Contributing to Regenerator
Regenerator uses GitHub as its sole source of truth. Everything happens here. Facebook employees who contribute to Regenerator are expected to do so in the same way as everyone else. In other words, this document applies equally to all contributors.
master
is unsafe
We will do our best to keep master
in good shape, with tests passing at
all times. But in order to move fast, we will make API changes that your
application might not be compatible with. We will do our best to
communicate these changes and always version appropriately so you can lock
into a specific version if need be.
Pull Requests
In case you've never submitted a pull request (PR) via GitHub before, please read this short tutorial. If you've submitted a PR before, there should be nothing surprising about our procedures for Regenerator.
Before submitting a pull request, please make sure the following is done…
- Fork the repo and create your branch from
master
. - If you've added code that should be tested, add tests!
- Ensure the test suite passes (
npm test
). - If you haven't already, complete the CLA.
- Submit a pull request via GitHub.
- Check that Travis CI tests pass (pull request turns green).
Contributor License Agreement ("CLA")
In order to accept your pull request, we need you to submit a CLA. You only need to do this once, so if you've done this for another Facebook open source project, you're good to go. If you are submitting a pull request for the first time, just let us know that you have completed the CLA and we can cross-check with your GitHub username.

Bugs
Where to Find Known Issues
We will be using GitHub Issues for all bugs. Before filing a new issue, please try to make sure your problem doesn't already exist. If you think your issue is more general than one that already exists, our preference is still to modify the original issue to reflect the underlying problem more faithfully.
Reporting New Issues
The best way to get a bug fixed is to provide a reduced test case, and the easiest way to reduce a testcase is to edit it in the sandbox until you're satisfied and then click the "report a bug" link (the new issue will be populated automatically with your code).
Security Bugs
Facebook has a bounty program for the safe disclosure of security bugs. With that in mind, please do not file public issues and go through the process outlined on that page.
Coding Style
- Use semicolons;
- Commas last,
- 2 spaces for indentation (no tabs).
- Prefer
"
over'
- 80 character line length
- Match surrounding coding style.
- Less code is better code.
