Please note we have a code of conduct, please follow it in all your interactions with the project.

Pull Request Process

  1. Ensure any install or build dependencies are removed before the end of the layer when doing a build.
  2. Check that there are no conflicts and your request passes Travis build. Check the log of the pass test if it fails the build.
  3. Give the description of the issue that you want to resolve in the pull request message. The format of the commit message to be fixed - Fixes #[issue number] [Description of the issue]

  5. We use danger, so update go to https://travis-ci.org and login with github. Next you will see a + near my repositories. Click on it and select your fork enabling it for Travis. Then go the dashboard and add two environment varibales which two wont get displayed in the terminal(There's an option). The first one must be named USERNAME and should contain your github username.

Contributions Best Practices

Commits

  • Write clear meaningful git commit messages (Do read http://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/)
  • Make sure your PR's description contains GitHub's special keyword references that automatically close the related issue when the PR is merged. (More info at https://github.com/blog/1506-closing-issues-via-pull-requests )
  • When you make very very minor changes to a PR of yours (like for example fixing a failing travis build or some small style corrections or minor changes requested by reviewers) make sure you squash your commits afterwards so that you don't have an absurd number of commits for a very small fix. (Learn how to squash at https://davidwalsh.name/squash-commits-git )
  • When you're submitting a PR for a UI-related issue, it would be really awesome if you add a screenshot of your change or a link to a deployment where it can be tested out along with your PR. It makes it very easy for the reviewers and you'll also get reviews quicker.

Feature Requests and Bug Reports

  • When you file a feature request or when you are submitting a bug report to the issue tracker, make sure you add steps to reproduce it. Especially if that bug is some weird/rare one.

Join the development

  • Before you join development, please set up the project on your local machine, run it and go through the application completely. Press on any button you can find and see where it leads to. Explore. (Don't worry ... Nothing will happen to the app or to you due to the exploring 😉 Only thing that will happen is, you'll be more familiar with what is where and might even get some cool ideas on how to improve various aspects of the app.)
  • If you would like to work on an issue, drop in a comment at the issue. If it is already assigned to someone, but there is no sign of any work being done, please free to drop in a comment so that the issue can be assigned to you if the previous assignee has dropped it entirely.

Do read the Open Source Developer Guide and Best Practices at FOSSASIA.
