Please see the troubleshooting and debugging guide here.
Before reporting a new issue, please ensure that the issue was not already reported or fixed by searching through our issues list.
When creating a new issue, please be sure to include a title and clear description, as much relevant information as possible, and, if possible, a test case.
If you discover a security bug, please do not report it through GitHub. Instead, please see security procedures in SECURITY.md.
make docker can be used to build the freshclam-mirror container.
make push-docker is also provided as a shortcut for building and then
publishing the freshclam-mirror container to a registry. You can override the
destination registry like:
DOCKER_REGISTRY=docker.io/tehsmash make push-docker
You must be logged into the docker registry locally before using this target.
Before sending a new pull request, take a look at existing pull requests and issues to see if the proposed change or fix has been discussed in the past, or if the change was already implemented but not yet released.
We expect new pull requests to include tests for any affected behavior, and, as we follow semantic versioning, we may reserve breaking changes until the next major version release.
We welcome anyone that wants to contribute to freshclam-mirror to triage and reply to open issues to help troubleshoot and fix existing bugs. Here is what you can do:
- Help ensure that existing issues follows the recommendations from the Reporting Issues section, providing feedback to the issue's author on what might be missing.
- Review and update the existing content of our Wiki with up-to-date instructions and code samples.
- Review existing pull requests, and testing patches against real existing applications that use freshclam-mirror.
- Write a test, or add a missing test case to an existing test.
