Contributing to our Spring Boot Starter

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 configuration
  • Submitting a fix
  • Proposing new features
  • Becoming a maintainer

We Develop with GitHub

We use GitHub to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.

We Use CircleCI, So All Code Changes Happen Through Pull Requests

Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the codebase (we use CircleCI). We actively welcome your pull requests:

  1. Fork the repo and create your branch from main.
  2. If you've added code that should be tested, add tests.
  3. If you've changed APIs, update the documentation.
  4. Ensure the tests pass.
  5. Make sure your code and commit lints.
  6. Issue that pull request!

Any contributions you make will be under the MIT License

In short, when you submit code changes, your submissions are understood to be under the same MIT License 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.
  • 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.

To make your life easier there is also a handy template available so feel free to use it.
