- This project is governed by the Orion Code of Conduct. By participating, you are agreeing to uphold this code. Please report unacceptable behavior.
- Ensure the bug is not already reported by searching on GitHub under Issues.
- If you are unable to find an open issue addressing the problem, open a new one. Be sure to include a title and clear description, as much relevant information as possible, and a code sample or an executable test case demonstrating the unexpected behavior.
- Describe the exact steps to reproduce the problem in as many details as possible. When listing steps, don't just say what you did, but explain how you did it. For example, the exact commands used in the terminal to start Orion.
- Provide specific examples to demonstrate the steps. Include links to files or GitHub projects, or copy/pasteable snippets, which you use in those examples. If you're providing snippets in the issue, use Markdown code blocks.
- Describe the behavior you observed after following the steps and explain the problem with that behavior.
- Explain the behavior you expected instead and why.
- Can you reliably reproduce the issue? If not, provide details about how often the problem happens and under which conditions it normally happens.
- Search to see if the enhancement has already been suggested. If it has, add a comment to the existing issue instead of opening a new one.
Enhancement suggestions are tracked as GitHub issues. Create an issue on and provide the following information:
- Use a clear and descriptive title for the issue to identify the suggestion.
- Provide a step-by-step description of the suggested enhancement in as much detail as possible.
- Describe the current behavior and explain the behavior you expect instead and why.
- Explain why this enhancement would be useful to other users.
- Specify the name and version of the OS you're using.
- Specify the name and version of any relevant packages - eg Geth.
There are a number of automated checks:
- unit tests
- integration tests
- acceptance tests
- code formatting
If these checks pass, pull requests will be reviewed by the project team against criteria including:
- purpose - is this change useful
- test coverage - are there unit/integration/acceptance tests demonstrating the change is effective
- style
- code consistency - naming, comments, design
- changes that are solely formatting are likely to be rejected
Always write a clear log message for your commits. One-line messages are fine for small changes, but bigger changes should contain more detail.
- Use Google code style
- Use spotless to ensure consistency of formatting - run the gradle task
spotlessApply. Ensure this tasks is run before submitting a pull request, since compliance is checked automatically.
- Use Markdown
