Contributing to OPNsense
|
||
|
|
========================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Thanks for considering a pull request or issue report. Below are a
|
||
|
|
few hints and tips in order to make them as effective as possible.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Issue reports
|
||
|
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Issue reports can be bug reports or feature requests. Make sure to
|
||
|
|
search the open and closed issues before adding a new one. It is
|
||
|
|
often better to join an ongoing discussions on similar open issues
|
||
|
|
than creating a new one as there may be workarounds or ideas available.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When creating bug reports, please make sure you provide the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The current OPNsense version where the bug first appeared
|
||
|
|
* The last OPNsense version where the bug did not exist
|
||
|
|
* The exact URL of the GUI page involved (if any)
|
||
|
|
* A list of steps to replicate the bug
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Issue templates can help with getting this just right.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All issues reported will have to be triaged and prioritised. As we
|
||
|
|
are a small team we may not always have the time to implement and help,
|
||
|
|
but reporting an issue may help others to fill in.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The issue catetories are as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* support: community-based help figuring out setup issues or code problems
|
||
|
|
* cleanup: cosmetic changes or non-operational bugs (display issues, etc.)
|
||
|
|
* bug: identified operational bug (core features, etc.)
|
||
|
|
* feature: behavioural changes, additions as well as missing options
|
||
|
|
* help wanted: a contributor is missing to carry out the work
|
||
|
|
* upstream: problem exists in the included third-party software
|
||
|
|
* incomplete: issue template missing or incomplete
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Feature requests that are in line with project goals will eventually
|
||
|
|
be added to our roadmap:
|
||
|
|
|
||

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Feature requests beyond the scope of OPNsense may still be provided
|
||
|
|
using the plugin framework:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/issues
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Stale issues are timed out after 180 days inactivity. Please
|
||
|
|
note that this includes non-support issues such as feature requests
|
||
|
|
that are not picked up by a contributor, which means it is highly
|
||
|
|
unlikely the feature will be implemented in the first place unless a
|
||
|
|
pull request is provided along with the issue.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Responding to issues is completely voluntary for all participants.
|
||
|
|
As a general rule, closed tickets shall and will not be responded to.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And above all: stay kind and open. :)
