How Can I Contribute?

Code of Conduct

This project and everyone participating in it is governed by the Code of Conduct. By participating, you are expected to uphold this code.

I just have a question!

Please ask the questions in the discussions page.

What should I know before I get started?

Tools and Packages

This project is based on Angular and uses the SBB Angular Library.

For getting a development environment up and running you either need to have Node installed locally or you can use the provided docker-compose.yml file. The Angular frontend depends on the backed in the netzgrafik-editor-backend, so you also need to start the backend components.

Design Decisions

Have a look at DATA_MODEL.md

Found an Issue?

If you find a bug in the source code or a mistake in the documentation, you can help us by submitting an issue to our GitHub Repository. Including an issue reproduction (via StackBlitz, JsBin, Plunkr, etc.) is the absolute best way to help the team quickly diagnose the problem. Screenshots are also helpful.

You can help the team even more and submit a Pull Request with a fix.

Want a Feature?

You can request a new feature by submitting an issue to our GitHub Repository. If you would like to implement a new feature, please submit an issue with a proposal for your work first, to be sure that we can use it. Please consider what kind of change it is:

  • For a Major Feature, first open an issue and outline your proposal so that it can be discussed. This will also allow us to better coordinate our efforts, prevent duplication of work, and help you to craft the change so that it is successfully accepted into the project.
  • Small Features can be crafted and directly submitted as a Pull Request.

Submitting an Issue

If your issue appears to be a bug, and hasn't been reported, open a new issue. Providing the following information will increase the chances of your issue being dealt with quickly:

  • Overview of the Issue - if an error is being thrown a non-minified stack trace helps
  • Toolchain and Environment Details - which versions of libraries, toolchain, platform etc
  • Motivation for or Use Case - explain what are you trying to do and why the current behavior is a bug for you
  • Browsers and Operating System - is this a problem with all browsers?
  • Reproduce the Error - provide a live example (using StackBlitz or similar) or a unambiguous set of steps
  • Screenshots - myybe screenshots can help the team triage issues far more quickly than a text description.
  • Related Issues - has a similar issue been reported before?
  • Suggest a Fix - if you can't fix the bug yourself, perhaps you can point to what might be causing the problem (line of code or commit)

You can file new issues by providing the above information here.

Submitting a Pull Request (PR)

Before you submit your Pull Request (PR) consider the following guidelines:

  • Make your changes in a new git branch:

    git checkout -b my-fix-branch main

  • Create your patch, including appropriate test cases.

  • Follow our Coding Rules.

  • Test your changes with our supported browsers and screen readers.

  • Run tests and ensure that all tests pass.

  • Commit your changes using a descriptive commit message that follows our commit message conventions. Adherence to these conventions is necessary because release notes are automatically generated from these messages.

    git commit -a

    Note: the optional commit -a command line option will automatically "add" and "rm" edited files.

  • Push your branch to GitHub:

    git push my-fork my-fix-branch

  • In GitHub, send a pull request to sbb-your-project:main. The PR title and message should as well conform to the commit message conventions.

Coding Rules

To ensure consistency throughout the source code, keep these rules in mind as you are working:

  • All features or bug fixes must be tested by one or more specs (unit-tests).
  • All public API methods must be documented.
  • Also see CODING_STANDARDS

Commit Message Guidelines

This project uses Conventional Commits to generate the changelog. As an example, please refer to: https://github.com/sbb-design-systems/sbb-angular

Your First Code Contribution

Unsure where to begin contributing to Atom? You can start by looking through these beginner and help-wanted issues:

  • [Beginner issues][beginner] - issues which should only require a few lines of code, and a test or two.
  • [Help wanted issues][help-wanted] - issues which should be a bit more involved than beginner issues.
