So, you want to contribute to this project! That's awesome. However, before
|
||
|
|
doing so, please read the following simple steps how to contribute. This will
|
||
|
|
make the life easier and will avoid wasting time on things which are not
|
||
|
|
requested. :sparkles:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Discuss the changes before doing them
|
||
|
|
- First of all, open an issue in the repository, using the [bug tracker][1],
|
||
|
|
describing the contribution you'd like to make, the bug you found or any
|
||
|
|
other ideas you have. This will help us to get you started on the right
|
||
|
|
foot.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- If it makes sense, add the platform and software information (e.g. operating
|
||
|
|
system, Node.JS version etc), screenshots (so we can see what you're seeing).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- It's recommended to wait for feedback before continuing to next steps. However,
|
||
|
|
if the issue is clear (e.g. a typo) and the fix is simple, you can continue
|
||
|
|
and fix it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Fixing issues
|
||
|
|
- Fork the project in your account and create a branch with your fix:
|
||
|
|
`some-great-feature` or `some-issue-fix`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Commit your changes in that branch, writing the code following the
|
||
|
|
[code style][2]. If the project contains tests (generally, the `test`
|
||
|
|
directory), you are encouraged to add a test as well. :memo:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- If the project contains a `package.json` file add yourself in the
|
||
|
|
`contributors` array (if it doesn't exist, create it):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```json
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
"contributors": [
|
||
|
|
"Your Name <and@email.address> (http://your.website)
|
||
|
|
]
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Creating a pull request
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Open a pull request, and reference the initial issue in the pull request
|
||
|
|
message (e.g. *fixes #<your-issue-number*). Write a good description and
|
||
|
|
title, so everybody will know what is fixed/improved.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- If it makes sense, add screenshots, gifs etc, so it's easier to see what's
|
||
|
|
going on.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Wait for feedback
|
||
|
|
Before accepting your contributions, we will review them. You may get feedback
|
||
|
|
about what should be fixed in your modified code. If so, just keep committing
|
||
|
|
in your branch and the pull request will be updated automatically.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Everyone is happy!
|
||
|
|
Finally, your contributions will be merged, and everyone will be happy! :smile:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Thanks! :sweat_smile:
