# eslint-config-openstack
OpenStack has a set of style guidelines for clarity. OpenStack is a very large code base, spanning
dozens of git trees, with over a thousand developers contributing every 6 months. As such, common
style helps developers understand code in reviews, move between projects smoothly, and overall make
the code more maintainable.
Even though eslint permits overriding rules on a per-project basis, it should be the goal of every
project to stay as close to the common guidelines as possible.
## Installation
To add these rules to your project, follow these steps.
1. `npm install --save-dev eslint eslint-config-openstack`
2. Add `extends: "openstack"` to your `.eslintrc` yaml file. If your project is using ES2015, add
`extends: "openstack/es2015"` instead.
## Approval Policies
If you would like to contribute, please follow [OpenStack's contribution guidelines](https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/How_To_Contribute).
#### Rules only land with consensus
Patches that activate, deactivate, or modify rules, should only be merged if a consensus of
reviewers is reached. In this case, consensus means at least five positive votes (+1 or +2),
with no -1 votes. Cores may not override and/or ignore -1 votes.
#### Library upgrades require two cores
Patches that upgrade eslint only require two core approvers to land. These patches must add new
upstream rules in a deactivated state, and delete any deprecated rules.
#### Policy upgrades require all cores
Updates to policies and governance on this project require +2 votes from all direct cores on the
project. Core votes from the parent OpenStack QA project are optional.
#### Patches should be abandoned after a month of inactivity
Cores should attempt to keep the list of extant patches small and managable. As such, they should
talk to any author whose patch has failed to garner the necessary support, and has experienced
one month of inactivity. Reasonable notice should be given to the author before a patch is
abandoned.
