When working on a new feature, improvement or bug fix, please refer to the following process.
Here are the most important points in our coding methodology:
bug/missing-count-param-434
or feature/new-vpc-endpoint-455
.Before writing any code, you will need to file a GitHub issue if one doesn't exist already. We use GitHub issue templates so please select the appropriate type when creating your issue.
Also, ensure you apply the appropriate labels to the issue e.g: in-progress
. Note: In the future, we will use a bot that will automatically add a needs-triage
label to every new GitHub issue, however, you must manually add it for now. This allows us to prioritize issues accordingly.
Bug fixes include any patches or changes that correct unwanted behavior. If the issue is a bug then you should clearly explain any necessary steps and/or code snippets to reproduce it if possible. For more information read 'Report bugs via GitHub Issues'. The following template is added to repos where there is Terraform/Terragrunt/Packer code.
