The first version of tutorial is done. See https://github.com/chinesedfan/You-Dont-Know-Axios. Any help for improving the document is appreciated. |
Hey there! I'm curious about who maintains this project currently, and if the team would like help. I saw some talk over in this somewhat hostilely titled issue #1965 and see on the people page of the repo @emilyemorehouse @mzabriskie @nickuraltsev @rubennorte listed as maintainers. I wanted to possibly open up a dialogue with the maintainers, and point ya'll to the nodejs/package-maintenance working group, set up specifically to help aid packages of importance to the ecosystem, and support the lovely people who create them. Perhaps @wesleytodd or @mhdawson can give a little more color about that particular group if they so desire. Perhaps you're already aware of the group, or have interacted with them in the past. Personally I don't think I have the bandwidth to jump in currently, but I am a member of the Triage initiative that we have kickstarted over at expressjs/discussions#92 which has been quite successful so far. My goal here is to ask: What do you need? Do you want help from other projects?From the looks of things, the project has lots of good information for collaborators and has a lot of activity happening, so you are much better off than many projects out there. Like Express (and specifically multer) I understand axios is a project that a lot of newer developers or people new to JS interact with, and combined with it's popularity, that means lots of issues often from folks looking for basic support (which seems to be the point of this issue). I'd suggest, if it's not already in place, creating an official Triage effort in order to empower folks who specifically want to contribute by answering questions, categorizing issues, reproducing bugs, etc. The story from @chinesedfan is quite a powerful one (and encapsulates the sort of positive effects we've started to see over at Express as well):
Possible Next StepsIf this is something that interests the team, I think the nodejs/package-maintenance would be willing to talk about what they've learned so far from Express Triage, as well as other ways to help support the maintainers of this project. (Although I shouldn't speak for them, I'm not a member but that is my interpretation of their mission). |
While I don't have a ton of time to get involved on a new project, I can say that the triage effort and the plans from the Package Maintenance group have been super helpful for Express. If you all are interested, we had a plan to use Express and MQTT as pilot projects, maybe we could add Axios to that list. If maintainers from here want to reach out to me or the PM group, please go ahead and open an issue on the repo linked above by @jonchurch. |
@jasonsaayman can we assume things are ok and that this issue may be closed ( Package Maintenance Group were monitoring the situation but it looks like it is resolved now ) |
@ghinks Yeah I think we should be ok :) thanks for the help! |
Before axios official docs repository was ready, I'd like keep this issue pinned to guide users to chinesedfan/You-Dont-Know-Axios. |
Agreed 😄 |
Background
Every week axios receives lots of new issues, and most of them are problems about how to get the expected response. Some of them are simple or duplicated, some are similar but with tricky differences, and some are complex without enough and clear information.
Possible actions
It may be a little rude for users seeking for help. But please understand the differences between Github issues and stackoverflow questions. Issue readers are same developers like you. The best debugger is yourself, because only you know everything about the problem. You may not familiar with axios codes, but it is simple to read and easy to get familiar with.
About pulls
By the way, call help for more reviewers to handle the accumulated pull requests. Anyone in the community can leave comments for them. The main strategy is conservative and do not introduce bugs and too much breaking changes.
Everything above is my personal thoughts, which doesn't stand for axios official decisions. Forgive my non-native English, and I just wish this project can be better with the community's help.
