### Contributing ###
|
||||
|
||||
Thank you for your interest in `loopback`, an open source project
|
||||
administered by StrongLoop.
|
||||
|
||||
Contributing to loopback is easy. In a few simple steps:
|
||||
|
||||
* Ensure that your effort is aligned with the project’s roadmap by
|
||||
talking to the maintainers, especially if you are going to spend a
|
||||
lot of time on it. This project is currently maintained by
|
||||
[@ritch](https://github.com/ritch), [@raymondfeng](https://github.com/raymondfeng),
|
||||
and [@bajtos](https://github.com/bajtos). The preferred channel of communication
|
||||
is [LoopBack Forum](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/loopbackjs) or
|
||||
[Github Issues](https://github.com/strongloop/loopback/issues).
|
||||
|
||||
* Make something better or fix a bug.
|
||||
|
||||
* Adhere to code style outlined in the
|
||||
[Google Javascript Style Guide][].
|
||||
|
||||
* [Sign your patches](#signing-patches) to indicate that your are
|
||||
making your contribution available under the terms of the
|
||||
[Contributor License Agreement](#contributor-license-agreement).
|
||||
|
||||
* Submit a pull request through Github.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Signing patches ###
|
||||
|
||||
Like many open source projects, we need a contributor license agreement
|
||||
from you before we can merge in your changes.
|
||||
|
||||
In summary, by submitting your code, you are granting us a right to use
|
||||
that code under the terms of this Agreement, including providing it to
|
||||
others. You are also certifying that you wrote it, and that you are
|
||||
allowed to license it to us. You are not giving up your copyright in
|
||||
your work. The license does not change your rights to use your own
|
||||
contributions for any other purpose.
|
||||
|
||||
Contributor License Agreements are important because they define the
|
||||
chain of ownership of a piece of software. Some companies won't allow
|
||||
the use of free software without clear agreements around code ownership.
|
||||
That's why many open source projects collect similar agreements from
|
||||
contributors. The CLA here is based on the Apache CLA.
|
||||
|
||||
To signify your agreement to these terms, add the following line to the
|
||||
bottom of your commit message. Use your real name and an actual e-mail
|
||||
address.
|
||||
|
||||
```

||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively you can use the git command line to automatically add this
|
||||
line, as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ git commit -sm "Replace rainbows by unicorns"
|
||||
```
|
||||

||||

### Contributor License Agreement ###
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Individual Contributor License Agreement
|
||||
|
||||
By signing this Individual Contributor License Agreement
|
||||
("Agreement"), and making a Contribution (as defined below) to
|
||||
StrongLoop, Inc. ("StrongLoop"), You (as defined below) accept and
|
||||
agree to the following terms and conditions for Your present and
|
||||
future Contributions submitted to StrongLoop. Except for the license
|
||||
granted in this Agreement to StrongLoop and recipients of software
|
||||
distributed by StrongLoop, You reserve all right, title, and interest
|
||||
in and to Your Contributions.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Definitions
|
||||
|
||||
"You" or "Your" shall mean the copyright owner or the individual
|
||||
authorized by the copyright owner that is entering into this
|
||||
Agreement with StrongLoop.
|
||||
|
||||
"Contribution" shall mean any original work of authorship,
|
||||
including any modifications or additions to an existing work, that
|
||||
is intentionally submitted by You to StrongLoop for inclusion in,
|
||||
or documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by
|
||||
StrongLoop ("Work"). For purposes of this definition, "submitted"
|
||||
means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication
|
||||
sent to StrongLoop or its representatives, including but not
|
||||
limited to communication or electronic mailing lists, source code
|
||||
control systems, and issue tracking systems that are managed by,
|
||||
or on behalf of, StrongLoop for the purpose of discussing and
|
||||
improving the Work, but excluding communication that is
|
||||
conspicuously marked or otherwise designated in writing by You as
|
||||
"Not a Contribution."
|
||||
|
||||
2. You Grant a Copyright License to StrongLoop
|
||||
|
||||
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby
|
||||
grant to StrongLoop and recipients of software distributed by
|
||||
StrongLoop, a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge,
|
||||
royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare
|
||||
derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform,
|
||||
sublicense, and distribute Your Contributions and such derivative
|
||||
works under any license and without any restrictions.
|
||||
|
||||
3. You Grant a Patent License to StrongLoop
|
||||
|
||||
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby
|
||||
grant to StrongLoop and to recipients of software distributed by
|
||||
StrongLoop a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge,
|
||||
royalty-free, irrevocable (except as stated in this Section)
|
||||
patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell,
|
||||
import, and otherwise transfer the Work under any license and
|
||||
without any restrictions. The patent license You grant to
|
||||
StrongLoop under this Section applies only to those patent claims
|
||||
licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your
|
||||
Contributions(s) alone or by combination of Your Contributions(s)
|
||||
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If any
|
||||
entity institutes a patent litigation against You or any other
|
||||
entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit)
|
||||
alleging that Your Contribution, or the Work to which You have
|
||||
contributed, constitutes direct or contributory patent
|
||||
infringement, any patent licenses granted to that entity under
|
||||
this Agreement for that Contribution or Work shall terminate as
|
||||
of the date such litigation is filed.
|
||||
|
||||
4. You Have the Right to Grant Licenses to StrongLoop
|
||||
|
||||
You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the licenses
|
||||
in this Agreement.
|
||||
|
||||
If Your employer(s) has rights to intellectual property that You
|
||||
create, You represent that You have received permission to make
|
||||
the Contributions on behalf of that employer, that Your employer
|
||||
has waived such rights for Your Contributions, or that Your
|
||||
employer has executed a separate Corporate Contributor License
|
||||
Agreement with StrongLoop.
|
||||
|
||||
5. The Contributions Are Your Original Work
|
||||
|
||||
You represent that each of Your Contributions are Your original
|
||||
works of authorship (see Section 8 (Submissions on Behalf of
|
||||
Others) for submission on behalf of others). You represent that to
|
||||
Your knowledge, no other person claims, or has the right to claim,
|
||||
any right in any intellectual property right related to Your
|
||||
Contributions.
|
||||
|
||||
You also represent that You are not legally obligated, whether by
|
||||
entering into an agreement or otherwise, in any way that conflicts
|
||||
with the terms of this Agreement.
|
||||
|
||||
You represent that Your Contribution submissions include complete
|
||||
details of any third-party license or other restriction (including,
|
||||
but not limited to, related patents and trademarks) of which You
|
||||
are personally aware and which are associated with any part of
|
||||
Your Contributions.
|
||||
|
||||
6. You Don't Have an Obligation to Provide Support for Your Contributions
|
||||
|
||||
You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions,
|
||||
except to the extent You desire to provide support. You may provide
|
||||
support for free, for a fee, or not at all.
|
||||
|
||||
6. No Warranties or Conditions
|
||||
|
||||
StrongLoop acknowledges that unless required by applicable law or
|
||||
agreed to in writing, You provide Your Contributions on an "AS IS"
|
||||
BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER
|
||||
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES
|
||||
OR CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, OR
|
||||
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Submission on Behalf of Others
|
||||
|
||||
If You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation, You
|
||||
may submit it to StrongLoop separately from any Contribution,
|
||||
identifying the complete details of its source and of any license
|
||||
or other restriction (including, but not limited to, related
|
||||
patents, trademarks, and license agreements) of which You are
|
||||
personally aware, and conspicuously marking the work as
|
||||
"Submitted on Behalf of a Third-Party: [named here]".
|
||||
|
||||
8. Agree to Notify of Change of Circumstances
|
||||
|
||||
You agree to notify StrongLoop of any facts or circumstances of
|
||||
which You become aware that would make these representations
|
||||
inaccurate in any respect. Email us at callback@strongloop.com.
