## Coding Guidelines
### Support new Software
* Create folder with the software name.
* Add a `Dockerfile`, write your code there.
* You may add additional files in the software folder.
* Add the software to the `docker-compose.yml` file.
* Make sure you follow our commenting style.
* Add the software in the `Readme`.
### Edit existing Software
* Open the software (container) folder.
* Edit the files you want to update.
* **Note:** If you want to edit the base image of the `Workspace` or the `php-fpm` Containers,
you need to edit their Dockerfiles from their Github repositories. For more info read their Dockerfiles comment on the LaraDock repository.
* Make sure to update the `Readme` incase you made any changes.
## Issue/PR Submission Guidelines
### Submitting an Issue
Before you submit your issue search the archive, maybe your question was already answered.
If your issue appears to be a bug, and hasn't been reported, open a new issue.
Help us to maximize the effort we can spend fixing issues and adding new
features, by not reporting duplicate issues.
### Submitting a Pull Request (PR)
Before you submit your pull request consider the following guidelines:
* Search [GitHub](https://github.com/LaraDock/laradock/pulls) for an open or closed Pull Request that relates to your submission. You don't want to duplicate effort.
* Make your changes in a new git branch:
```shell
git checkout -b my-fix-branch master
```
* Commit your changes using a descriptive commit message.
* Push your branch to GitHub:
```shell
git push origin my-fix-branch
```
* In GitHub, send a pull request to `laradock:master`.
* If we suggest changes then:
* Make the required updates.
* Commit your changes to your branch (e.g. `my-fix-branch`).
* Push the changes to your GitHub repository (this will update your Pull Request).
> If the PR gets too outdated we may ask you to rebase and force push to update the PR:
```shell
git rebase master -i
git push origin my-fix-branch -f
```
*WARNING. Squashing or reverting commits and forced push thereafter may remove GitHub comments on code that were previously made by you and others in your commits.*
### After your pull request is merged
After your pull request is merged, you can safely delete your branch and pull the changes
from the main (upstream) repository:
* Delete the remote branch on GitHub either through the GitHub web UI or your local shell as follows:
```shell
git push origin --delete my-fix-branch
```
* Check out the master branch:
```shell
git checkout master -f
```
* Delete the local branch:
```shell
git branch -D my-fix-branch
```
* Update your master with the latest upstream version:
```shell
git pull --ff upstream master
```
