- Fork the repo.
- Have a look around to get a feel for the app
bundle && rake db:create db:migrate db:seed - Run the tests. We only take pull requests with passing tests, and it's great to know that you have a clean slate:
bundle && rake - Add a test for your change. Only styling, documentation and refactoring changes don't require any new tests.If you are adding functionality or fixing a bug, we need a test! Also, no need to test rails!
- Make the test pass.
- Commit, with a meaningful describing message. This is very important!
- Push to your fork and submit a pull request.
- Wait for comments or feedback - we usually get back superfast!
Syntax:
- no trailing whitespace. Blank lines should not have any space.
- my_method(my_arg) or my_method arguments but definitely not my_method( my_arg )
- a = b and not a=b.
- aim for 1.9 hash syntax -
{ dog: "Akira", cat: "Rocky" }rather than{ :dog => "Akira", :pug => "Rocky" } - follow the conventions you see used in the source already.
