This allows you to freely experiment with your changes. +When your changes are complete, submit a [pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/). +All pull requests will be reviewed and merged if they suit some general guidelines: + +* Changes are located in a topic branch +* For new functionality, proper tests are written +* Changes should follow the existing coding style and standards + +Please continue reading in the following sections for a step by step guide. + +## <a id="contributing-fork"></a> Fork the Project + +[Fork the project](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/) to your GitHub account +and clone the repository: + +``` +git clone git@github.com:dnsmichi/icingaweb2-module-map.git +cd icingaweb2-module-map +``` + +Add a new remote `upstream` with this repository as value. + +``` +git remote add upstream https://github.com/nbuchwitz/icingaweb2-module-map.git +``` + +You can pull updates to your fork's master branch: + +``` +git fetch --all +git pull upstream HEAD +``` + +Please continue to learn about [branches](CONTRIBUTING.md#contributing-branches). + +## <a id="contributing-branches"></a> Branches + +Choosing a proper name for a branch helps us identify its purpose and possibly +find an associated bug or feature. +Generally a branch name should include a topic such as `fix` or `feature` followed +by a description and an issue number if applicable. Branches should have only changes +relevant to a specific issue. + +``` +git checkout -b fix/service-template-typo-1234 +git checkout -b feature/config-handling-1235 +``` + +Continue to apply your changes and test them. More details on specific changes: + +* [Source Code Patches](#contributing-patches-source-code) +* [Documentation Patches](#contributing-patches-documentation) + +## <a id="contributing-commits"></a> Commits + +Once you've finished your work in a branch, please ensure to commit +your changes. A good commit message includes a short topic, additional body +and a reference to the issue you wish to solve (if existing). + +Fixes: + +``` +Fix missing style in detail view + +refs #4567 +``` + +Features: + +``` +Add DateTime picker + +refs #1234 +``` + +You can add multiple commits during your journey to finish your patch. +Don't worry, you can squash those changes into a single commit later on. + +## <a id="contributing-pull-requests"></a> Pull Requests + +Once you've committed your changes, please update your local master +branch and rebase your fix/feature branch against it before submitting a PR. + +``` +git checkout master +git pull upstream HEAD + +git checkout fix/style-detail-view +git rebase master +``` + +Once you've resolved any conflicts, push the branch to your remote repository. +It might be necessary to force push after rebasing - use with care! + +New branch: +``` +git push --set-upstream origin fix/style-detail-view +``` + +Existing branch: +``` +git push -f origin fix/style-detail-view +``` + +You can now either use the [hub](https://hub.github.com) CLI tool to create a PR, or nagivate +to your GitHub repository and create a PR there. + +The pull request should again contain a telling subject and a reference +with `fixes` to an existing issue id if any. That allows developers +to automatically resolve the issues once your PR gets merged. + +``` +hub pull-request + +<a telling subject> + +fixes #1234 +``` + +Thanks a lot for your contribution! + + +### <a id="contributing-rebase"></a> Rebase a Branch + +If you accidentally sent in a PR which was not rebased against the upstream master, +developers might ask you to rebase your PR. + +First off, fetch and pull `upstream` master. + +``` +git checkout master +git fetch --all +git pull upstream HEAD +``` + +Then change to your working branch and start rebasing it against master: + +``` +git checkout fix/style-detail-view +git rebase master +``` + +If you are running into a conflict, rebase will stop and ask you to fix the problems. + +``` +git status + + both modified: path/to/conflict.php +``` + +Edit the file and search for `>>>`. Fix, build, test and save as needed. + +Add the modified file(s) and continue rebasing. + +``` +git add path/to/conflict.php +git rebase --continue +``` + +Once succeeded ensure to push your changed history remotely. + +``` +git push -f origin fix/style-detail-view +``` + + +If you fear to break things, do the rebase in a backup branch first and later replace your current branch. + +``` +git checkout fix/style-detail-view +git checkout -b fix/style-detail-view-rebase + +git rebase master + +git branch -D fix/style-detail-view +git checkout -b fix/style-detail-view + +git push -f origin fix/style-detail-view +``` + +### <a id="contributing-squash"></a> Squash Commits + +> **Note:** +> +> Be careful with squashing. This might lead to non-recoverable mistakes. +> +> This is for advanced Git users. + +Say you want to squash the last 3 commits in your branch into a single one. + +Start an interactive (`-i`) rebase from current HEAD minus three commits (`HEAD~3`). + +``` +git rebase -i HEAD~3 +``` + +Git opens your preferred editor. `pick` the commit in the first line, change `pick` to `squash` on the other lines. + +``` +pick e4bf04e47 Fix style detail view +squash d7b939d99 Tests +squash b37fd5377 Doc updates +``` + +Save and let rebase to its job. Then force push the changes to the remote origin. + +``` +git push -f origin fix/style-detail-view +``` + + +## <a id="contributing-testing"></a> Testing + +You can help test-drive the Git master inside the +[Icinga 2 Vagrant boxes](https://github.com/icinga/icinga-vagrant). + + $ git clone https://github.com/Icinga/icinga-vagrant.git + $ cd icinga-vagrant/icinga2x + $ vagrant up + $ vagrant ssh -c "cd /usr/share/icingaweb2/modules/map && sudo git pull" + +## <a id="contributing-patches-source-code"></a> Source Code Patches + +Icinga Web 2 is written in PHP and JavaScript. This module relies on the base +framework. + +Start your work in a test installation where the module's directory is mounted +and you can see codes change in a direct manner. + + +## <a id="contributing-review"></a> Review + +### <a id="contributing-pr-review"></a> Pull Request Review + +This is only important for developers who will review pull requests. If you want to join +the development team, kindly contact us. + +- Ensure that the style guide applies. +- Verify that the patch fixes a problem or linked issue, if any. +- Discuss new features with team members. +- Test the patch in your local dev environment. + +If there are changes required, kindly ask for an updated patch. + +Once the review is completed, merge the PR via GitHub. + +#### <a id="contributing-pr-review-fixes"></a> Pull Request Review Fixes + +In order to amend the commit message, fix conflicts or add missing changes, you can +add your changes to the PR. + +A PR is just a pointer to a different Git repository and branch. +By default, pull requests allow to push into the repository of the PR creator. + +Example for [#4956](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga2/pull/4956): + +At the bottom it says "Add more commits by pushing to the fix/persistent-comments-are-not-persistent branch on TheFlyingCorpse/icinga2." + +First off, add the remote repository as additional origin and fetch its content: + +``` +git remote add theflyingcorpse https://github.com/TheFlyingCorpse/icinga2 +git fetch --all +``` + +Checkout the mentioned remote branch into a local branch (Note: `theflyingcorpse` is the name of the remote): + +``` +git checkout theflyingcorpse/fix/persistent-comments-are-not-persistent -b fix/persistent-comments-are-not-persistent +``` + +Rebase, amend, squash or add your own commits on top. + +Once you are satisfied, push the changes to the remote `theflyingcorpse` and its branch `fix/persistent-comments-are-not-persistent`. +The syntax here is `git push <remote> <localbranch>:<remotebranch>`. + +``` +git push theflyingcorpse fix/persistent-comments-are-not-persistent:fix/persistent-comments-are-not-persistent +``` + +In case you've changed the commit history (rebase, amend, squash), you'll need to force push. Be careful, this can't be reverted! + +``` +git push -f theflyingcorpse fix/persistent-comments-are-not-persistent:fix/persistent-comments-are-not-persistent +``` |
