching on `<<"@inherits">>`)
18+
3. Build dependency graph using `digraph` module
19+
4. Topologically sort files so inherited dictionaries compile first
20+
5. Generate `.erl` files (to `src/`) and `.hrl` files (to `include/`) via `diameter_codegen`
21+
6. Compile generated `.erl` to `.beam` and load into code path
22+
23+
## Developer Workflows
24+
25+
### Testing (59 tests across 4 modules)
26+
27+
```bash
28+
rebar3 eunit # Run all tests
29+
rebar3 eunit --module=unit_tests # Unit tests only
30+
rebar3 eunit --module=error_tests # Error handling tests
31+
rebar3 eunit --module=property_tests # Fuzz/stress tests
32+
rebar3 eunit --module=dia_tests # Integration tests
33+
GOLDEN_RUN=1 rebar3 eunit # Regenerate expected test outputs
34+
```
35+
36+
**Test structure**: Integration tests (`dia_tests.erl`) compile real rebar3 projects in `_build/test/lib/`. They use git-based plugin loading with `file://` URLs pointing to repo root.
37+
38+
**CI Testing**: Tests detect CI environments via `GITHUB_HEAD_REF` and `GITHUB_REF_NAME` environment variables for proper git branch handling. Integration tests capture full command output with exit codes for debugging failures.
39+
40+
### Code Quality
41+
42+
```bash
43+
rebar3 lint # edoc + format + xref
44+
rebar3 lint_all # + dialyzer + dialyzer_html
45+
rebar3 format # Format with erlfmt (100 char width)
46+
```
47+
48+
### Publishing
49+
50+
```bash
51+
rebar3 pub # eunit + edoc + format + hex cut
52+
rebar3 publish_hex # eunit + edoc + hex publish
53+
```
54+
55+
### Nix Development
56+
57+
```bash
58+
nix develop # Enter dev shell with Erlang + rebar3
59+
nix build # Build package
60+
nix run .#test # Run tests via Nix
61+
```
62+
63+
## Project-Specific Patterns
64+
65+
### Provider Registration Pattern
66+
67+
All providers follow this structure:
68+
69+
1. Export `init/1`, `do/1`, `format_error/1`
70+
2. Use `providers:create/1` with namespace `diameter` and module `?MODULE`
71+
3. Register via `rebar_state:add_provider/2`
72+
4. Dependency: `[{default, app_discovery}]` to ensure apps are discovered first
73+
74+
### Dependency Resolution Algorithm
75+
76+
**Key insight**: The `compile_order/3` function in `compile_diameter.erl` uses a sophisticated graph approach:
77+
78+
- Parses `.dia` files as binaries split by newlines to extract `@inherits` directives
79+
- Builds digraph where edges point FROM dependent TO dependency
80+
- Uses `digraph_utils:reachable/2` + `digraph_utils:subgraph/2` + `digraph_utils:topsort/1`
81+
- Filters by `dia_only_files` config option to compile subset of files
82+
- Returns `{ok, Order}` or `{error, Reason}` (circular deps return `false` from topsort)
83+
84+
### Configuration Options
85+
86+
Three rebar.config options (see `compile_diameter.erl` lines 147-152):
87+
88+
- `dia_opts` - Passed to `diameter_dict_util:parse/2` and `diameter_codegen:from_dict/4`
89+
- `dia_first_files` - Files to compile before dependency-ordered compilation
90+
- `dia_only_files` - Filter to compile only specific dictionaries (matched by basename)
91+
92+
### Test Patterns
93+
94+
- **Integration tests** (`dia_tests.erl`): Create temp rebar3 projects, setup git branches dynamically for CI
95+
- **Unit tests** (`unit_tests.erl`): Test provider init, graph algorithms, path handling
96+
- **Error tests** (`error_tests.erl`): Malformed files, encoding, circular deps
97+
- **Property tests** (`property_tests.erl`): Fuzz testing, stress tests (1000+ nodes), PropEr integration (optional)
98+
99+
**Testing anti-pattern**: Don't call providers directly. Integration tests use actual `rebar3 diameter compile` commands via `os:cmd/1`.
100+
101+
### EDoc Documentation
102+
103+
Heavy use of `@doc`, `@private`, `@param`, `@returns` tags. The `edoc_opts` in rebar.config generates docs to `doc/` with custom overview from `doc/overview.edoc`.
104+
105+
### Cross-OTP Compatibility
106+
107+
Tests filter OTP version differences like `-moduledoc(false).` (OTP 27+). See `filter_otp_differences/1` in `dia_tests.erl`.
108+
109+
## Key Files to Reference
110+
111+
- `src/compile_diameter.erl` lines 301-393: Complete dependency resolution algorithm
112+
- `test/dia_tests.erl` lines 88-222: CI-aware test setup with git branch detection
113+
- `rebar.config` lines 11-16: Custom command aliases pattern
114+
- `test/TEST_COVERAGE.md`: Comprehensive test documentation
115+
116+
## External Dependencies
117+
118+
- **diameter** (OTP standard library): Uses `diameter_dict_util` for parsing, `diameter_codegen` for code generation
119+
- **rebar3**: Provider API, state management, base_compiler
120+
- **digraph**: Dependency graph construction (standard library)
121+
- No external deps in `rebar.config` - pure OTP plugin
122+
123+
## Common Pitfalls
124+
125+
1. **Graph direction matters**: Edges go FROM dependent TO dependency, not vice versa
126+
2. **Binary parsing**: `.dia` files split by `<<"\n">>` and `<<"\r">>`, not strings
127+
3. **Test isolation**: Integration tests must use unique temp dirs with `erlang:unique_integer([positive])`
128+
4. **Provider hooks**: Use `{pre, [...]}` not `{post, [...]}` for compile/clean hooks
129+
5. **Circular deps**: `digraph_utils:topsort/1` returns `false` (not error tuple) for cycles
