Fail #

❌ readme-starts-with-community-plus-header #

The README of a community plus project should have a community plus header at the start of the README. If you already have a community plus header and this rule is failing, your header may be out of date. For more information please visit https://opensource.newrelic.com/oss-category/. Below is a list of files or patterns that failed:

• README.md: The first 1 lines do not contain the pattern(s): Open source Community Plus header (see https://opensource.newrelic.com/oss-category).
  • 🔨 Suggested Fix: prepend [![Community Plus header](https://github.com/newrelic/opensource-website/raw/master/src/images/categories/Community_Plus.png)](https://opensource.newrelic.com/oss-category/#community-plus) to file

❌ readme-contains-link-to-security-policy #

Doesn't contain a link to the security policy for this repository (README.md). New Relic recommends putting a link to the open source security policy for your project (https://github.com/newrelic/<repo-name>/security/policy) in the README. For an example of this, please see the "a note about vulnerabilities" section of the Open By Default repository. For more information please visit https://nerdlife.datanerd.us/new-relic/security-guidelines-for-publishing-source-code.

❌ third-party-notices-file-exists #

A THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md file must be present in your repository to grant attribution to all dependencies being used by this project. For JavaScript projects, you can generate this file using the oss-cli. For more information please visit https://docs.google.com/document/d/1y644Pwi82kasNP5VPVjDV8rsmkBKclQVHFkz8pwRUtE/view. Did not find a file matching the specified patterns. Below is a list of files or patterns that failed:

✅ license-file-exists #

Found file (LICENSE). New Relic requires that all open source projects have an associated license contained within the project. This license must be permissive (e.g. non-viral or copyleft), and we recommend Apache 2.0 for most use cases. For more information please visit https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vML4aY_czsY0URu2yiP3xLAKYufNrKsc7o4kjuegpDw/edit.

✅ readme-file-exists #

Found file (README.md). New Relic requires a README file in all projects. This README should give a general overview of the project, and should point to additional resources (security, contributing, etc.) where developers and users can learn further. For more information please visit https://github.com/newrelic/open-by-default.

✅ readme-contains-discuss-topic #

Contains a link to the appropriate discuss.newrelic.com topic (README.md). New Relic recommends directly linking the your appropriate discuss.newrelic.com topic in the README, allowing developer an alternate method of getting support.
