Contributing

🎉 Hey, thanks for taking the time to contribute! 🎉

Check out some of the open issues and see if anything fits your skills. If you have an idea for a new feature, you can also open a new issue.

If that doesn't fit, you can also write documentation or fix typos, as there might be a handful.

Code of Conduct

This project and everyone participating in it is governed by the Code of Conduct. By participating, you are expected to uphold this code. Please report unacceptable behavior to project moderators.

You can read our Code of Conduct here.

Pull Requests

Doing your first pull request? Great, awesome to have you on-board! If you're unsure how to start, you can learn how from this free series: How to Contribute to an Open Source Project on GitHub.

  • To avoid wasted development time, please discuss the change you wanna make. This can be done with on GitHub Issues. If possible, discuss it publicly, so other people can chime in.
  • The develop branch is used for the current development build. For that reason, please, do not submit your PRs against the main branch.
  • Ensure that your code respects the repository's formatting standard (defined here). To do this, you can run:
dotnet format --verify-no-changes

Or, with Nuke:

nuke Format
  • Make sure your code passes the tests. Do do this, you can run:
dotnet test

Or, with Nuke:

nuke Test

It is also recommended to add new tests, if you're implementing a new feature.

Development Setup

There are a few ways of setting up the project for development:

Developing locally

Required Tools

  • Code editor
    • We recommend VS Code. Upon opening the project, a few extensions will be automatically recommended for install.
  • .NET SDK 8.0
  • Git

Getting started

  1. Fork the repository to your own account and clone it:

    git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/fetcharr.git
cd fetcharr/

  2. Add the upstream remote:

    git remote add upstream https://github.com/fetcharr/fetcharr.git

  3. Create a new branch:

    git checkout -b BRANCH_NAME develop
  • For the sake of the maintainers, we recommend you give your branch a meaningful name which sumarizes what the contribution does.
    • Good examples:
      • feat-healthz-endpoint
      • fix-plex-cache-invalidation
      • docs-readme-typo
    • Bad examples:
      • bug-fix
      • feature
      • develop
  1. Setup your development environment:
dotnet build src/Fetcharr.sln
dotnet run --project src/API/src/Fetcharr.API.csproj
  1. Add your contribution and test your changes.
  • Be sure to follow both the code guidelines and commit guidelines.
  • If you need to update your fork, rebase from develop: 
    git fetch upstream
git rebase upstream/develop
git push origin BRANCH_NAME -f

Single-click setup

If you prefer not installing anything locally, you can open the project in Github Codespaces or Gitpod by clicking the buttons below:

Code Guidelines

  • Your code must be formatted correctly; otherwise the tests will fail.
    • Before committing, it is a good idea to run dotnet format to make sure everything is correct.
    • If you use VS Code, it should also warn you about incorrectly formatted code (although, not always).
  • Always rebase your commit to the latest develop branch. Do not merge develop into your branch.
  • All commits must follow the guidelines in Commit Guidelines.

Commit Guidelines

This repository takes use of a slightly modified version of the Angular commit guidelines.

Types

Types Description
build New build version.
chore Changes to the build process or auxiliary tools such as changelog generation. No production code change.
ci Changes related to continuous integration only (GitHub Actions, CircleCI, etc.).
docs Documentation only changes.
feat A new feature.
fix A bug fix, whether it fixes an existing issue or not.
perf A code change that improves performance.
refactor A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature.
style Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc.).
test Adding missing or correcting existing tests.

Scopes

Instead of using a pre-defined list of scopes, the scope should define the affected component in the project tree.

For example, if you add a new feature to the Sonarr provider, the scope might be sonarr. Other examples include plex, cache, config, etc.

Please, try to be precise enough to describe the field of the change, but not so precise that the scope loses it's meaning.

Versioning

This repository takes use of Semantic Versioning for new releases.
