============================
So You Want to Contribute...
============================
For general information on contributing to OpenStack, check out the
`contributor guide <https://docs.openstack.org/contributors/>`_ to get started.
It covers all the basics that are common to all OpenStack projects: the
accounts you need, the basics of interacting with our Gerrit review system,
how we communicate as a community, etc.
Below will cover the more project specific information you need to get started
with Manila (Shared File System service).

See the ``CONTRIBUTING.rst`` file in each code repository for more
information about contributing to that specific deliverable. Additionally,
you should look over the docs links above; most components have helpful
developer information specific to that deliverable.
Manila and its associated projects follow a coordinated release alongside
other OpenStack projects. Development cycles are code named. See the
`OpenStack Releases website`_ for names and schedules of the current, past
and future development cycles.
Communication
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
IRC
---
The team uses `IRC <https://docs.openstack.org/contributors/common/irc.html>`_
extensively for communication and coordination of project activities. The
IRC channel is ``#openstack-manila`` on Freenode. Contributors work in various
timezones across the world; so many of them run IRC Bouncers and appear to be
always online. If you ping someone, or raise a question on the IRC channel,
someone will get back to you when they are back on their computer.
Additionally, the IRC channel is logged, so if you ask a question
when no one is around, you can `check the log
<http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/irclogs/%23openstack-manila/>`_
to see if it has been answered.
Team Meetings
-------------
We host a one-hour IRC based community meeting every Thursday at 1500
UTC on ``#openstack-meeting-alt`` channel. See the `OpenStack meetings page
<http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/#Manila_Team_Meeting>`_ for the most
up-to-date meeting information and for downloading the ICS file to integrate
this slot with your calendar. The community meeting is a good opportunity to
gather the attention of multiple contributors synchronously. If you wish to
do so, add a meeting topic along with your IRC nick to the
`Meeting agenda <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Manila/Meetings>`_.
Mailing List
------------
In addition to IRC, the team uses the `OpenStack Discuss Mailing List`_
for development discussions. This list is meant for communication
about all things developing OpenStack; so we also use this list to engage with
contributors across projects, and make any release cycle announcements.
Since it is a wide distribution list, the use of subject line tags is
encouraged to make sure you reach the right people. Prefix the
subject line with ``[manila]`` when sending email that concern Manila on
this list.
Other Communication Avenues
---------------------------
Contributors gather at least once per release at the `OpenDev Project Team
Gathering <https://www.openstack.org/ptg>`_ to discuss plans for an upcoming
development cycle. This is usually where developers pool ideas and
brainstorm features and bug fixes. We have had both virtual, and in-person
Project Technical Gathering events in the past. Before every such event, we
gather opinions from the community via IRC Meetings and the Mailing list on
planning these Project Technical Gatherings.
We make extensive use of `Etherpads <https://etherpad.opendev.org>`_. You can
find some of them that the team used in the past `in the project Wiki
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Manila/Etherpads>`_. To share code
snippets or logs, we use `PasteBin <http://paste.openstack.org>`_.
.. _contacting-the-core-team:
Contacting the Core Team
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When you contribute patches, your change will need to be approved by one or
more `maintainers (collectively known as the "Core Team")
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Manila#People>`_.
We're always looking for more maintainers! If you're looking to help
maintain Manila, express your interest to the existing core team. We have
mentored many individuals for one or more development cycles and added them to
the core team.
Any new core reviewer needs to be nominated to the team by an existing core
reviewer by making a proposal on `OpenStack Discuss Mailing List`_. Other
maintainers and contributors can then express their approval or disapproval
by responding to the proposal. If there is a decision, the project team lead
will add the concerned individual to the core reviewers team. An example
proposal is `here.
<http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2020-February/012677.html>`_
New Feature Planning
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you'd like to propose a new feature, do so by `creating a blueprint
on Launchpad. <https://blueprints.launchpad.net/manila>`_ For significant
changes we might require a design specification.
Feature changes that need a specification include:
--------------------------------------------------
- Adding new API methods
- Substantially modifying the behavior of existing API methods
- Adding a new database resource or modifying existing resources
- Modifying a share back end driver interface, thereby affecting all share
back end drivers
What doesn't need a design specification:
-----------------------------------------
- Making trivial (backwards compatible) changes to the behavior of an
existing API method. Examples include adding a new field to the response
schema of an existing method, or introducing a new query parameter. See
:doc:`api_microversion_dev` on how Manila APIs are versioned.
- Adding new share back end drivers or modifying share drivers, without
affecting the share back end driver interface
- Adding or changing tests
After filing a blueprint, if you're in doubt whether to create a design
specification, contact the maintainers.
Design specifications are tracked in the `Manila
Specifications <https://opendev.org/openstack/manila-specs>`_ repository and
are published on the `OpenStack Project Specifications website.
<https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/manila-specs/>`_ Refer to the
`specification template
<https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/manila-specs/specs/template.html>`_
to structure your design spec.
Specifications and new features have deadlines. Usually, specifications for
an upcoming release are frozen midway into the release development
cycle. To determine the exact deadlines, see the published release calendars
by navigating to the specific release from the `OpenStack releases website`_.
Task Tracking
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- We track our bugs in Launchpad:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/manila
If you're looking for some smaller, easier work item to pick up and get
started on, search for the 'low-hanging-fruit' tag
- We track future features as blueprints on Launchpad:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/manila
- Unimplemented specifications are tracked here:
https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/manila-specs/#unimplemented-specs
These specifications need a new owner. If you're interested to pick them
up and drive them to completion, you can update the corresponding blueprint
and get in touch with the project maintainers for help
Reporting a Bug
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You found an issue and want to make sure we are aware of it? You can do so on
`Launchpad <https://bugs.launchpad.net/manila>`_.
Getting Your Patch Merged
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When you submit your change through Gerrit, a number of automated Continuous
Integration tests are run on your change. A change must receive a +1 vote
from the `OpenStack CI system <https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/status>`_
in order for it to be merge-worthy. If these tests are failing and you can't
determine why, contact the maintainers.
See the :doc:`manila-review-policy` to understand our code review
conventions. Generally, reviewers look at new code submissions pro-actively;
if you do not have sufficient attention to your change, or are looking for
help, do not hesitate to jump into the team's IRC channel, or bring our
attention to your issue during a community meeting. The core team would
prefer to have an open discussion instead of a one-on-one/private chat.
Project Team Lead Duties
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A `project team lead <https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/ptl.html>`_
is elected from the project contributors each cycle. Manila Project specific
responsibilities for a lead are listed in the :doc:`project-team-lead`.

Manila Project Team Lead guide
==============================
A `project team lead <https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/ptl.html>`_
for Manila is elected from the project contributors. A candidate for PTL
needn't be a core reviewer on the team, but, must be a contributor,
and be familiar with the project to lead the project through
its release process. If you would like to be a core reviewer begin by
:ref:`contacting-the-core-team`. All the responsibilities below help us in
maintaining the project. A project team lead can perform any of these or
delegate tasks to other contributors.
General Responsibilities
------------------------
* Ensure manila meetings have a chair
* https://opendev.org/opendev/irc-meetings/src/branch/master/meetings/manila-team-meeting.yaml
* Update the team people wiki
* https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Manila#People
Release cycle activities
------------------------
* Get acquainted with the release schedule and set Project specific
milestones in the `OpenStack Releases repository
<https://opendev.org/openstack/releases>`_
* Example: https://releases.openstack.org/victoria/schedule.html
* Ensure the Manila `Cross Project Liaisons
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/CrossProjectLiaisons>`_ are aware of
their duties and are plugged into the respective areas
* Acknowledge `community wide cycle goals
<https://governance.openstack.org/tc/goals/#community-goals>`_ and find
leaders and coordinate with the goal liaisons
* Plan team activities such as:
* ``Documentation day/s`` to groom documentation bugs and re-write
release cycle docs
* ``Bug Triage day/s`` to ensure the bug backlog is well groomed
* ``Bug Squash day/s`` to close bugs
* ``Collaborative Review meeting/s`` to perform a high-touch review of a code
submission over a synchronous call
* Milestone driven work:
* ``Milestone-1``:
- Request a release for the python-manilaclient and manila-ui
- Retarget any bugs whose fixes missed Milestone-1
* ``Milestone-2``:
- Retarget any bugs whose fixes missed Milestone-2
- Create a review priority etherpad and share it with the community
and have reviewers sign up
* ``Milestone-3``:
- Groom the release notes for python-manilaclient and add a 'prelude'
section describing the most important changes in the release
- Request a final cycle release for python-manilaclient
- Retarget any bugs whose fixes missed Milestone-3
- Grant/Deny any Feature Freeze Exception Requests
- Update task trackers for Community Wide Goals
- Write the cycle-highlights in marketing-friendly sentences
and propose to the openstack/releases repo. Usually based on reno
prelude but made more readable and friendly
* Example: https://review.opendev.org/717801/
- Create the launchpad series and milestones for the next cycle in
manila, python-manilaclient and manila-ui. Examples:
* manila: https://launchpad.net/manila/ussuri
* python-manilaclient: https://launchpad.net/python-manilaclient/ussuri
* manila-ui: https://launchpad.net/manila-ui/ussuri
* ``Before RC-1``:
- Groom the release notes for manila-ui and add a 'prelude'
section describing the most important changes in the release
- Request a final cycle release for manila-ui
- Groom the release notes for manila, add a 'prelude' section
describing the most important changes in the release
- Mark bugs as {release}-rc-potential bugs in launchpad, ensure they
are targeted and addressed by RC
* ``RC-1``:
- Request a RC-1 release for manila
- Request a final cycle tagged release for manila-tempest-plugin
- Ensure all blueprints for the release have been marked "Implemented"
or are re-targeted
* ``After RC-1``:
- Close the currently active series on Launchpad for manila,
python-manilaclient and manila-ui and set the "Development Focus"
to the next release. Alternatively, you can switch this on the
series page by setting the next release to “active development”
- Set the last series status in each of these projects to “current
stable branch release”
- Set the previous release's series status to “supported”
- Move any Unimplemented specs in `the specs repo
<https://opendev.org/openstack/manila-specs>`_ to "Unimplemented"
- Create a new specs directory in the specs repo for the next
cycle so people can start proposing new specs
* You should NOT plan to have more than one RC. RC2 should only happen
if there was a mistake and something was missed for RC-1, or a new regression
was discovered
* Periodically during the release:
* ``Every Week``:
- Coordinate the weekly Community Meeting agenda
- Coordinate with the Bug Czar and ensure bugs are properly triaged
- Check whether any bug-fixes must be back-ported to older stable
releases
* ``Every 3 weeks``:
- Ensure stable branch releases are proposed in case there are any
release worthy changes. If there are only documentation or CI/test
related fixes, no release for that branch is necessary
* To request a release of any manila deliverable:
* ``git checkout {branch-to-release-from}``
* ``git log --no-merges {last tag}..``
* Examine commits that will go into the release and use it to decide
whether the release is a major, minor, or revision bump according to
semver
* Then, propose the release with version according to semver x.y.z
* X - backward-incompatible changes
* Y - features
* Z - bug fixes
* Use the ``new-release`` command to generate the release
* https://releases.openstack.org/reference/using.html#using-new-release-command
Project Team Gathering
----------------------
* Create etherpads for PTG planning, cycle retrospective and PTG discussions
and announce the Planning etherpad to the community members via the Manila
community meeting as well as the `OpenStack Discuss Mailing List`
* `Example PTG Planning Etherpad <https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/manila-shanghai-ptg-planning>`_
* `Example Retrospective Etherpad <https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/manila-stein-retrospective>`_
* `Example PTG Discussions Etherpad <https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/manila-ptg-train>`_
* If the PTG is a physical event, gather an estimate of attendees and
request the OpenDev Foundation staff for appropriate meeting space. Ensure
the sessions are remote attendee friendly. Coordinate A/V logistics
* Set discussion schedule and find an owner to run each proposed discussion at
the PTG
* All sessions must be recorded, nominate note takers for each discussion
* Sign up for group photo at the PTG (if applicable)
* After the event, send PTG session summaries and the meeting recording to the
`OpenStack Discuss Mailing List`
