They make the code freely available in the hope that it will be of use to other developers. It would be -extremely unfair for them to suffer abuse or anger for their hard work. - -Please be considerate towards maintainers when raising issues or presenting pull requests. Let's show the -world that developers are civilized and selfless people. - -It's the duty of the maintainer to ensure that all submissions to the project are of sufficient -quality to benefit the project. Many developers have different skillsets, strengths, and weaknesses. Respect the maintainer's decision, and do not be upset or abusive if your submission is not used. - -## Viability - -When requesting or submitting new features, first consider whether it might be useful to others. Open -source projects are used by many developers, who may have entirely different needs to your own. Think about -whether or not your feature is likely to be used by other users of the project. - -## Procedure - -Before filing an issue: - -- Attempt to replicate the problem, to ensure that it wasn't a coincidental incident. -- Check to make sure your feature suggestion isn't already present within the project. -- Check the pull requests tab to ensure that the bug doesn't have a fix in progress. -- Check the pull requests tab to ensure that the feature isn't already in progress. - -Before submitting a pull request: - -- Check the codebase to ensure that your feature doesn't already exist. -- Check the pull requests to ensure that another person hasn't already submitted the feature or fix. - -## Requirements - -If the project maintainer has any additional requirements, you will find them listed here. - -- **[PSR-2 Coding Standard](https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/blob/master/accepted/PSR-2-coding-style-guide.md)** - The easiest way to apply the conventions is to install [PHP Code Sniffer](https://pear.php.net/package/PHP_CodeSniffer). - -- **Add tests!** - Your patch won't be accepted if it doesn't have tests. - -- **Document any change in behaviour** - Make sure the `README.md` and any other relevant documentation are kept up-to-date. - -- **Consider our release cycle** - We try to follow [SemVer v2.0.0](https://semver.org/). Randomly breaking public APIs is not an option. - -- **One pull request per feature** - If you want to do more than one thing, send multiple pull requests. - -- **Send coherent history** - Make sure each individual commit in your pull request is meaningful. If you had to make multiple intermediate commits while developing, please [squash them](https://www.git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Rewriting-History#Changing-Multiple-Commit-Messages) before submitting. - -**Happy coding**!
