Contributing Guidelines

Thank you for your interest in contributing to our project. Whether it's a bug report, new feature, correction, or additional documentation, we greatly value feedback and contributions from our community.

Please read through this document before submitting any issues or pull requests to ensure we have all the necessary information to effectively respond to your bug report or contribution.

Reporting Bugs/Feature Requests

We welcome you to use the GitHub issue tracker to report bugs or suggest features.

When filing an issue, please check existing open, or recently closed, issues to make sure somebody else hasn't already reported the issue. Please try to include as much information as you can. Details like these are incredibly useful:

  • A reproducible test case or series of steps
  • The version of our code being used
  • Any modifications you've made relevant to the bug
  • Anything unusual about your environment or deployment

Contributing via Pull Requests

Contributions via pull requests are much appreciated. Before sending us a pull request, please ensure that:

  1. You are working against the latest source on the main branch.
  2. You check existing open, and recently merged, pull requests to make sure someone else hasn't addressed the problem already.
  3. You open an issue to discuss any significant work - we would hate for your time to be wasted.

To send us a pull request, please:

  1. Fork the repository.
  2. Modify the source; please focus on the specific change you are contributing. If you also reformat all the code, it will be hard for us to focus on your change.
  3. Ensure local tests pass.
  4. Commit to your fork using clear commit messages.
  5. Send us a pull request, answering any default questions in the pull request interface.
  6. Pay attention to any automated CI failures reported in the pull request, and stay involved in the conversation.

GitHub provides additional document on forking a repository and creating a pull request.

Setting Up a Local Development Environment

To test and run the project with your local changes, follow these steps to set up a development environment:

  1. Install Dependencies: Ensure you have the necessary dependencies installed, including:

    • Go (version specified in go.mod).
    • kubectl for interacting with Kubernetes clusters.
    • A local Kubernetes cluster such as kind.

  2. Create a Local Kubernetes Cluster: If you don't already have a cluster, create one with your preferred tool. For example, with kind:

    kind create cluster

  3. Install the Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs): Apply the latest CRDs to your cluster:

    make generate
kubectl apply -k ./config/crd

  4. Run the kro Controller Locally: Execute the controller with your changes:

    go run ./cmd/controller --log-level 2

    This will connect to the default Kubernetes context in your local kubeconfig (~/.kube/config). Ensure the context is pointing to your local cluster.

By following these steps, you can setup a local environment to test your contributions before submitting a pull request.

Finding contributions to work on

Looking at the existing issues is a great way to find something to contribute on. As our projects, by default, use the default GitHub issue labels (enhancement/bug/duplicate/help wanted/invalid/question/wontfix), looking at any 'help wanted' issues is a great place to start.
