Contribute to scaleway-cli

scaleway-cli is Apache 2.0 licensed and accepts contributions via GitHub. This document will cover how to contribute to the project and report issues.

Topics

Reporting security issues

Please refer to our security policy.

Reporting issues

A great way to contribute to the project is to send a detailed report when you encounter a bug. We always appreciate a well-written, thorough bug report, and will thank you for it! Before opening a new issue, we appreciate you reviewing open issues to see if there are any similar requests. If there is a match, thumbs up the issue with a 👍 and leave a comment if you have additional information.

When reporting an issue, please include information displayed by the scw version command.

Suggesting a feature

When requesting a feature, some of the questions we want to answer are:

  • What value does this feature bring to end users?
  • How urgent is the need (nice to have feature or need to have)?
  • Does this align with the goals of scaleway-cli?

Contributing code

Before contributing to the code, make sure you have read about the continuous code deployment process we are using on this repo.

Submit code

To submit code:

  • Create a fork of the project
  • Create a topic branch from where you want to base your work (usually master)
  • Add tests to cover contributed code
  • Push your commit(s) to your topic branch on your fork
  • Open a pull request against scaleway-cli master branch that follows PR guidelines

The maintainers of scaleway-cli use a "Let's Get This Merged" (LGTM) message in the pull request to note that the commits are ready to merge. After one or more maintainer states LGTM, we will merge. If you have questions or comments on your code, feel free to correct these in your branch through new commits.

Pull Request Guidelines

The goal of the following guidelines is to have Pull Requests (PRs) that are fairly easy to review and comprehend, and code that is easy to maintain in the future.

  • Pull Request title should respect conventional commits specifications and be clear on what is being changed. The scope is the namespace on which the changes are made or core for changes which concern the whole CLI. Examples:
    • A fix for scw init will be titled fix(init): ...
    • A fix for the argument parser will be titled fix(core): ...
    • A new instance feature (in scw instance ...) will be title feat(instance): ...
  • Keep it readable for human reviewers and prefer a subset of functionality (code) with tests and documentation over delivering them separately
  • Don't forget commenting code to help reviewers understand and to keep our Go Report Card at A+
  • Notify Work In Progress PRs by prefixing the title with [WIP]
  • Please, keep us updated. We will try our best to merge your PR, but please notice that PRs may be closed after 30 days of inactivity.

Your pull request should be rebased against the master branch.

Keep in mind only the pull request title will be used as commit message as we stash all commits on merge.

Community guidelines

See CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md.

Thank you for reading through all of this, if you have any question feel free to reach us!

Developer documentation

When to use dash vs underscore

We SHOULD use dash "-" for:

  • command namespaces, resource, verb
  • argument names
  • key names in the human formatted results
  • UUID

We SHOULD use underscore "_" for:

  • response value results, except UUID
  • argument values

Example:

> scw my-namespace my-resource get id=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
id               xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
some-key         some_value
other-key        other_value

Commands validation

Some validation is done internally on Scaleway's side: see scaleway-sdk-go/docs/CONTINUOUS_CODE_DEPLOYMENT.md This is true for:

  • command namespaces, resource, verb

The rest is manually checked for now.
