This assumes the following: + +* GitHub issues are not used for questions, investigations, root cause + analysis, discussions of potential issues, etc (as defined by this team) +* Enough information is provided by the reporter for maintainers to work with + +The team receives many questions through various venues every single +day. Frequently, these questions do not include the necessary details +the team needs to begin useful work. GitHub issues can very quickly +turn into a something impossible to navigate and make sense +of. Because of this, questions, investigations, root cause analysis, +and discussions of potential features are all considered to be +[mailing list][rmq-users] material. If you are unsure where to begin, +the [RabbitMQ users mailing list][rmq-users] is the right place. + +Getting all the details necessary to reproduce an issue, make a +conclusion or even form a hypothesis about what's happening can take a +fair amount of time. Please help others help you by providing a way to +reproduce the behavior you're observing, or at least sharing as much +relevant information as possible on the [RabbitMQ users mailing +list][rmq-users]. + +Please provide versions of the software used: + + * RabbitMQ server + * Erlang + * Operating system version (and distribution, if applicable) + * All client libraries used + * RabbitMQ plugins (if applicable) + +The following information greatly helps in investigating and reproducing issues: + + * RabbitMQ server logs + * A code example or terminal transcript that can be used to reproduce + * Full exception stack traces (a single line message is not enough!) + * `rabbitmqctl report` and `rabbitmqctl environment` output + * Other relevant details about the environment and workload, e.g. a traffic capture + * Feel free to edit out hostnames and other potentially sensitive information. + +To make collecting much of this and other environment information, use +the [`rabbitmq-collect-env`][rmq-collect-env] script. It will produce an archive with +server logs, operating system logs, output of certain diagnostics commands and so on. +Please note that **no effort is made to scrub any information that may be sensitive**. + +### Pull Requests + +RabbitMQ projects use pull requests to discuss, collaborate on and accept code contributions. +Pull requests is the primary place of discussing code changes. + +Here's the recommended workflow: + + * [Fork the repository][github-fork] or repositories you plan on contributing to. If multiple + repositories are involved in addressing the same issue, please use the same branch name + in each repository + * Create a branch with a descriptive name in the relevant repositories + * Make your changes, run tests (usually with `make tests`), commit with a + [descriptive message][git-commit-msgs], push to your fork + * Submit pull requests with an explanation what has been changed and **why** + * Submit a filled out and signed [Contributor Agreement][ca-agreement] if needed (see below) + * Be patient. We will get to your pull request eventually + +If what you are going to work on is a substantial change, please first +ask the core team for their opinion on the [RabbitMQ users mailing list][rmq-users]. + +## Running Tests + + make tests + +## Code of Conduct + +See [CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md](./CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md). + +## Contributor Agreement + +If you want to contribute a non-trivial change, please submit a signed +copy of our [Contributor Agreement][ca-agreement] around the time you +submit your pull request. This will make it much easier (in some +cases, possible) for the RabbitMQ team at Pivotal to merge your +contribution. + +## Where to Ask Questions + +If something isn't clear, feel free to ask on our [mailing list][rmq-users]. + +[rmq-collect-env]: https://github.com/rabbitmq/support-tools/blob/master/scripts/rabbitmq-collect-env +[git-commit-msgs]: https://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/ +[rmq-users]: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/rabbitmq-users +[ca-agreement]: https://cla.pivotal.io/sign/rabbitmq +[github-fork]: https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/ |
