Contributing to twilio-go

We'd love for you to contribute to our source code and to make twilio-go even better than it is today! Here are the guidelines we'd like you to follow:

Code of Conduct

Help us keep twilio-go open and inclusive. Please be kind to and considerate of other developers, as we all have the same goal: make twilio-go as good as it can be.

Got an API/Product Question or Problem?

If you have questions about how to use twilio-go, please see our docs, and if you don't find the answer there, please contact Twilio Support with any issues you have.

Found an Issue?

If you find a bug in the source code or a mistake in the documentation, you can help us by submitting an issue. This helper library was generated by leveraging OpenAPI Generator and the specs located at twilio/twilio-oai. If the issue is in the spec, please submit an issue there.

Please see the Submission Guidelines below.

Want a Feature?

You can request a new feature by submitting an issue to our GitHub Repository. If you would like to implement a new feature then consider what kind of change it is:

  • Major Changes that you wish to contribute to the project should be discussed first with twilio-go contributors in an issue or pull request so that we can develop a proper solution and better coordinate our efforts, prevent duplication of work, and help you to craft the change so that it is successfully accepted into the project.
  • Small Changes can be crafted and submitted to the GitHub Repository as a Pull Request.

Want a Doc Fix?

If you want to help improve the docs in the helper library, it's a good idea to let others know what you're working on to minimize duplication of effort. Create a new issue (or comment on a related existing one) to let others know what you're working on.

For large fixes, please build and test the documentation before submitting the PR to be sure you haven't accidentally introduced layout or formatting issues.

Submission Guidelines

Submitting an Issue

Before you submit your issue search the archive, maybe your question was already answered.

If your issue appears to be a bug, and hasn't been reported, open a new issue. Help us to maximize the effort we can spend fixing issues and adding new features by not reporting duplicate issues. Providing the following information will increase the chances of your issue being dealt with quickly:

  • Overview of the Issue - if an error is being thrown a non-minified stack trace helps
  • Motivation for or Use Case - explain why this is a bug for you
  • twilio-go Version(s) - is it a regression?
  • Operating System (if relevant) - is this a problem with all systems or only specific ones?
  • Reproduce the Error - provide an isolated code snippet or an unambiguous set of steps.
  • Related Issues - has a similar issue been reported before?
  • Suggest a Fix - if you can't fix the bug yourself, perhaps you can point to what might be causing the problem (line of code or commit)

If you get help, help others. Good karma rules!

Submitting a Pull Request

Before you submit your pull request consider the following guidelines:

  • Search GitHub for an open or closed Pull Request that relates to your submission. You don't want to duplicate effort.

  • Make your changes in a new git branch:

    git checkout -b my-fix-branch main

  • Create your patch, including appropriate test cases.

  • Follow our Coding Rules.

  • Run the full twilio-go test suite (aliased by make test), and ensure that all tests pass.

  • Commit your changes using a descriptive commit message.

    git commit -a

    Note: the optional commit -a command line option will automatically "add" and "rm" edited files.

  • Build your changes locally to ensure all the tests pass:

    make test

  • Push your branch to GitHub:

    git push origin my-fix-branch

In GitHub, send a pull request to twilio-go:main. If we suggest changes, then:

  • Make the required updates.
  • Re-run the twilio-go test suite to ensure tests are still passing.
  • Commit your changes to your branch (e.g. my-fix-branch).
  • Push the changes to your GitHub repository (this will update your Pull Request).

That's it! Thank you for your contribution!

After your pull request is merged

After your pull request is merged, you can safely delete your branch and pull the changes from the main (upstream) repository.

Coding Rules

To ensure consistency throughout the source code, keep these rules in mind as you are working:

  • All features or bug fixes must be tested by one or more tests.
  • All classes and methods must be documented.
