Kasfy Contributing Guide

Hi! I'm really excited that you are interested in contributing to Kasfy. Before submitting your contribution, please make sure to take a moment and read through the following guidelines:

Issue Reporting Guidelines

Pull Request Guidelines

  • The master branch is just a snapshot of the latest stable release. All development should be done in dedicated branches. Do not submit PRs against the master branch.

  • Checkout a topic branch from the relevant branch, e.g. dev or alpha, and merge back against that branch.

  • It's OK to have multiple small commits as you work on the PR - GitHub will automatically squash it before merging.

  • Make sure npm test passes. (see development setup)

  • If adding a new feature:

    • Add accompanying test case.
    • Provide a convincing reason to add this feature. Ideally, you should open a suggestion issue first and have it approved before working on it.
  • If fixing bug:

    • If you are resolving a special issue, add (fix #xxxx[,#xxxx]) (#xxxx is the issue id) in your PR title for a better release log, e.g. update entities encoding/decoding (fix #3899).
    • Provide a detailed description of the bug in the PR. Live demo preferred.
    • Add appropriate test coverage if applicable.

Development Setup

You will need Node.js version 10+, or yarn.

After cloning the repo, run:

$ npm install # install the dependencies of the project

Committing Changes

Commit messages should follow the commit message convention so that changelogs can be automatically generated. Commit messages will be automatically validated upon commit. If you are not familiar with the commit message convention, you can use npm run commit instead of git commit, which provides an interactive CLI for generating proper commit messages.

Commonly used NPM scripts

# watch and demo
$ npm start

# run the full test suite, including linting/type checking
$ npm test

There are some other scripts available in the scripts section of the package.json file.

The default test script will do the following: node ./node_modules/babel-cli/bin/babel-node.js server.js' Please make sure to have this pass successfully before submitting a PR. Although the same tests will be run against your PR on the CI server, it is better to have it working locally.

Financial Contribution

As a pure community-driven project without major corporate backing, we also welcome financial contributions via Patreon and OpenCollective.
