Contributing Guidelines

Code styles

Make sure to check and fix code formatting issues before contributing:

Chaincode and Go SDK

Use gofmt to format your code and golangci-lint to check for code style issues.
Java SDK

Run mvn spotless:check and mvn checkstyle:check to check for code style issues and mvn spotless:apply to reformat code.
JavaScript SDK

Run npm run format and npm run lint to format code and fix obvious issues. Run npm run format:check and npm run lint:check to check for them.

We use SemVer for versioning. Any changes to the code base should not be released in an existing version.

The commit message should follow the Bluejava commit message format. The supported scopes are:

chaincode for chaincode commits
go for Go SDK-related commits
java for Java SDK-related commits
javascript for JavaScript SDK-related commits
build for build scripts, CI, other development or deployment related commits
use * or leave empty to refer to commits that do not have a clear scope
