License

importunate is proudly licenced under the MIT license, and so are all contributions. Please see the LICENSE file in this directory for more details.

Pull Requests

To make changes to importunate, 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.

Issue Tracker

You can find the issue tracker on GitHub. If you've found a problem with importunate, please open an issue there.

Development workflow

Check out the README.md under the examples/ folder for details on the development process.

Examples

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

Types of Contributions

Report Bugs

Report bugs at https://github.com/wainwrightmark/importunate/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.

Fix Bug

Look through the GitHub issues for bugs. Anything tagged with "bug" is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Implement Features

Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "feature" is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Write Documentation

importunate could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official importunate docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts, articles, and such.

Submit Feedback

The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/wainwrightmark/importunate/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 :)

Get Started!

Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up importunate for local development.

  1. Fork the importunate repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally:

    $ git clone [email protected]:your_name_here/importunate.git

  3. Create a branch for local development:

    $ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature

    Now you can make your changes locally.

  4. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass the tests:

    $ cargo test

  5. 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

  6. 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

  7. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.

Pull Request Guidelines

Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:

  1. The pull request should include tests.
  2. 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.

Deploying

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.
