# Keycloak Community
|
|
|
|
Keycloak is an Open Source Identity and Access Management solution for modern Applications and Services.
|
|
|
|
## Building and working with the codebase
|
|
|
|
Details for building from source and working with the codebase are provided in the [building and working with the code base](docs/building.md) guide.
|
|
|
|
## Contributing to Keycloak
|
|
|
|
Keycloak is an Open Source community-driven project and we welcome contributions as well as feedback from the community.
|
|
|
|
We do have a few guidelines in place to help you be successful with your contribution to Keycloak.
|
|
|
|
Here's a quick checklist for a good PR, more details below:
|
|
|
|
1. [Keycloak Dev Mailing List](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/keycloak-dev)
|
|
2. A JIRA associated with the PR
|
|
3. One feature/change per PR
|
|
4. One commit per PR
|
|
5. PR rebased on master (`git rebase`, not `git pull`)
|
|
5. Commit message is prefixed by JIRA number
|
|
6. No changes to code not directly related to your PR
|
|
7. Includes functional/integration test
|
|
8. Includes documentation
|
|
|
|
Once you have submitted your PR please monitor it for comments/feedback. We reserve the right to close inactive PRs if
|
|
you do not respond within 2 weeks (bear in mind you can always open a new PR if it is closed due to inactivity).
|
|
|
|
Also, please remember that we do receive a fairly large amount of PRs and also have code to write ourselves, so we may
|
|
not be able to respond to your PR immediately. The best place to ping us is on the thread you started on the dev mailing list.
|
|
|
|
### Finding something to work on
|
|
|
|
If you would like to contribute to Keycloak, but are not sure exactly what to work on, you can find a number of open
|
|
issues that are awaiting contributions in the
|
|
[Keycloak JIRA](https://issues.jboss.org/projects/KEYCLOAK/versions/12340167).
|
|
|
|
### Open a discussion on Keycloak Dev Mailing List
|
|
|
|
As Keycloak is a community-driven project we require contributors to send a description of what they are planning to
|
|
work on to the [Keycloak Dev Mailing List](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/keycloak-dev).
|
|
|
|
We recommend starting the discussion prior to submitting your PR. Through the mailing list you can get valuable
|
|
feedback both from the core Keycloak team as well as the wider community.
|
|
|
|
### Create an issue in Keycloak JIRA
|
|
|
|
Take your time to write a proper JIRA including a good summary and description.
|
|
|
|
Remember this may be the first thing a reviewer of your PR will look at to get an idea of what you are proposing
|
|
and it will also be used by the community in the future to find about what new features and enhancements are included in
|
|
new releases.
|
|
|
|
Note: Keycloak Node.js Admin Client uses GitHub issues and not the Keycloak JIRA.
|
|
|
|
### Implementing
|
|
|
|
Details for building from source and working with the codebase are provided in the
|
|
[building and working with the code base](docs/building.md) guide.
|
|
|
|
Do not format or refactor code that is not directly related to your contribution. If you do this it will significantly
|
|
increase our effort in reviewing your PR. If you have a strong need to refactor code then submit a separate PR for the
|
|
refactoring.
|
|
|
|
### Testing
|
|
|
|
Details for implementing tests are provided in the [writing tests](docs/tests-development.md) guide.
|
|
|
|
Do not add mock frameworks or other testing frameworks that are not already part of the testsuite. Please write tests
|
|
in the same way as we have written our tests.
|
|
|
|
### Documentation
|
|
|
|
We require contributions to include relevant documentation. Alongside your PR for code changes, prepare a PR to the [Keycloak Documentation](https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak-documentation).
|
|
|
|
In the description of your PR include a link to the PR to [Keycloak Documentation](https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak-documentation).
|
|
|
|
### Submitting your PR
|
|
|
|
When preparing your PR make sure you have a single commit and your branch is rebased on the master branch from the
|
|
project repository.
|
|
|
|
This means use the `git rebase` command and not `git pull` when integrating changes from master to your branch. See
|
|
[Git Documentation](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Branching-Rebasing) for more details.
|
|
|
|
We require that you squash to a single commit. You can do this with the `git rebase -i HEAD~X` command where X
|
|
is the number of commits you want to squash. See the [Git Documentation](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Rewriting-History)
|
|
for more details.
|
|
|
|
The above helps us review your PR and also makes it easier for us to maintain the repository. It is also required by
|
|
our automatic merging process.
|
|
|
|
We also require that the commit message is prefixed with the Keycloak JIRA issue number (example commit message
|
|
"KEYCLOAK-9876 My super cool new feature").
