Fork the zot repository on GitHub to your personal account.
#Set golang environment
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/project-zot
#Get code
go get github.com/project-zot/zot
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/project-zot/zot
#Track repository under your personal account
git config push.default nothing # Anything to avoid pushing to project-zot/zot by default
git remote rename origin project-zot
git remote add $USER [email protected]:$USER/zot.git
git fetch $USER
NOTES: Note that GOPATH can be any directory, the example above uses $HOME/go. Change $USER above to your own GitHub username.
There are several ways to build the zot project. The resulting binaries are produced under bin/
For fully-featured zot,
make
For a minimal dist-spec only zot,
make binary-minimal
For a zot that includes only the extensions that you specify, the available extensions that can be used at the moment are: sync, scrub, metrics, search, ui_base .
NOTES: When multiple extensions are used, they should be enlisted in the above presented order.
make binary EXTENSIONS=a,b,c
For a node exporter used by minimal dist-spec only zot,
make exporter-minimal
make binary-stacker
make binary-container

PRs are always welcome, even if they only contain small fixes like typos or a few lines of code. If there will be a significant effort, please document it as an issue and get a discussion going before starting to work on it.
Please submit a PR broken down into small changes bit by bit. A PR consisting of a lot features and code changes may be hard to review. It is recommended to submit PRs in an incremental fashion.
Note: If you split your pull request to small changes, please make sure any of the changes goes to master will not break anything. Otherwise, it can not be merged until this feature complete.
Write code on the new branch in your fork. The coding style used in zot is suggested by the Golang community. See the style doc for details.
Try to limit column width to 120 characters for both code and markdown documents such as this one.
As we are enforcing standards set by golangci-lint, please always run a full 'make' on source code before committing your changes. This will trigger compilation, unit tests and linting. If it reports an issue, in general, the preferred action is to fix the code. We try to enforce the guideline that code coverage doesn't drop as code is added or modified.
Once your pull request has been opened, zot will start a full CI pipeline against it that compiles, and runs unit tests and linters.
It is a great way to contribute to zot by reporting an issue. Well-written and complete bug reports are always welcome! Please open an issue on Github and follow the template to fill in required information.
Before opening any issue, please look up the existing issues to avoid submitting a duplication. If you find a match, you can "subscribe" to it to get notified on updates. If you have additional helpful information about the issue, please leave a comment.
When reporting issues, always include:
Build environment (golang compiler, etc) Configuration files of zot
Log files as per configuration.
Because the issues are open to the public, when submitting the log and configuration files, be sure to remove any sensitive information, e.g. user name, password, IP address, and company name. You can replace those parts with "REDACTED" or other strings like "****".
Be sure to include the steps to reproduce the problem if applicable. It can help us understand and fix your issue faster.
Update the documentation if you are creating or changing features. Good documentation is as important as the code itself.
The main location for the documentation is the website repository. The images referred to in documents can be placed in docs/img in that repo.
Documents are written with Markdown. See Writing on GitHub for more details.
You can propose new designs for existing zot features. You can also design entirely new features, Please submit a proposal in GitHub issues. zot maintainers will review this proposal as soon as possible. This is necessary to ensure the overall architecture is consistent and to avoid duplicated work in the roadmap.
