Here's what you need to know! ## License **importunate** is proudly licenced under the MIT license, and so are all contributions. Please see the [`LICENSE`] file in this directory for more details. [`LICENSE`]: https://github.com/wainwrightmark/importunate/blob/main/LICENSE ## Pull Requests To make changes to **importunate**, please send in pull requests on GitHub to the `main` branch. I'll review them and either merge or request changes. GitHub Actions tests everything as well, so you may get feedback from it too. If you make additions or other changes to a pull request, feel free to either amend previous commits or only add new ones, however you prefer. I may ask you to squash your commits before merging, depending. ## Issue Tracker You can find the issue tracker [on GitHub](https://github.com/wainwrightmark/importunate/issues). If you've found a problem with **importunate**, please open an issue there. ## Development workflow Check out the `README.md` under the [examples/ folder](examples/README.md) for details on the development process. ## Examples Do you want to help show off some ways for how the library works? Feel free to work on an example and open up a PR! [install Rust]: http://rust-lang.org/install.html To run the tests: ```bash $ cargo test ``` ## Types of Contributions ### Report Bugs Report bugs at https://github.com/wainwrightmark/importunate/issues. If you are reporting a bug, please include: * Your operating system name and version. * Any details about your local setup that might be helpful in troubleshooting. * Detailed steps to reproduce the bug. ### Fix Bug Look through the GitHub issues for bugs. Anything tagged with "bug" is open to whoever wants to implement it. ### Implement Features Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "feature" is open to whoever wants to implement it. ### Write Documentation importunate could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official importunate docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts, articles, and such. ### Submit Feedback The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/wainwrightmark/importunate/issues. If you are proposing a feature: * Explain in detail how it would work. * Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement. * Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions are welcome :) ## Get Started! Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up `importunate` for local development. 1. Fork the `importunate` repo on GitHub. 2. Clone your fork locally: ```shell $ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/importunate.git ``` 3. Create a branch for local development: ```shell $ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature ``` Now you can make your changes locally. 4. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass the tests: ```shell $ cargo test ``` 5. If necessary, create a new Rust script under the `examples/` folder which demonstrates usage of the new feature. Then, run the new example script to confirm that it works as intended: ```shell $ cargo run --example my_awesome_example ``` 6. Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub: ```shell $ git add . $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes." $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature ``` 7. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website. ## Pull Request Guidelines Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines: 1. The pull request should include tests. 2. If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the feature to the list in README.md. ## Deploying A reminder for the maintainers on how to deploy. Make sure all your changes are committed (including an entry in `CHANGELOG.md`). *First-time only*: to update `git push` to push both the commits and tags simultaneously, run this command as mentioned in [this post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3745135/push-git-commits-tags-simultaneously): ```shell $ git config --global push.followTags true ``` Then run: ```shell $ cargo bump patch --git-tag # possible: major / minor / patch $ git push ``` GitHub Actions will then deploy to [crates.io](https://crates.io/) if tests pass, once code is merged to the `main` branch.
