# Contributing Everyone is welcome to contribute to GoDaddy's Open Source Software. Contributing doesn’t just mean submitting pull requests. To get involved you can, report or triage bugs and participate in discussions on the evolution of each project. No matter how you want to get involved, we ask that you first learn what’s expected of anyone who participates in the project by reading the Contribution Guidelines. ## Answering Questions One of the most important and immediate ways you can support this project is to or [Github][issues]. Whether you’re helping a newcomer understand a feature or troubleshooting an edge case with a seasoned developer, your knowledge and experience with JS can go a long way to help others. ## Reporting Bugs **Do not report potential security vulnerabilities here. Refer to [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md) for more details about the process of reporting security vulnerabilities.** Before submitting a ticket, please be sure to have a simple replication of the behavior. If the issue is isolated to one of the dependencies of this project. Please create a Github issue in that project. All dependencies are open source software and can be easily found through [npm]. Submit a ticket for your issue, assuming one does not already exist: - Create it on our [Issue Tracker][issues] - Clearly describe the issue by following the template layout - Make sure to include steps to reproduce the bug. - A reproducible (unit) test could be helpful in solving the bug. - Describe the environment that (re)produced the problem. > For a bug to be actionable, it needs to be reproducible. If you or > contributors can’t reproduce the bug, try to figure out why. Please take > care to stay involved in discussions around solving the problem. ## Triaging bugs or contributing code If you're triaging a bug, try to reduce it. Once a bug can be reproduced, reduce it to the smallest amount of code possible. Reasoning about a sample or unit test that reproduces a bug in just a few lines of code is easier than reasoning about a longer sample. From a practical perspective, contributions are as simple as: - Forking the repository on GitHub. - Making changes to your forked repository. - When committing, reference your issue (if present) and include a note about the fix. - If possible, and if applicable, please also add/update unit tests for your changes. - Push the changes to your fork and submit a pull request to the 'master' branch of the projects' repository. If you are interested in making a large change and feel unsure about its overall effect, please make sure to first discuss the change and reach a consensus with core contributors. Then ask about the best way to go about making the change. ## Code Review Any open source project relies heavily on code review to improve software quality: > All significant changes, by all developers, must be reviewed before they > are committed to the repository. Code reviews are conducted on GitHub through > comments on pull requests or commits. The developer responsible for a code > change is also responsible for making all necessary review-related changes. Sometimes code reviews will take longer than you would hope for, especially for larger features. Here are some accepted ways to speed up review times for your patches: - Review other people’s changes. If you help out, everybody will be more willing to do the same for you. Goodwill is our currency. - Split your change into multiple smaller changes. The smaller your change, the higher the probability that somebody will take a quick look at it. - Remember that you’re asking for valuable time from other professional developers. **Note that anyone is welcome to review and give feedback on a change, but only people with commit access to the repository can approve it.** ## Attribution of Changes When contributors submit a change to this project, after that change is approved, other developers with commit access may commit it for the author. When doing so, it is important to retain correct attribution of the contribution. Generally speaking, Git handles attribution automatically. ## Code Documentation Ensure that every function in this project is documented and follows the standards set by [JSDoc]. Finally, please stick to the code style as defined by the [Godaddy JS styleguide][style]. # Additional Resources - [General GitHub Documentation](https://help.github.com/) - [GitHub Pull Request documentation](https://help.github.com/send-pull-requests/) - [JSDoc] [issues]: https://github.com/warehouseai/warehouse.ai-api-client/issues [JSDoc]: http://usejsdoc.org/ [npm]: http://npmjs.org/ [style]: https://github.com/godaddy/javascript/#godaddy-style
