  <h1>Contributing Process</h1>

<h2 id="project-management">Project Management</h2>
<p>The Code, our TODOs and Documentation is maintained on
<a href="https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets">GitHub</a>. All Issues
should be opened in that repository.
We have a <a href="../roadmap/">Roadmap</a> to track progress for our road towards GA.</p>
<h2 id="issues">Issues</h2>
<p>Features, bugs and any issues regarding the documentation should be filed as
<a href="https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/issues">GitHub Issue</a> in
our repository. We use labels like <code>kind/feature</code>, <code>kind/bug</code>, <code>area/aws</code> to
organize the issues. Issues labeled <code>good first issue</code> and <code>help wanted</code> are
especially good for a first contribution. If you want to pick up an issue just
leave a comment.</p>
<h2 id="submitting-a-pull-request">Submitting a Pull Request</h2>
<p>This project uses the well-known pull request process from GitHub. To submit a
pull request, fork the repository and push any changes to a branch on the copy,
from there a pull request can be made in the main repo. Merging a pull request
requires the following steps to be completed before the pull request will
be merged:</p>
<ul>
<li>ideally, there is an issue that documents the problem or feature in depth.</li>
<li>code must have a reasonable amount of test coverage</li>
<li>tests must pass</li>
<li>PR needs be reviewed and approved</li>
</ul>
<p>Once these steps are completed the PR will be merged by a code owner.
We're using the pull request <code>assignee</code> feature to track who is responsible
for the lifecycle of the PR: review, merging, ping on inactivity, close.
We close pull requests or issues if there is no response from the author for
a period of time. Feel free to reopen if you want to get back on it.</p>
<h3 id="triggering-e2e-tests">Triggering e2e tests</h3>
<p>We have an extensive set of e2e tests that test the integration with <em>real</em> cloud provider APIs.
Maintainers must trigger these kind of tests manually for PRs that come from forked repositories. These tests run inside a <code>kind</code> cluster in the GitHub Actions runner:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>/ok-to-test sha=xxxxxx
</code></pre></div>
<h4 id="executing-e2e-tests-locally">Executing e2e tests locally</h4>
<p>You have to prepare your shell environment with the necessary variables so the e2e test
runner knows what credentials to use. See <code>e2e/run.sh</code> for the variables that are passed in.
If you e.g. want to test AWS integration make sure set all <code>AWS_*</code> variables mentioned
in that file.</p>
<p>Use <a href="https://onsi.github.io/ginkgo/#spec-labels">ginkgo labels</a> to select the tests
you want to execute. You have to specify <code>!managed</code> to ensure that you do not
run managed tests.</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>make test.e2e GINKGO_LABELS=&#39;gcp&amp;&amp;!managed&#39;
</code></pre></div>
<h4 id="managed-kubernetes-e2e-tests">Managed Kubernetes e2e tests</h4>
<p>There's another suite of e2e tests that integrate with managed Kubernetes offerings.
They create real infrastructure at a cloud provider and deploy the controller
into that environment.
This is necessary to test the authentication integration
(<a href="https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/workload-identity">GCP Workload Identity</a>,
<a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/iam-roles-for-service-accounts.html">EKS IRSA</a>...).</p>
<p>These tests are time intensive (~20-45min) and must be triggered manually by
a maintainer when a particular provider or authentication mechanism was changed:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>/ok-to-test-managed sha=xxxxxx provider=aws
# or
/ok-to-test-managed sha=xxxxxx provider=gcp
</code></pre></div>
<p>Both tests can run in parallel. Once started they add a dynamic GitHub check <code>integration-managed-(gcp|aws)</code> to the PR that triggered the test.</p>
<h3 id="executing-managed-kubernetes-e2e-tests-locally">Executing Managed Kubernetes e2e tests locally</h3>
<p>You have to prepare your shell environment with the necessary variables so the e2e
test runner knows what credentials to use. See <code>.github/workflows/e2e-managed.yml</code>
for the variables that are passed in. If you e.g. want to test AWS integration make
sure set all variables containing <code>AWS_*</code> and <code>TF_VAR_AWS_*</code> mentioned in that file.</p>
<p>Then execute <code>tf.apply.aws</code> or <code>tf.apply.gcp</code> to create the infrastructure.</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>make tf.apply.aws
</code></pre></div>
<p>Then run the <code>managed</code> testsuite. You will need push permissions to the external-secrets ghcr repository. You can set <code>IMAGE_NAME</code> to control which image registry is used to store the controller and e2e test images in.</p>
<p>You also have to setup a proper Kubeconfig so the e2e test pod gets deployed into the managed cluster.</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>aws eks update-kubeconfig --name ${AWS_CLUSTER_NAME}
or
gcloud container clusters get-credentials ${GCP_GKE_CLUSTER} --region europe-west1-b
</code></pre></div>
<p>Use <a href="https://onsi.github.io/ginkgo/#spec-labels">ginkgo labels</a> to select the tests
you want to execute.</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code># you may have to set IMAGE_NAME=docker.io/your-user/external-secrets
make test.e2e.managed GINKGO_LABELS=&#39;gcp&#39;
</code></pre></div>
<h2 id="proposal-process">Proposal Process</h2>
<p>Before we introduce significant changes to the project we want to gather feedback
from the community to ensure that we progress in the right direction before we
develop and release big changes. Significant changes include for example:</p>
<ul>
<li>creating new custom resources</li>
<li>proposing breaking changes</li>
<li>changing the behavior of the controller significantly</li>
</ul>
<p>Please create a document in the <code>design/</code> directory based on the template <code>000-template.md</code>
and fill in your proposal. Open a pull request in draft mode and request feedback. Once the proposal is accepted and the pull request is merged we can create work packages and proceed with the implementation.</p>
<h2 id="release-planning">Release Planning</h2>
<p>We have a <a href="https://github.com/orgs/external-secrets/projects/2/views/1">GitHub Project Board</a> where we organize issues on a high level. We group issues by milestone. Once all issues of a given milestone are closed we should prepare a new feature release. Issues of the next milestone have priority over other issues - but that does not mean that no one is allowed to start working on them.</p>
<p>Issues must be <em>manually</em> added to that board (at least for now, see <a href="https://github.com/github/roadmap/issues/286">GH Roadmap</a>). Milestones must be assigned manually as well. If no milestone is assigned it is basically a backlog item. It is the responsibility of the maintainers to:</p>
<ol>
<li>assign new issues to the GH Project</li>
<li>add a milestone if needed</li>
<li>add appropriate labels</li>
</ol>
<p>If you would like to raise the priority of an issue for whatever reason feel free to comment on the issue or ping a maintainer.</p>
<h2 id="support-questions">Support &amp; Questions</h2>
<p>Providing support to end users is an important and difficult task.
We have three different channels through which support questions arise:</p>
<ol>
<li>Kubernetes Slack <a href="https://kubernetes.slack.com/archives/C017BF84G2Y">#external-secrets</a></li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/discussions">GitHub Discussions</a></li>
<li>GitHub Issues</li>
</ol>
<p>We use labels to identify GitHub Issues. Specifically for managing support cases we use the following labels to identify the state a support case is in:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>triage/needs-information</code>: Indicates an issue needs more information in order to work on it.</li>
<li><code>triage/not-reproducible</code>: Indicates an issue can not be reproduced as described.</li>
<li><code>triage/support</code>: Indicates an issue that is a support question.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="cutting-releases">Cutting Releases</h2>
<p>The external-secrets project is released on a as-needed basis. Feel free to open a issue to request a release. Details on how to cut a release can be found in the <a href="../release/">release</a> page.</p>
