You want to help contribute? Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to look at the guidelines for this repo. Here's what you need to know!
cargo-rx is proudly licenced under the MIT license, and so are all
contributions. Please see the LICENSE
file in this directory for more details.
To make changes to cargo-rx, please send in pull requests on GitHub to
the main
branch. I'll review them and either merge or request changes. GitHub Actions
tests everything as well, so you may get feedback from it too.
If you make additions or other changes to a pull request, feel free to either amend previous commits or only add new ones, however you prefer. I may ask you to squash your commits before merging, depending.
You can find the issue tracker on GitHub. If you've found a problem with cargo-rx, please open an issue there.
Check out the README.md
under the examples/ folder for details
on the development process.
Do you want to help show off some ways for how the library works? Feel free to work on an example and open up a PR!
To run the tests:
$ cargo test
Report bugs at https://github.com/rnag/cargo-rx/issues.
If you are reporting a bug, please include:
- Your operating system name and version.
- Any details about your local setup that might be helpful in troubleshooting.
- Detailed steps to reproduce the bug.
Look through the GitHub issues for bugs. Anything tagged with "bug" is open to whoever wants to implement it.
Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "feature" is open to whoever wants to implement it.
cargo-rx could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official cargo-rx docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts, articles, and such.
The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/rnag/cargo-rx/issues.
If you are proposing a feature:
- Explain in detail how it would work.
- Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.
- Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions are welcome :)
Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up cargo-rx
for local development.
-
Fork the
cargo-rx
repo on GitHub. -
Clone your fork locally:
$ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/cargo-rx.git
-
Create a branch for local development:
$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Now you can make your changes locally.
-
When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass the tests:
$ cargo test
-
If necessary, create a new Rust script under the
examples/
folder which demonstrates usage of the new feature.Then, run the new example script to confirm that it works as intended:
$ cargo run --example my_awesome_example
-
Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:
$ git add . $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes." $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
-
Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:
- The pull request should include tests.
- If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the feature to the list in README.md.
A reminder for the maintainers on how to deploy.
Make sure all your changes are committed (including an entry in CHANGELOG.md
).
First-time only: to update git push
to push both the commits and tags simultaneously, run this command
as mentioned in this post:
$ git config --global push.followTags true
Then run:
$ cargo bump patch --git-tag # possible: major / minor / patch
$ git push
GitHub Actions will then deploy to crates.io if tests pass,
once code is merged to the main
branch.
