----------------------------------------
Summary: Code readability improvement
Key: RANGER-5017
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-5017
Project: Ranger
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Ranger
Reporter: Madhan Neethiraj
Assignee: Madhan Neethiraj
Ranger code base has been evolving over a decade, with contributions from large
number of authors. Having a common coding style enforced during build time will
help improve the readability of the code base. I propose to use
[checkstyle|https://github.com/airlift/airbase/blob/master/airbase-policy/src/main/resources/checkstyle/airbase-checks.xml]
based on airbase, which is used by open-source projects like Trino.
Updating the entire code base will take considerable time, hence this will need
to be done in phases, perhaps one module at a time. To start with, I suggest
updating the checkstyle currently in the master branch but not fail the build
in case of violations. This should be followed by updates to sources to comply
with the checkstyle - one module at a time. Once all modules are updated, build
should be updated to fail on violations.
