We love your input! We want to make contributing to this project as easy and transparent as possible, whether it's:
- Reporting a bug
- Discussing the current state of the code
- Submitting a fix
- Proposing new features
We use github to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.
We Use a Github Flow variant, So All Code Changes Happen Through Pull Requests
Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the codebase (we use Github Flow). We actively welcome your pull requests:
- Fork the repo and create your branch from
develop
. - If you've added code that should be tested, add tests.
- Ensure the PR workflows pass.
- Issue that pull request!
In short, when you submit code changes, your submissions are understood to be under the same SSPL License that covers the project, and requires you to sign a consent. Feel free to contact the maintainers if that's a concern.
Report bugs using Github's issues
We use GitHub issues to track public bugs. Report a bug by opening a new issue; it's that easy!
This is an example of a bug report, and I think it's not a bad model. Here's another example from Craig Hockenberry.
Great Bug Reports tend to have:
- A quick summary and/or background
- Steps to reproduce
- Be specific!
- Give sample code if you can. This stackoverflow question includes sample code that anyone with a base R setup can run to reproduce what I was seeing
- What you expected would happen
- What actually happens
- Notes (possibly including why you think this might be happening, or stuff you tried that didn't work)
People love thorough bug reports. I'm not even kidding.
I'm borrowing these from Facebook's Guidelines
- 2 spaces for indentation rather than tabs
- You can try running
npm run lint
for style unification
