How to contribute to Apache Arrow Go

We utilize Conventional Commits for our commit messages. This helps maintain the semantic versioning of this module.

Please use the following commit types: build, chore, ci, docs, feat, fix, perf, refactor, revert, style, test.

For PRs with changes entirely within a single sub-package, please use a scope that references that package such as arrow/flight or parquet/pqarrow. For more general PRs, a top level scope should be sufficient.

For example:

fix(arrow/cdata): handle empty structs in C data interface

ci: update CI environment

feat(parquet): support new encoding type

Did you find a bug?

The Arrow project uses GitHub as a bug tracker. To report a bug, sign in to your GitHub account, navigate to GitHub issues and click on New issue .

To be assigned to an issue, add a comment "take" to that issue.

Before you create a new bug entry, we recommend you first search among existing Arrow issues in GitHub.

Did you write a patch that fixes a bug or brings an improvement?

If there is a corresponding issue for your patch, please make sure to reference the issue in your PR description.

Do you want to propose a significant new feature or an important refactoring?

We ask that all discussions about major changes in the codebase happen publicly on the arrow-dev mailing-list.

Do you have questions about the source code, the build procedure or the development process?

You can also ask on the mailing-list, see above.
