This wiki contains all design documents and other related material to doing development on Ehcache, not using Ehcache! If you are a developer that wants to get involved in developing new features, fixing bugs, extend the existing or implement a new module based on the Ehcache3 SPIs, this is the place you’ve been looking for. Be welcome!
On paper (or on this screen), it’s pretty straight forward:
-
Join the developer mailing list and say hello! Or join us on irc #ehcache on freenode
-
Check the issues and verify what you want isn’t yet planned or could even already being worked on by someone; We’re also using a board on waffle.io, where work for the current milestone is prioritized;
-
If the task exists already and isn’t assigned: drop us an email on the developer mailing list about it and we’ll make sure we help you getting started and we’ll assign the task/issue to you;
-
If nothing matches in the existing issue list, create a bug as such; or, if we’re talking about a larger task or feature, drop us a message first, and we’ll see how to tackle it;
-
Fork the project to your own repository and get started (you probably want to work on a dedicated branch);
-
Rebase your fork and do a pull request. We’ll use that to code review it (see git usage page as well as the developer guidelines)
-
Be rich and famous!
Now, the doing the work part might be a little more challenging, and we don’t provide any guarantees as to becoming rich… but you’ll be famous to us!
