|
## Getting help
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Community discussion, questions, and informal bug reporting is done on the
|
||
|
|
[discuss.CodeMirror forum](http://discuss.codemirror.net).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Submitting bug reports
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The preferred way to report bugs is to use the
|
||
|
|
[GitHub issue tracker](http://github.com/codemirror/CodeMirror/issues). Before
|
||
|
|
reporting a bug, read these pointers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Note:** The issue tracker is for *bugs*, not requests for help. Questions
|
||
|
|
should be asked on the
|
||
|
|
[discuss.CodeMirror forum](http://discuss.codemirror.net) instead.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Reporting bugs effectively
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- CodeMirror is maintained by volunteers. They don't owe you anything, so be
|
||
|
|
polite. Reports with an indignant or belligerent tone tend to be moved to the
|
||
|
|
bottom of the pile.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Include information about **the browser in which the problem occurred**. Even
|
||
|
|
if you tested several browsers, and the problem occurred in all of them,
|
||
|
|
mention this fact in the bug report. Also include browser version numbers and
|
||
|
|
the operating system that you're on.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Mention which release of CodeMirror you're using. Preferably, try also with
|
||
|
|
the current development snapshot, to ensure the problem has not already been
|
||
|
|
fixed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Mention very precisely what went wrong. "X is broken" is not a good bug
|
||
|
|
report. What did you expect to happen? What happened instead? Describe the
|
||
|
|
exact steps a maintainer has to take to make the problem occur. We can not
|
||
|
|
fix something that we can not observe.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- If the problem can not be reproduced in any of the demos included in the
|
||
|
|
CodeMirror distribution, please provide an HTML document that demonstrates
|
||
|
|
the problem. The best way to do this is to go to
|
||
|
|
[jsbin.com](http://jsbin.com/ihunin/edit), enter it there, press save, and
|
||
|
|
include the resulting link in your bug report.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Contributing code
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that we are not accepting any new addons or modes into the main
|
||
|
|
distribution. If you've written such a module, please distribute it as
|
||
|
|
a separate NPM package.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Make sure you have a [GitHub Account](https://github.com/signup/free)
|
||
|
|
- Fork [CodeMirror](https://github.com/codemirror/CodeMirror/)
|
||
|
|
([how to fork a repo](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo))
|
||
|
|
- Make your changes
|
||
|
|
- If your changes are easy to test or likely to regress, add tests.
|
||
|
|
Tests for the core go into `test/test.js`, some modes have their own
|
||
|
|
test suite under `mode/XXX/test.js`. Feel free to add new test
|
||
|
|
suites to modes that don't have one yet (be sure to link the new
|
||
|
|
tests into `test/index.html`).
|
||
|
|
- Follow the general code style of the rest of the project (see
|
||
|
|
below). Run `bin/lint` to verify that the linter is happy.
|
||
|
|
- Make sure all tests pass. Visit `test/index.html` in your browser to
|
||
|
|
run them.
|
||
|
|
- Submit a pull request
|
||
|
|
([how to create a pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo)).
|
||
|
|
Don't put more than one feature/fix in a single pull request.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By contributing code to CodeMirror you
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- agree to license the contributed code under CodeMirror's [MIT
|
||
|
|
license](https://codemirror.net/LICENSE).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- confirm that you have the right to contribute and license the code
|
||
|
|
in question. (Either you hold all rights on the code, or the rights
|
||
|
|
holder has explicitly granted the right to use it like this,
|
||
|
|
through a compatible open source license or through a direct
|
||
|
|
agreement with you.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Coding standards
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- 2 spaces per indentation level, no tabs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Note that the linter (`bin/lint`) which is run after each commit
|
||
|
|
complains about unused variables and functions. Prefix their names
|
||
|
|
with an underscore to muffle it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- CodeMirror does *not* follow JSHint or JSLint prescribed style.
|
||
|
|
Patches that try to 'fix' code to pass one of these linters will be
|
||
|
|
unceremoniously discarded.
