All types of contributions are encouraged and valued. See the [Table of contents](#table-of-contents) for different ways to help and details about how | ||

## Code of conduct | ||
|
||
This project is released with a | ||
[Contributor Code of Conduct](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md). | ||
By participating, you are expected to uphold this code. Please report | ||
unacceptable behavior to <nicolas.casajus@fondationbiodiversite.fr>. | ||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Style guide | ||
|
||
We use the [Tidyverse style guide](https://style.tidyverse.org/) for writing R | ||
code. Functions are documented with the | ||
[roxygen2](https://roxygen2.r-lib.org/articles/roxygen2.html) syntax. | ||
`chessboard` uses the `lower_snake_case`. | ||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Commit messages | ||
|
||
If you want to contribute by commiting changes, please try to use the | ||
[Conventional commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/) | ||
specification. | ||
|
||
|
||
## Asking questions | ||
|
||
Before you ask a question, it is best to search for existing | ||
[Issues](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/issues) that might help you. | ||
In case you have found a suitable issue and still need clarification, you can | ||
write your question in this issue. | ||
|
||
If you then still feel the need to ask a question and need clarification, we | ||
recommend the following: | ||
|
||
- Open a new [Issue](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/issues/new). | ||
- Use the template [other_issue.md](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/blob/main/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/other_issue.md). | ||
- Provide as much context as you can about what you're running into. | ||
- Provide project and platform versions (paste the output of `sessionInfo()`). | ||
|
||
We will then take care of the issue as soon as possible. | ||
|
||
|
||
### Reporting bugs | ||
|
||
#### Before submitting a bug report | ||
|
||
A good bug report shouldn't leave others needing to chase you up for more | ||
information. Therefore, we ask you to investigate carefully, collect information | ||
and describe the issue in detail in your report. Please complete the following | ||
steps in advance to help us fix any potential bug as fast as possible. | ||
|
||
- Make sure that you are using the latest version of `chessboard`. | ||
- Determine if your bug is really a bug and not an error on your side. | ||
- To see if other users have experienced (and potentially already solved) the | ||
same issue you are having, check if there is not already a bug report existing | ||
for your bug or error in the [bug tracker](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/issues?q=label%3Abug). | ||
|
||
|
||
#### How do I submit a bug report? | ||
|
||
We use [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/issues) to track | ||
bugs and errors. If you run into an issue with the project: | ||
|
||
- Open a new [Issue](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/issues/new). | ||
- Use the template [bug_report.md](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/blob/main/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.md). | ||
- Explain the behavior you would expect and the actual behavior. | ||
- Please provide as much context as possible and describe the | ||
*reproduction steps* that someone else can follow to recreate the issue on | ||
their own. This usually includes your code with a reproducible example. | ||
|
||
We will then take care of the issue as soon as possible. | ||
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Requesting features | ||
|
||
#### Before requesting a feature | ||
|
||
- Make sure that you are using the latest version of `chessboard`. | ||
- Read the [documentation](https://frbcesab.github.io/chessboard/) | ||
carefully and find out if the functionality is already covered. | ||
- Perform a [search](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/issues) to see if | ||
this enhancement has already been suggested. If it has, add a comment to the | ||
existing issue instead of opening a new one. | ||
|
||
|
||
#### How do I submit a feature request? | ||
|
||
Feature requests are tracked as | ||
[GitHub Issues](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/issues). | ||
|
||
- Open a new [Issue](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/issues/new). | ||
- Use the template [feature_request.md](https://github.com/FRBCesab/chessboard/blob/main/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature_request.md). | ||
- Provide a clear and descriptive title for the issue to identify the suggestion. | ||
- Provide a step-by-step description of the suggested enhancement in as | ||
many details as possible. | ||
- Explain why this enhancement would be useful to most `chessboard` users. | ||
|
||
We will then take care of the issue as soon as possible. | ||
|
||
