Contributing to bin2cpp

We love your input! We want to make contributing to this project as easy and transparent as possible, whether it's:

  • Reporting a bug
  • Discussing the current state of the code
  • Submitting a fix
  • Proposing new features
  • Becoming a maintainer

When contributing to this repository, please first discuss the change you wish to make via issue, email, or any other method with the owners of this repository before making a change.

Please note we have a code of conduct, please follow it in all your interactions with the project.

We develop with Github

We use github to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.

We use Github Flow, so all code changes happen through pull requests

Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the codebase (we use Github Flow). We actively welcome your pull requests:

  1. Fork the repository and create your branch from master.
  2. If you've added code that should be tested, add tests.
  3. If you've changed APIs, update the documentation.
  4. Ensure the test suite passes.
  5. Make sure your code lints and follow coding styles.
  6. Issue that pull request!

Any contributions you make will be under the MIT Software License

In short, when you submit code changes, your submissions are understood to be under the same MIT License that covers the project. Feel free to contact the maintainers if that's a concern.

Report bugs using Github's issues

We encourage you to write bug reports with detail, background, and sample code. We use GitHub issues to track public bugs. If you have found a problem, fill out a Bug Report which help clarify your bug description and your expectations. If you are not sure about your problem, you can also open a generic issue; it's that easy!

Great Bug Reports tend to have:

  • A quick summary and/or background
  • Steps to reproduce, be specific!
  • What you expected would happen
  • What actually happens
  • Notes (possibly including why you think this might be happening, or stuff you tried that didn't work)

People love thorough bug reports.

Use a consistent Coding Style

This project uses Google's C++ Style Guide for naming functions, classes, types and objects. Not all the code was ported to the new coding style but new code should follow this coding style.

cpplint can be used to validate code formatting. It is a python based coding style checker for C/C++. You can install with pip install cpplint. Then you can just use cpplint file.cpp or cpplint --recursive . (including the last . character)
