# Contributing Guidelines

If you're interested in contributing to this project, here are a few ways to do so:

- Bug fixes
  - If you find a bug, please first report it using Github Issues.
  - Issues that have already been identified as a bug will be labelled `bug`.
  - If you'd like to submit a fix for a bug, send a Pull Request from your own fork and mention the Issue number.
    - Include a test that isolates the bug and verifies that it was fixed.
- New Features
  - If you'd like to add a feature to the library that doesn't already exist, feel free to describe the feature in a new Github Issue.
  - Issues that have been identified as a feature request will be labelled `enhancement`.
  - If you'd like to implement the new feature, please wait for feedback from the project maintainers before spending too much time writing the code. In some cases, `enhancement`s may not align well with the project objectives at the time.
- Documentation & Miscellaneous
  - If you think the documentation could be clearer, or you have an alternative
    implementation of something that may have more advantages, we would love to hear it.
    - If its a trivial change, go ahead and send a Pull Request with the changes you have in mind
    - If not, open a Github Issue to discuss the idea first.

## Requirements

For a contribution to be accepted:

- Code must follow existing styling conventions
- Commit messages must be descriptive. Related issues should be mentioned by number.
- The [sample applications](https://github.com/opentok/opentok-react-native-samples) must build with your changes. 

If the contribution doesn't meet these criteria, a maintainer will discuss it with you on the Issue. You can still continue to add more commits to the branch you have sent the Pull Request from.

## How To

1. Fork this repository on GitHub.
2. Clone/fetch your fork to your local development machine.
3. Create a new branch (e.g. `issue-12`, `feat.add_foo`, etc) and check it out.
4. Make your changes and commit them.
5. Test your changes with the [sample applications](https://github.com/opentok/opentok-react-native-samples). (you can use `npm pack` and `npm install` to install a local version of the library.)
6. Push your new branch to your fork. (e.g. `git push myname issue-12`)
7. Open a Pull Request from your new branch to the original fork's `master` branch.
