Contributing

If you want to contribute code you can get started by looking for issues marked as up for grabs. We also have the easy tag for issues suitable if you are unfamiliar with roslyn.

You can also help by filing issues, participating in discussions and doing code review.

Implementing a diagnostic

  1. To start working on a diagnostic, add a comment to the issue indicating you are working on implementing it.

  2. Add a new issue for a code fix for the diagnostic. For example, I added #171 when I worked on #6. Even if no code fix is possible, the issue is a place for discussions regarding possible corrections. Code fixes may, but do not have to be implemented alongside the diagnostic.

  3. If a diagnostic or code fix is submitted without tests, it might be rejected. However, it may be accepted provided all of the following are true:

    1. The code is disabled by default, by passing AnalyzerConstants.DisabledNoTests for the isEnabledByDefault parameter when creating the DiagnosticDescriptor. It will be enabled by default only after tests are in place.
    2. A new issue was created for implementing tests for the item (e.g. #176).
    3. Evidence was given that the feature is currently operational, and the code appears to be a solid starting point for other contributors to continue the implementation effort.

Building
