We love your input! We want to make contributing to this project as easy and transparent as possible.

Contribution recogniton

We plan to use All Contributors specification to handle recognitions.

Code of Conduct

Microcks has adopted a Code of Conduct that we expect project participants to adhere to. Please read the full text so that you can understand what sort of behaviour is expected.

Our Development Process

We use Github to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.

Issues

Open an issue only if you want to report a bug or a feature. Don't open issues for questions or support, instead join our Discord #support channel or our GitHub discussions and ask there.

Bug Reports and Feature Requests

Please use our issues templates that provide you with hints on what information we need from you to help you out.

Pull Requests

Please, make sure you open an issue before starting with a Pull Request, unless it's a typo or a really obvious error. Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the specification. Take time to check the current working branch for the repository you want to contribute on before working 😉

Conventional commits

Our repositories follow Conventional Commits specification. Releasing to GitHub and NPM is done with the support of semantic-release.

Pull requests should have a title that follows the specification, otherwise, merging is blocked. If you are not familiar with the specification simply ask maintainers to modify. You can also use this cheatsheet if you want:

  • fix: prefix in the title indicates that PR is a bug fix and PATCH release must be triggered.
  • feat: prefix in the title indicates that PR is a feature and MINOR release must be triggered.
  • docs: prefix in the title indicates that PR is only related to the documentation and there is no need to trigger release.
  • chore: prefix in the title indicates that PR is only related to cleanup in the project and there is no need to trigger release.
  • test: prefix in the title indicates that PR is only related to tests and there is no need to trigger release.
  • refactor: prefix in the title indicates that PR is only related to refactoring and there is no need to trigger release.

What about MAJOR release? just add ! to the prefix, like fix!: or refactor!:

Prefix that follows specification is not enough though. Remember that the title must be clear and descriptive with usage of imperative mood.

Happy contributing ❤️

License

When you submit changes, your submissions are understood to be under the same Apache 2.0 License that covers the project. Feel free to contact the maintainers if that's a concern.
