Contributing to Libris XL

Libris XL is published openly for transparency reasons. There are some ways that you can contribute to the development and quality of Libris XL.

Using the issue tracker

The issue tracker is the preferred channel for bug reports and feature requests for technical issues regarding the Libris XL technical platform, i.e the backend. For general questions contact [email protected]. Please also respect the following restrictions:

  • Please do not use the issue tracker for questions regarding the actual content or data quality in Libris.

  • Please do not use the issue tracker for policy questions or questions about Libris in general.

  • Please do not use the issue tracker for personal support requests.

  • Please do not derail or troll issues. Keep the tone civil and the discussion on topic. Respect the opinions of others.

Bug reports

A bug is a demonstrable problem that is caused by the code in the repository. Good bug reports are extremely helpful - thank you!

Guidelines for bug reports:

  1. Use the GitHub issue search — check if the issue has already been reported.

  2. Check if the issue has been fixed — try to reproduce it using the latest master or develop branch in the repository.

  3. Isolate the problem — create a reduced test case and a live example.

A good bug report shouldn't leave others needing to chase you up for more information. Please try to be as detailed as possible in your report. What is your environment? What steps will reproduce the issue? What browser(s) and OS experience the problem? What would you expect to be the outcome? All these details will help people to fix any potential bugs.

Feature requests

Feature requests are welcome. But take a moment to find out whether your idea fits with the scope and aims of the project. It's up to you to make a strong case to convince the project's developers of the merits of this feature. Please provide as much detail and context as possible.
