Contributing Guidelines

Thanks for contributing to SmartStack! If you're opening a new PR, please ask for a merge into our pull_requests branch -- not master. This will allow us avoid a back-and-forth by quickly accepting your PR and then making minor changes or doing testing before merging into master.

Writing Checks

We welcome additional service checks into the core of nerve. However, your checks must follow a few guidelines or they will not be accepted:

  • be sure to respect timeouts; checks that do not time-out will not be accepted
  • do NOT shell out; this becomes very expensive when done frequently
  • use well-tested, stable, core libraries whenever possible
