Contributing Guidelines

SYNDATA is an open source project. We welcome contributions via pull requests as well as questions, feature requests, or bug reports via issues. Contact our team at andre@llnl.gov with any questions. Please also refer to our code of conduct.

If you aren't a developer at LLNL, you won't have permission to push new branches to the repository. First, you should create a fork. This will create your copy of the SYNDATA repository and ensure you can push your changes up to GitHub and create PRs.

  • Create your branches off the repo:main branch.
  • Clearly name your branches, commits, and PRs as this will help us manage queued work in a timely manner.
  • Articulate your commit messages in the imperative.
  • Commit your work in logically organized commits, and group commits together logically in a PR.
  • Title each PR clearly and give it an unambiguous description.
  • Review existing issues before opening a new one. Your issue might already be under development or discussed by others. Feel free to add to any outstanding issue/bug.
  • Be explicit when opening issues and reporting bugs. What behavior are you expecting? What is your justification or use case for the new feature/enhancement? How can the bug be recreated? What are any environment variables to consider?
