CONTRIBUTING

Thank you for considering contributing to this distribution. This file contains instructions that will help you work with the source code.

Please note that if you have any questions or difficulties, you can reach the maintainer(s) through the bug queue described later in this document (preferred), or by emailing the releaser directly. You are not required to follow any of the steps in this document to submit a patch or bug report; these are recommendations, intended to help you (and help us help you faster).

The distribution is managed with Dist::Zilla.

However, you can still compile and test the code with the Makefile.PL or Build.PL in the repository:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test

or

perl Build.PL
./Build
./Build test

As well as:

$ prove -bvr t

or

$ perl -Mblib t/some_test_file.t

You may need to satisfy some dependencies. The easiest way to satisfy dependencies is to install the last release. This is available at https://metacpan.org/release/WebService-PivotalTracker

If you use cpanminus, you can do it without downloading the tarball first:

$ cpanm --reinstall --installdeps --with-recommends WebService::PivotalTracker

Dist::Zilla is a very powerful authoring tool, but requires a number of author-specific plugins. If you would like to use it for contributing, install it from CPAN, then run one of the following commands, depending on your CPAN client:

$ cpan `dzil authordeps --missing`

or

$ dzil authordeps --missing | cpanm

There may also be additional requirements not needed by the dzil build which are needed for tests or other development:

$ cpan `dzil listdeps --author --missing`

or

$ dzil listdeps --author --missing | cpanm

Or, you can use the 'dzil stale' command to install all requirements at once:

$ cpan Dist::Zilla::App::Command::stale
$ cpan `dzil stale --all`

or

$ cpanm Dist::Zilla::App::Command::stale
$ dzil stale --all | cpanm

You can also do this via cpanm directly:

$ cpanm --reinstall --installdeps --with-develop --with-recommends WebService::PivotalTracker

Once installed, here are some dzil commands you might try:

$ dzil build
$ dzil test
$ dzil test --release
$ dzil xtest
$ dzil listdeps --json
$ dzil build --notgz

You can learn more about Dist::Zilla at http://dzil.org/.

The code for this distribution is hosted at GitHub.

You can submit code changes by forking the repository, pushing your code changes to your clone, and then submitting a pull request. Detailed instructions for doing that is available here:

https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request

If you have found a bug, but do not have an accompanying patch to fix it, you can submit an issue report via the web . This is a good place to send your questions about the usage of this distribution.

Travis

All pull requests for this distribution will be automatically tested by Travis and the build status will be reported on the pull request page. If your build fails, please take a look at the output.

Tidyall

This distribution uses Code::TidyAll to enforce a uniform coding style. This is tested as part of the author testing suite. You can install and run tidyall by running the following commands:

$ cpanm Code::TidyAll
$ tidyall -a

Please run this before committing your changes and address any issues it brings up.

Contributor Names

If you send a patch or pull request, your name and email address will be included in the documentation as a contributor (using the attribution on the commit or patch), unless you specifically request for it not to be. If you wish to be listed under a different name or address, you should submit a pull request to the .mailmap file to contain the correct mapping. Check here for more information on git's .mailmap files.
