Contributing to newrelic-istio-adapter

Welcome! We gladly accept contributions from the community.

If you wish to contribute code and you have not signed our Individual Contributor License Agreement or our Corporate Contributor License Agreement, please do so in order to contribute.

How to contribute

We use GitHub Pull Requests to incorporate code changes from external contributors. Typical contribution flow steps are:

  • Sign the Individual Contributor License Agreement or our Corporate Contributor License Agreement.
  • Fork the newrelic-istio-adapter repository.
  • Clone the forked repository locally and configure the upstream repository.
  • Open an Issue describing what you propose to do (unless the change is so trivial that an issue is not needed). Issues should be submitted with a clear description, steps to reproduce the issue, Istio version used, and Kubernetes version.
  • Once you know which steps to take in your intended contribution, make changes in a topic branch and commit. (Don't forget to add or modify tests!).
  • Consult the style guide and ensure your changes adhere to the project style.
  • Fetch changes from upstream, rebase with master and resolve any merge conflicts so that your topic branch is up-to-date.
  • Build and test the project locally. (See DEVELOPMENT.md for more details.)
  • Push all commits to the topic branch in your forked repository.
  • Submit a Pull Request to merge topic branch commits to upstream master. Be sure to reference your Issue when creating the PR unless it is a trivial change.

If this process sounds unfamiliar, have a look at the excellent overview of collaboration via Pull Requests on GitHub for more information.
