# Contributing guidelines | ||
|
||
Looking to contribute something to this project? Here's how you can help: | ||
|
||
Please take a moment to review this document in order to make the contribution process easy and effective for everyone involved. | ||
|
||
Following these guidelines helps to communicate that you respect the time of the developers managing and developing this open source project. In return, they should reciprocate that respect in addressing your issue or assessing patches and features. | ||
|
||
We also have a [code of conduct](https://ernest.io/conduct). | ||
|
||
## Using the issue tracker | ||
|
||
The issue tracker is the preferred channel for [bug reports](#bug-reports), [features requests](#feature-requests) and [submitting pull requests](#pull-requests), but please respect the following restrictions: | ||
|
||
* Please **do not** use the issue tracker for personal support requests. | ||
|
||
* Please **do not** derail issues. Keep the discussion on topic and | ||
respect the opinions of others. | ||

## Bug reports | ||
|
||
A bug is a _demonstrable problem_ that is caused by the code in the repository. | ||
Good bug reports are extremely helpful - thank you! | ||
|
||
Guidelines for bug reports: | ||
|
||
1. **Use the GitHub issue search** — check if the issue has already been | ||
reported. | ||
|
||
2. **Check if the issue has been fixed** — try to reproduce it using the | ||
latest `master` or `develop` branch in the repository. | ||
|
||
3. **Isolate the problem** — create a reduced test case and a live example. | ||
|
||
A good bug report shouldn't leave others needing to chase you up for more | ||
information. Please try to be as detailed as possible in your report. What is | ||
your environment? What steps will reproduce the issue? Which environment experience the problem? What would you expect to be the outcome? All these | ||
details will help people to fix any potential bugs. | ||
|
||
Example: | ||
|
||
> Short and descriptive example bug report title | ||
> | ||
> A summary of the issue and the environment in which it occurs. If | ||
> suitable, include the steps required to reproduce the bug. | ||
> | ||
> 1. This is the first step | ||
> 2. This is the second step | ||
> 3. Further steps, etc. | ||
> | ||
> `<url>` - a link to the reduced test case | ||
> | ||
> Any other information you want to share that is relevant to the issue being | ||
> reported. This might include the lines of code that you have identified as | ||
> causing the bug, and potential solutions (and your opinions on their | ||
> merits). | ||

## Feature requests | ||
|
||
Feature requests are welcome. But take a moment to find out whether your idea | ||
fits with the scope and aims of the project. It's up to *you* to make a strong | ||
case to convince the project's developers of the merits of this feature. Please | ||
provide as much detail and context as possible. | ||
|
||
<a name="pull-requests"></a> | ||
## Pull requests | ||
|
||
Good pull requests - patches, improvements, new features - are a fantastic | ||
help. They should remain focused in scope and avoid containing unrelated | ||
commits. | ||
|
||
[**Please ask first**](https://ernest.io/community) before embarking on any significant pull request (e.g. | ||
implementing features, refactoring code, porting to a different language), | ||
otherwise you risk spending a lot of time working on something that the | ||
project's developers might not want to merge into the project. | ||
|
||
Please adhere to the coding conventions used throughout a project (indentation, | ||
accurate comments, etc.) and any other requirements (such as test coverage). |
