Welcome to ChaosBlade world, here is a list of contributing guide for you. If you find something incorrect or missing content in the page, please submit an issue or PR to fix it.
Every action to make project better is encouraged. On GitHub, every improvement for the project could be via a PR (short for pull request).
- If you find a typo, try to fix it!
- If you find a bug, try to fix it!
- If you find some redundant codes, try to remove them!
- If you find some test cases missing, try to add them!
- If you could enhance a feature, please DO NOT hesitate!
- If you find code implicit, try to add comments to make it clear!
- If you find code ugly, try to refactor that!
- If you can help to improve documents, it could not be better!
- If you find document incorrect, just do it and fix that!
- ...
Actually it is impossible to list them completely. Just remember one principle:
WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO ANY PR FROM YOU.
Before you contribute, you need to register a Github ID. Prepare the following environment:
- JDK 1.6+
- git
We use the master
branch as the development branch, which indicates that this is a unstable branch.
Here are the workflow for contributors:
- Fork to your own
- Clone fork to local repository
- Create a new branch and work on it
- Keep your branch in sync
- Commit your changes (make sure your commit message concise)
- Push your commits to your forked repository
- Create a pull request
Please follow the pull request template. Please make sure the PR has a corresponding issue.
After creating a PR, one or more reviewers will be assigned to the pull request. The reviewers will review the code.
Before merging a PR, squash any fix review feedback, typo, merged, and rebased sorts of commits. The final commit message should be clear and concise.
In the project root directory, execute the following command to compile
Sh build.sh
The compilation result will be stored in the target directory.
We suggest that all contributors should install p3c plugin to unify code style and analyze code quality.
Commit message could help reviewers better understand what is the purpose of submitted PR. It could help accelerate the code review procedure as well. We encourage contributors to use EXPLICIT commit message rather than ambiguous message. In general, we advocate the following commit message type:
- feat: A new feature
- fix: A bug fix
- docs: Documentation only changes
- style: Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc)
- refactor: A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
- perf: A code change that improves performance
- test: Adding missing or correcting existing tests
- chore: Changes to the build process or auxiliary tools and libraries such as documentation generation
On the other side, we discourage contributors from committing message like the following ways:
fix bugupdateadd doc
If you get lost, please see How to Write a Git Commit Message for a start.
Commit content represents all content changes included in one commit. We had better include things in one single commit which could support reviewer's complete review without any other commits' help. In another word, contents in one single commit can pass the CI to avoid code mess. In brief, there are two minor rules for us to keep in mind:
- avoid very large change in a commit;
- complete and reviewable for each commit.
No matter commit message, or commit content, we do take more emphasis on code review.
We use GitHub Issues and Pull Requests for trackers.
If you find a typo in document, find a bug in code, or want new features, or want to give suggestions, you can open an issue on GitHub to report it. Please follow the guideline message in the issue template.
If you want to contribute, please follow the contribution workflow and create a new pull request. If your PR contains large changes, e.g. component refactor or new components, please write detailed documents about its design and usage.
Note that a single PR should not be too large. If heavy changes are required, it's better to separate the changes to a few individual PRs.
All code should be well reviewed by one or more committers. Some principles:
- Readability: Important code should be well-documented. Comply with our code style.
- Elegance: New functions, classes or components should be well designed.
- Testability: Important code should be well-tested (high unit test coverage).

The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the patch, which certifies that you wrote it or otherwise have the right to pass it on as an open-source patch. The rules are pretty simple: if you can certify the below (from developercertificate.org):
