Contributing Guide

Contributions are welcome and are greatly appreciated! Every little bit helps, and credit will always be given.

Pull Request Guidelines

Before you submit a pull request from your forked repo, please check that it meets the following guidelines:

  1. Create a feature branch
  2. When the feature is done, please run (./gradlew check) to ensure the code respects our style guidelines.
  3. If the pull request adds functionality, edit the sample app to demonstrate the new functionality.
  4. If the pull request fixes a bug, create a new issue with an explanation including what the bug was and how to reproduce it, then reference the issue in PR description.
  5. Create PR when you're done.

DO and DON'Ts

  • DO include tests when adding new features. When fixing bugs, start with adding a test that highlights how the current behavior is broken.
  • DO keep the discussions focused. When a new or related topic comes up it's often better to create new issue than to side track the discussion.
  • DO submit all code changes via pull requests (PRs) rather than through a direct commit. PRs will be reviewed and potentially merged by the repo maintainers after a peer review that includes at least one maintainer.
  • DO give PRs short-but-descriptive names (e.g. "Improve code coverage for xpto by 10%", not "Fix #23")
  • DO tag any users that should know about and/or review the change.
  • DO ensure each commit successfully builds.
  • DO run check validator (./gradlew check) when submitting PRs.
  • DO fix merge conflicts using a merge commit in public branches. Prefer git rebase to get new commits from develop to local feature.
  • DO NOT submit "work in progress" PRs. A PR should only be submitted when it is considered ready for review and subsequent merging by the contributor.
  • DO NOT mix independent, unrelated changes in one PR. Separate unrelated fixes into separate PRs.
  • DO NOT send PRs for style changes.
  • DO NOT surprise us with big pull requests. Instead, file an issue and start a discussion so we can agree on a direction before you invest a large amount of time.
  • DO NOT commit code that you didn't write. If you find code that you think is a good fit to add to LucidAnimations, file an issue and start a discussion before proceeding.
  • DO NOT submit PRs that alter licensing related files or headers. If you believe there's a problem with them, file an issue and we'll be happy to discuss it.
