# Contributing to the Firebase C++ Quickstarts
2+
3+
We'd love for you to contribute to our source code and to make the Firebase C++
4+
Quickstarts project even better than they are today! Here are the guidelines
5+
we'd like you to follow:
6+
7+
- [Code of Conduct](#coc)
8+
- [Question or Problem?](#question)
9+
- [Issues and Bugs](#issue)
10+
- [Feature Requests](#feature)
11+
- [Submission Guidelines](#submit)

- [Signing the CLA](#cla)
14+
15+
## <a name="coc"></a> Code of Conduct
16+
17+
As contributors and maintainers of the Firebase C++ Quickstarts project, we
18+
pledge to respect everyone who contributes by posting issues, updating
19+
documentation, submitting pull requests, providing feedback in comments, and
20+
any other activities.
21+
22+
Communication through any of Firebase's channels (GitHub, StackOverflow,
23+
Google+, Twitter, etc.) must be constructive and never resort to personal
24+
attacks, trolling, public or private harassment, insults, or other
25+
unprofessional conduct.
26+
27+
We promise to extend courtesy and respect to everyone involved in this project
28+
regardless of gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, age,
29+
race, ethnicity, religion, or level of experience. We expect anyone
30+
contributing to the project to do the same.
31+
32+
If any member of the community violates this code of conduct, the maintainers
33+
of the Firebase C++ Quickstarts project may take action, removing issues,
34+
comments, and PRs or blocking accounts as deemed appropriate.
35+
36+
## <a name="question"></a> Got a Question or Problem?
37+
38+
If you have questions about how to use the Firebase C++ Quickstarts, please
39+
direct these to [StackOverflow][stackoverflow] and use the `firebase` tag. We
40+
are also available on GitHub issues.
41+
42+
If you feel that we're missing an important bit of documentation, feel free to
43+
file an issue so we can help. Here's an example to get you started:
44+
45+
```
46+
What are you trying to do or find out more about?
47+
48+
Where have you looked?
49+
50+
Where did you expect to find this information?
51+
```
52+
53+
## <a name="issue"></a> Found an Issue?
54+
If you find a bug in the source code or a mistake in the documentation, you can
55+
help us by submitting an issue to our [GitHub Repository][github]. Even better
56+
you can submit a Pull Request with a fix.
57+
58+
See [below](#submit) for some guidelines.
59+
60+
## <a name="submit"></a> Submission Guidelines
61+
62+
### Submitting an Issue
63+
Before you submit your issue, search the archive, maybe your question was
64+
already answered.
65+
66+
If your issue appears to be a bug, and hasn't been reported, open a new issue.
67+
Help us to maximize the effort we can spend fixing issues and adding new
68+
features, by not reporting duplicate issues. Providing the following
69+
information will increase the chances of your issue being dealt with quickly:
70+
71+
* **Overview of the Issue** - if an error is being thrown a stack trace with
72+
symbols helps
73+
* **Motivation for or Use Case** - explain why this is a bug for you
74+
* **Operating System** - is this a problem for all operating systems?
75+
* **Reproduce the Error** - provide a live example or a unambiguous set of
76+
steps.
77+
* **Related Issues** - has a similar issue been reported before?
78+
* **Suggest a Fix** - if you can't fix the bug yourself, perhaps you can point
79+
to what might be causing the problem (line of code or commit)
80+
81+
**If you get help, help others. Good karma rulez!**
82+
83+
Here's a template to get you started:
84+
85+
```
86+
Operating system:
87+
Operating system version:
88+
89+
What steps will reproduce the problem:
90+
1.
91+
2.
92+
3.
93+
94+
What is the expected result?
95+
96+
What happens instead of that?
97+
98+
Please provide any other information below, and attach a screenshot if possible.
99+
```
100+
101+
### Submitting a Pull Request
102+
Before you submit your pull request consider the following guidelines:
103+
104+
* Search [GitHub](https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-cpp/pulls) for an open
105+
or closed Pull Request that relates to your submission. You don't want to
106+
duplicate effort.
107+
* Please sign our [Contributor License Agreement (CLA)](#cla) before sending
108+
pull requests. We cannot accept code without this.
109+
* Make your changes in a new git branch:
110+
111+
```shell
112+
git checkout -b my-fix-branch master
113+
```
114+
115+
* Create your patch, **including appropriate test cases**.
116+
* Follow our [Coding Rules](#rules).
117+
* Avoid checking in files that shouldn't be tracked (e.g `.tmp`, `.idea`).
118+
We recommend using a [global](#global-gitignore) gitignore for this.
119+
* Commit your changes using a descriptive commit message.
120+
121+
```shell
122+
git commit -a
123+
```
124+
Note: the optional commit `-a` command line option will automatically "add"
125+
and "rm" edited files.
126+
127+
* Build your changes locally and run the applications to verify they're still
128+
functional.
129+
130+
* Push your branch to GitHub:
131+
132+
```shell
133+
git push origin my-fix-branch
134+
```
135+
136+
* In GitHub, send a pull request to `firebase/quickstart-cpp:master`.
137+
* If we suggest changes then:
138+
* Make the required updates.
139+
* Rebase your branch and force push to your GitHub repository (this will
140+
update your Pull Request):
141+
142+
```shell
143+
git rebase master -i
144+
git push origin my-fix-branch -f
145+
```
146+
147+
That's it! Thank you for your contribution!
148+
149+
#### After your pull request is merged
150+
151+
After your pull request is merged, you can safely delete your branch and pull
152+
the changes from the main (upstream) repository:
153+
154+
* Delete the remote branch on GitHub either through the GitHub UI or your local
155+
shell as follows:
156+
157+
```shell
158+
git push origin --delete my-fix-branch
159+
```
160+
161+
* Check out the master branch:
162+
163+
```shell
164+
git checkout master -f
165+
```
166+
167+
* Delete the local branch:
168+
169+
```shell
170+
git branch -D my-fix-branch
171+
```
172+
173+
* Update your master with the latest upstream version:
174+
175+
```shell
176+
git pull --ff upstream master
177+
```
178+
179+
## <a name="rules"></a> Coding Rules
180+
181+
We generally follow the [Google C++ style guide][cpp-style-guide].
182+
183+
## <a name="cla"></a> Signing the CLA

185+
Please sign our [Contributor License Agreement][google-cla] (CLA) before sending
186+
pull requests. For any code changes to be accepted, the CLA must be signed.

39+
(an example is provided in the Appendix below).
40+
41+
"Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
42+
form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
43+
editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
44+
represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
45+
of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
46+
separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
47+
the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
48+
49+
"Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including

51+
to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
52+
submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner

68+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
69+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
70+
copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,

(except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,

where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
80+
by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
81+
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
82+
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
83+
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
84+
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
85+
or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
86+
or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
87+
granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
88+
as of the date such litigation is filed.
89+
90+
4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
91+
Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
92+
modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
93+
meet the following conditions:
94+
95+
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
96+
Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
97+
98+
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
99+
stating that You changed the files; and
100+
101+
(c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
102+
that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
103+
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
104+
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
105+
the Derivative Works; and
106+
107+
(d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
108+
distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
109+
include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
110+
within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
111+
pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
112+
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
113+
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
114+
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
115+
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
116+
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
117+
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
118+
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
119+
notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
120+
or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
121+
that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
122+
as modifying the License.
123+
124+
You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
125+
may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
126+
for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
127+
for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
128+
reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
129+
the conditions stated in this License.
130+
131+
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
132+
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
133+
by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
134+
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
135+
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
136+
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
137+
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
138+
139+
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
140+
names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
141+
except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
142+
origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
143+
144+
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
145+
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
146+
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
147+
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
148+
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
149+
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
150+
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
151+
appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
152+
risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
153+
154+
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
155+
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
156+
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
157+
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
158+
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
159+
incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
160+
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
161+
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
162+
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
163+
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
164+
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
165+
166+
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
167+
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
168+
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
169+
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
170+
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
171+
on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
172+
of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
173+
defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
174+
incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
175+
of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
176+
177+
