# Contributing

We welcome all input and contributions to BundleWrap. If you've never done this sort of thing before, maybe check out [contribution-guide.org](http://www.contribution-guide.org). But don't be afraid to make mistakes, nobody expects your first contribution to be perfect. We'll gladly help you out.

<br>

## Submitting bug reports

Please use the [GitHub issue tracker](https://github.com/bundlewrap/bundlewrap/issues) and take a few minutes to look for existing reports of the same problem (open or closed!).

<div class="alert alert-danger">If you've found a security issue or are not at all sure, just contact <a href="mailto:trehn@bundlewrap.org">trehn@bundlewrap.org</a>.</div>

<br>

## Contributing code

<div class="alert alert-info">Before working on new features, try reaching out to one of the core authors first. We are very concerned with keeping BundleWrap lean and not introducing bloat.</div>

Here are the steps:

1. Write your code. Awesome!
2. If you haven't already done so, please consider writing tests. Otherwise, someone else will have to do it for you.
3. Same goes for documentation.
4. Set up a [virtualenv](http://virtualenv.readthedocs.org/en/latest/) and run `pip install -r requirements.txt`.
5. Make sure you can connect to your localhost via `ssh` without using a password and that you are able to run `sudo`.
6. Run `py.test tests/`.
7. Review and sign the Copyright Assignment Agreement (CAA) by adding your name and email to the `AUTHORS` file. (This step can be skipped if your contribution is too small to be considered intellectual property, e.g. spelling fixes)
8. Open a pull request on [GitHub](https://github.com/bundlewrap/bundlewrap).
9. Feel great. Thank you.

<br>

## Contributing documentation

The process is essentially the same as detailed above for code contributions. You will find the docs in `docs/content/` and can preview them using `cd docs && mkdocs serve`.

<br>

## Help

If at any point you need help or are not sure what to do, open a [discussion on GitHub](https://github.com/bundlewrap/bundlewrap/discussions).

<br>

## Release

If you have been given the required access, to release a new version, do the following:

* Check out the current `main` branch
* Bump the version number in `setup.py` and `bundlewrap/__init__.py`, observing semantic versioning
* Add an entry to `CHANGELOG.md`, taking care to list all changes relevant to users and to order them with the most important changes on top (generally: new features, changes/improvements, bug fixes)
* Commit these changes into a new commit titled `release X.Y.Z`, replacing X.Y.Z with the new version
* Push to GitHub
* Wait for GitHub Actions to successfully build (use your best judgment for DeepSource failures, some are very acceptable; in case of other failures, rebase fixes below the release commit)
* Tag the release commit with the version number and push the tag
* Create a [new release on GitHub](https://github.com/bundlewrap/bundlewrap/releases/new) referencing the tag, using the version number as the title and the content from the `CHANGELOG.md` entry as the description
* Run `rm -rf build dist`, just in case
* Run `python -m build`
* Run `twine upload dist/*`
* Run `mkdocs gh-deploy` in the `docs/` directory
* Rejoice with glee!
