Contributing to Duktape

Copyrights and licensing

Duktape copyrights are held by its contributors. Contributors agree to license their contribution(s) under Duktape LICENSE.txt. See AUTHORS.txt for details.

To make a code contribution to Duktape

  • Fork the Duktape Github repository and make your changes. Use a well named topic branch for the changes, preferably with lowercase and dashes, e.g. xyz-compiler-fixes. Fork off the master branch. Avoid forking from Duktape repository work branches as they may get rebased.

  • Test your changes as thoroughly as possible. At the very minimum, the number of failed test cases with make qecmatest and make apitest should not increase. If some test cases are invalidated by the changes, fix the test cases as part of the commit. If you add new functionality, you should add test case(s) to illustrate the changes and desired behavior.

  • Ensure your code follows the style guidelines in code-issues.txt. Not everything is spelled out explicitly, so try to follow the general style in the code base. Check that your diff looks as clean and minimal as possible.

  • Add yourself to the end of the author list in AUTHORS.txt if you're not already on the list. By doing this you confirm that:

    • You own the rights to the contribution, or have the legal right to license the contribution under Duktape LICENSE.txt on behalf of the copyright owner(s).

    • You, or the copyright owner(s), agree to irrevocably license your contribution under Duktape LICENSE.txt.

    • Please include an e-mail address, a link to your GitHub profile, or something similar to allow your contribution to be identified accurately.

  • Create a pull request in Github. For now, the "base branch" should be "master", i.e. the pull requests are merged directly to the master branch. In the description:

    • Summarize the change and the motivation for the change.

    • If test case status changes (tests are broken / fixed, test cases themselves needed fixing, test cases were added, etc), mention that.

To report bugs

For now, e-mail to sami.vaarala@iki.fi to report bugs:

  • Please attach a compilation or execution log to help diagnosis.

  • For portability related compilation errors, such as endianness detection, please attach a list of the preprocessor defines provided by your compiler (if possible). For GCC and Clang there are helpful Makefile targets, gccpredefs and clangpredefs.
