== Before you contribute

To contribute, use GitHub Pull Requests, from your **own** fork.

git config --global user.email your.email@example.com
----

If you have not done so on this machine, you need to:

* Install Git and configure your GitHub access
* Install Java SDK 11+ (OpenJDK recommended)

=== IDE Config and Code Style

The WildFly Maven Plugin has a strictly enforced code style. Code formatting is done by the Eclipse code formatter,
using the config files found in the
https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly-dev-tools/tree/main/ide-config/src/main/resources[eclipse-code-formatter.xml]
file. By default, when you run `./mvnw install`, the code will be formatted automatically. When submitting a pull
request the CI build will fail if running the formatter results in any code changes, so it is recommended that you
always run a full Maven build before submitting a pull request.

If you want to run the formatting without doing a full build, you can run `mvn process-sources`.

==== Eclipse Setup

Open the *Preferences* window, and then navigate to _Java_ -> _Code Style_ -> _Formatter_. Click _Import_ and then
select the `eclipse-code-formatter.xml` downloaded from the above link or clone the repository and navigate to the file.

Next navigate to _Java_ -> _Code Style_ -> _Organize Imports_. Click _Import_ and select the `eclipse.importorder` file.

==== IDEA Setup

Install the https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/6546-adapter-for-eclipse-code-formatter/[Adapter for Eclipse Code Formatter].
See the https://github.com/krasa/EclipseCodeFormatter#instructions[documentation] on how to configure the plugin.
