# Contributing to opentelemetry-go-contrib

The Go special interest group (SIG) meets regularly. See the
OpenTelemetry
[community](https://github.com/open-telemetry/community#golang-sdk)
repo for information on this and other language SIGs.

See the [public meeting
notes](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A63zSWX0x2CyCK_LoNhmQC4rqhLpYXJzXbEPDUQ2n6w/edit#heading=h.9tngw7jdwd6b)
for a summary description of past meetings. To request edit access,
join the meeting or get in touch on

## Development

There are some generated files checked into the repo. To make sure
that the generated files are up-to-date, run `make` (or `make
precommit` - the `precommit` target is the default).

The `precommit` target also fixes the formatting of the code and
checks the status of the go module files.

If after running `make precommit` the output of `git status` contains
`nothing to commit, working tree clean` then it means that everything
is up-to-date and properly formatted.

## Pull Requests

### How to Send Pull Requests

Everyone is welcome to contribute code to `opentelemetry-go-contrib` via
GitHub pull requests (PRs).

To create a new PR, fork the project in GitHub and clone the upstream
repo:

```sh
$ git clone https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-go-contrib
```
This would put the project in the `opentelemetry-go-contrib` directory in
current working directory.

Enter the newly created directory and add your fork as a new remote:

```sh
$ git remote add <YOUR_FORK> git@github.com:<YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME>/opentelemetry-go
```

Check out a new branch, make modifications, run linters and tests, update
`CHANGELOG.md` and push the branch to your fork:

```sh
$ git checkout -b <YOUR_BRANCH_NAME>
# edit files
# update changelog
$ make precommit
$ git add -p
$ git commit
$ git push <YOUR_FORK> <YOUR_BRANCH_NAME>
```

Open a pull request against the main `opentelemetry-go-contrib` repo. Be sure to add the pull
request ID to the entry you added to `CHANGELOG.md`.

### How to Receive Comments

* If the PR is not ready for review, please put `[WIP]` in the title,
  tag it as `work-in-progress`, or mark it as
  [`draft`](https://github.blog/2019-02-14-introducing-draft-pull-requests/).
* Make sure CLA is signed and CI is clear.

### How to Get PRs Merged

A PR is considered to be **ready to merge** when:

* It has received two approvals from Approvers/Maintainers (at
  different companies).
* Feedback has been addressed.
* Any substantive changes to your PR will require that you clear any prior
  Approval reviews, this includes changes resulting from other feedback. Unless
  the approver explicitly stated that their approval will persist across
  changes it should be assumed that the PR needs their review again. Other
  project members (e.g. approvers, maintainers) can help with this if there are
  any questions or if you forget to clear reviews.
* It has been open for review for at least one working day. This gives
  people reasonable time to review.
* Trivial change (typo, cosmetic, doc, etc.) doesn't have to wait for
  one day.
* `CHANGELOG.md` has been updated to reflect what has been
  added, changed, removed, or fixed.
* Urgent fix can take exception as long as it has been actively
  communicated.

Any Maintainer can merge the PR once it is **ready to merge**.

## Style Guide

* Make sure to run `make precommit` - this will find and fix the code
  formatting.
* Check [opentelemetry-go Style Guide](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-go/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#style-guide)

## Adding a new Contrib package

To add a new contrib package follow an existing one. An empty Sample instrumentation
provides base structure with an example and a test. Each contrib package 
should be its own module. A contrib package may contain more than one go package.

### Folder Structure
- instrumentation/\<instrumentation-package>  (**Common**)
- instrumentation/\<instrumentation-package>/trace (**specific to trace**)
- instrumentation/\<instrumentation-package>/metrics (**specific to metrics**)

#### Example
- instrumentation/gorm/trace
- instrumentation/kafka/metrics
