Please be aware that an issue tracker is not the best place to ask for support. An issue tracker is used to track issues (bugs or feature requests). Instead, please use stackoverflow.com and use the tag greenrobot-eventbus for your question. If you want professional support, you can contact the main author and maintainer Markus Junginger via Google+.
Examples for support questions better asked elsewhere:
- Asking how something works
- Asking how to use EventBus in a specific scenario
- Your app crashes/misbehaves and you are not sure why
A couple of simple steps can save time for everyone.
Check before reporting:
- It's not a support inquiry
- You have read the docs
- You searched the web and stackoverflow
- You searched existing issues to avoid duplicates
Reporting bugs:
- Please investigate if is the bug is really caused by the library. Isolate the issue: what's the minimal code to reproduce the bug?
- Bonus steps to gain extra karma points: once you isolated and identified the issue, you can prepare an push request. Submit an unit test causing the bug, and ideally a fix for the bug.
Requesting features:
- Ask yourself: is the feature useful for a majority users? One of our major goals is to keep the API simple and concise. We do not want to cover all possible use cases, but those that make 80% of users happy.
Pull requests (and issue) may queue up up a bit. Usually, pull requests and issues are checked when new releases are planned.
For bigger pull requests, it's a good idea to check with the maintainer upfront about the idea and the implementation outline.
It's your contributions and feedback that makes maintaining this library fun.
