Thank you for your interest in contributing to our project. Please read this document carefully before you start working on a feature that you intend to contribute back to this repository.

Building

Carnet is developed as a set of partial bash files that require assembly into a single executable file before Carnet can be used normally.

You can assemble carnet by using ./etc/assemble.sh. To assemble carnet for testing or redistribution, run the following command in the root of this repository:

bash ./etc/assemble.sh ./src/main.sh > ./carnet
chmod +x ./carnet

Testing

Carnet is bundled with a test suite that can be used to check for regressions and other issues. To run the test suite, you first build the script then run the following command in the root of this repository.

bash tests/carnet-test.sh

To run all tests, including those ignored by default, set the environment variable TEST_IGNORED to yes:

TEST_IGNORED=yes bash tests/carnet-test.sh

Contributing

We classify contributions into one of the following two categories:

  1. Major contributions where a substantial amount of code or other copyrightable material is provided or modified.

  2. Minor contributions that do not meet the threshold of copyrightability. (e.g Typographical errors, One-line fixes, etc)

If you are not sure whether your contribution will be treated as major or minor, please open an issue and ask.

Major Contributions

To have a major contribution merged into this project, please follow these steps:

  1. Before you start working on your contribution, open a new issue to determine if your contribution is compatible with this project's goals and constraints.

  2. Fill and submit the Kutometa Contributor License Agreement form if you haven't done so already. This agreement grants us the ability to license your contribution for commercial use and to address legal issues as they arise. This agreement does not assign your copyright to us.

  3. Start implementing your contribution.

  4. (Optional) add tests to the test suite.

  5. Run the test suite and make sure all tests pass.

  6. (Optional) Run the full test suite and make sure all tests pass.

  7. Update your issue and submit a patch or a pull request.

Minor Contributions

Minor contributions are exempt from the steps required for major contributions. We still recommend running the test suite especially when code is modified.
