Welcome to the WildFly Naming Client project! We welcome contributions from the community. This guide will walk you through the steps for getting started on our project.
To contribute, you will first need to fork the wildfly-naming-client repository.
This can be done by looking in the top-right corner of the repository page and clicking "Fork".
The next step is to clone your newly forked repository onto your local workspace. This can be done by going to your newly forked repository, which should be at https://github.com/USERNAME/wildfly-naming-client
.
Then, there will be a green button that says "Code". Click on that and copy the URL.
Then, in your terminal, paste the following command:
git clone [URL]
Be sure to replace [URL] with the URL that you copied.
Now you have the repository on your computer!
Want to contribute to the WildFly Naming client project but aren't quite sure where to start? Check out our issues with the good-first-issue
label.
Once you have selected an issue you'd like to work on, make sure it's not already assigned to someone else. To assign an issue to yourself, simply click on "Start Progress". This will automatically assign the issue to you.
It is recommended that you use a separate branch for every issue you work on. To keep things straightforward and memorable, you can name each branch using the JIRA issue number. This way, you can have multiple PRs open for different issues. For example, if you were working on WFNC-84, you could use WFNC-84 as your branch name.
You will need:
- JDK
- Git
- Maven
- An IDE (e.g., IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, etc.)

In general, it's good practice squashing all of your commits into a single commit. For larger changes, it's ok to have multiple meaningful commits. If you need help with squashing your commits, feel free to ask us how to do this on your pull request. We're more than happy to help!

Please include the link to the JIRA issue you worked on in the description of the pull request. For example, if your PR adds a fix for WFNC-84, the PR description should contain a link to https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFNC-84.
