Contributing to Kiota Java

Kiota Java is a mono-repo containing source code for the following packages:

  • 'com.microsoft.kiota:microsoft-kiota-abstractions'
  • 'com.microsoft.kiota:microsoft-kiota-http-okHttp'
  • 'com.microsoft.kiota:microsoft-kiota-authentication-azure'
  • 'com.microsoft.kiota:microsoft-kiota-bundle'
  • 'com.microsoft.kiota:microsoft-kiota-serialization-multipart'
  • 'com.microsoft.kiota:microsoft-kiota-serialization-text'
  • 'com.microsoft.kiota:microsoft-kiota-serialization-json'
  • 'com.microsoft.kiota:microsoft-kiota-serialization-form'

Kiota Java is open to contributions. There are a couple of different recommended paths to get contributions into the released version of this library.

NOTE A signed a contribution license agreement is required for all contributions, and is checked automatically on new pull requests. Please read and sign the agreement before starting any work for this repository.

File issues

The best way to get started with a contribution is to start a dialog with the owners of this repository. Sometimes features will be under development or out of scope for this SDK and it's best to check before starting work on contribution. Discussions on bugs and potential fixes could point you to the write change to make.

Submit pull requests for bug fixes and features

Feel free to submit a pull request with a linked issue against the main branch. The main branch will be updated frequently.

Commit message format

To support our automated release process, pull requests are required to follow the Conventional Commit format.

Each commit message consists of a header, an optional body and an optional footer. The header is the first line of the commit and MUST have a type (see below for a list of types) and a description. An optional scope can be added to the header to give extra context.

<type>[optional scope]: <short description>
<BLANK LINE>
<optional body>
<BLANK LINE>
<optional footer(s)>

The recommended commit types used are:

  • feat for feature updates (increments the minor version)
  • fix for bug fixes (increments the patch version)
  • perf for performance related changes e.g. optimizing an algorithm
  • refactor for code refactoring changes
  • test for test suite updates e.g. adding a test or fixing a test
  • style for changes that don't affect the meaning of code. e.g. formatting changes
  • docs for documentation updates e.g. ReadMe update or code documentation updates
  • build for build system changes (gradle updates, external dependency updates)
  • ci for CI configuration file changes e.g. updating a pipeline
  • chore for miscallaneous non-sdk changesin the repo e.g. removing an unused file

Adding a an exclamation mark after the commit type (feat!) or footer with the prefix BREAKING CHANGE: will cause an increment of the major version.
