Contributing to Ember Charts

Looking to contribute something to Ember Charts? Here's how you can help.

Please take a moment to review this document in order to make the contribution process easy and effective for everyone involved.

Following these guidelines helps to communicate that you respect the time of the developers managing and developing this open source project. In return, they should reciprocate that respect in addressing your issue or assessing patches and features.

Using the issue tracker

The issue tracker is the preferred channel for bug reports, feature requests and submitting pull requests, but please respect the following restrictions:

• Please do not use the issue tracker for personal support requests. Stack Overflow (ember-charts tag) is a better place to get help.

• Please do not derail or troll issues. Keep the discussion on topic and respect the opinions of others.

Bug reports

A bug is a demonstrable problem that is caused by the code in the repository. Good bug reports are extremely helpful, so thanks!

Guidelines for bug reports:

1. Use the GitHub issue search — check if the issue has already been reported.

2. Check if the issue has been fixed — try to reproduce it using the latest master or development branch in the repository.

3. Isolate the problem — ideally create a reduced test case and a live example. The starter kit JS Bin on the README page is a helpful template.

Feature requests

Feature requests are welcome. But take a moment to find out whether your idea fits with the scope and aims of the project. It's up to you to make a strong case to convince the project's developers of the merits of this feature. Please provide as much detail and context as possible.

Writing Code in Ember Charts

Ember-charts is written in CoffeeScript and compiled into JavaScript using Grunt. Contributing to ember-charts requires that you have grunt and NPM (for pulling in dependencies) locally installed.

The src folder contains all the source code for the ember-charts project itself. The app folder contains the sample app and documentation, and should be updated whenever changes will add functionality, modify or remove existing functionality, or change public APIs. The dist folder contains the compiled ember-charts code and should not be directly modified but instead generated using grunt dist.

Pull requests

Good pull requests—patches, improvements, new features—are a fantastic help. They should remain focused in scope and avoid containing unrelated commits.

Please ask first before embarking on any significant pull request (e.g. implementing features, refactoring code, porting to a different language), otherwise you risk spending a lot of time working on something that the project's developers might not want to merge into the project.

For now, pull requests aren't required to have tests. Once we've established a testing infrastructure, pull requests that introduce new functionality should come with tests for that functionality.

Adhering to the following process is the best way to get your work included in the project:

1. Fork the project, clone your fork, and configure the remotes:

bash # Clone your fork of the repo into the current directory git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/ember-charts.git # Navigate to the newly cloned directory cd ember-charts # Assign the original repo to a remote called "upstream" git remote add upstream https://github.com/Addepar/ember-charts.git

1. If you cloned a while ago, get the latest changes from upstream:

bash git checkout master git pull upstream master

1. Create a new topic branch (off the main project development branch) to contain your feature, change, or fix:

bash git checkout -b <topic-branch-name>

1. Before committing changes, make sure to compile modified CoffeeScript files.

bash grunt dist

1. Commit your changes in logical chunks. Please adhere to these git commit message guidelines or your code is unlikely be merged into the main project. Use Git's interactive rebase feature to tidy up your commits before making them public.

2. Locally merge (or rebase) the upstream development branch into your topic branch:

bash git pull [--rebase] upstream master

1. Push your topic branch up to your fork:

bash git push origin <topic-branch-name>

1. Open a Pull Request with a clear title and description against the master branch.

IMPORTANT: By submitting a patch, you agree to allow the project owners to license your work under the terms of the BSD License.

Running tests

Syntax:

• Two spaces, no tabs.
• No trailing whitespace. Blank lines should not have any space.
• a = b and not a=b.
• Follow the conventions you see used in the source already.
