Contributing to LinkStack

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

We use Discord to communicate

This is the fastest way to reach us. Feel free to contact the team for any questions you have. Join here

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 repo and create your branch from master.
  2. Clone your repository to your local machine.
  3. Open a terminal window in that folder.
  4. Run these commands:
composer update -vvv

php artisan migrate
php artisan db:seed 
php artisan db:seed --class="AdminSeeder"
php artisan db:seed --class="PageSeeder"
php artisan db:seed --class="ButtonSeeder"
  1. Move the folder into a local web server (make sure you double-check the requirements).
  2. Now edit any files you want to change.
  3. Commit your changes to your forked repository.
  4. Issue that pull request!

Any contributions you make will be under the GPL-3.0 Software License

In short, when you submit code changes, your submissions are understood to be under the same GPL-3.0 that covers the project. Feel free to contact the maintainers if that's a concern.

Report bugs using Github's issues

We use GitHub issues to track public bugs. Report a bug by opening a new issue; it's that easy!

Write bug reports with detail, background, and sample code

Great Bug Reports tend to have:

  • A quick summary and/or background
  • Steps to reproduce
    • Be specific!
    • Give sample code if you can. My stackoverflow question includes sample code that anyone with a base R setup can run to reproduce what I was seeing
  • 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. I'm not even kidding.
