# Contributing Guidelines
|
|
|
|
Some basic conventions for contributing to this project.
|
|
|
|
### General
|
|
|
|
Please make sure that there aren't existing pull requests attempting to address the issue mentioned. Likewise, please check for issues related to update, as someone else may be working on the issue in a branch or fork.
|
|
|
|
* Non-trivial changes should be discussed in an issue first
|
|
* Develop in a topic branch, not master
|
|
|
|
### Linting
|
|
|
|
Please check your code using `grunt lint` before submitting your pull requests.
|
|
|
|
### Commit Message Format
|
|
|
|
Each commit message should include a **type**, a **scope** and a **subject**:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
<type>(<scope>): <subject>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Lines should not exceed 100 characters. This allows the message to be easier to read on github as well as in various git tools and produces a nice, neat commit log ie:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
#271 feat(containers): add exposed ports in the containers view
|
|
#270 fix(templates): fix a display issue in the templates view
|
|
#269 style(dashboard): update dashboard with new layout
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Type
|
|
|
|
Must be one of the following:
|
|
|
|
* **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 or adds a feature
|
|
* **test**: Adding missing tests
|
|
* **chore**: Changes to the build process or auxiliary tools and libraries such as documentation
|
|
generation
|
|
|
|
#### Scope
|
|
|
|
The scope could be anything specifying place of the commit change. For example `networks`,
|
|
`containers`, `images` etc...
|
|
|
|
#### Subject
|
|
|
|
The subject contains succinct description of the change:
|
|
|
|
* use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes"
|
|
* don't capitalize first letter
|
|
* no dot (.) at the end
