We are open to, and grateful for, any contributions made by the community. By contributing to Paladin Cloud, you agree to abide by the code of conduct.
Before opening an issue, please search the issue tracker to make sure your issue hasn't already been reported.
We use the issue tracker to keep track of bugs and improvements, its examples, and the documentation. We encourage you to open issues to discuss improvements, architecture, theory, internal implementation, etc. If a topic has been discussed before, we will ask you to join the previous discussion.
We follow semantic versioning. We release patch versions for bugfixes, minor versions for new features or non-essential changes, and major versions for any breaking changes.
Submit all changes directly to the master branch. We don’t use separate branches for development. We do our best to keep master in good shape, with all tests passing.
Code that lands in master must be compatible with the latest stable release. It may contain additional features, but no breaking changes. We should be able to release a new minor version from the tip of master at any time.
Visit the issue tracker to find a list of open issues that need attention.
For non-trivial changes, please open an issue with a proposal for a new feature or refactoring before starting on the work. We don't want you to waste your efforts on a pull request that we won't want to accept.
On the other hand, sometimes the best way to start a conversation is to send a pull request. Use your best judgement!
In general, the contribution workflow looks like this:
- Open a new issue in the Issue tracker.
- Fork the repo.
- Create a new feature branch based off the
master
branch. - Make sure to add/update tests.
- Submit a pull request, referencing any issues it addresses.
Please try to keep your pull request focused in scope and avoid including unrelated commits. We follow below guidelines for pull requests and commits:
- We use conventional commits and pull requests.

- Use the same conventions for pull requests as well.
- Rebase and test the code against the primary branch to be sure it works with the latest code
After you have submitted your pull request, we'll try to get back to you as soon as possible. We may suggest some changes or improvements.
Thank you for contributing!
