# Issue Policy | ||
|
||
The FiftyOne Issue Policy outlines the categories of FiftyOne GitHub issues and | ||
discusses the guidelines & processes associated with each type of issue. | ||
|
||
Before filing an issue, make sure to | ||
[search for related issues](https://github.com/voxel51/fiftyone/issues) and | ||
check if they address yours. | ||
|
||
## Issue Categories | ||
|
||
Our policy is that GitHub issues fall into one of the following categories: | ||
|
||
1. Feature Requests | ||
2. Bug reports | ||
3. Documentation fixes | ||
4. Installation issues | ||
|
||
Each category has its own GitHub issue template. Please do not delete the issue | ||
template unless you are certain your issue is outside its scope. | ||
|
||
### Feature Requests | ||
|
||
#### Guidelines | ||
|
||
Feature requests that are likely to be accepted: | ||
|
||
- Are minimal in scope (note that it's always easier to add additional | ||
functionality later than remove functionality) | ||
- Are extensible (e.g. if adding an integration with an ML framework, is it | ||
possible to add similar integrations with other frameworks?) | ||
- Have user impact & value that justifies the maintenance burden of | ||
supporting the feature moving forwards. The | ||
[JQuery contributor guide](https://contribute.jquery.org/open-source/#contributing-something-new) | ||
has an excellent discussion on this. | ||
|
||
#### Lifecycle | ||
|
||
Feature requests typically go through the following lifecycle: | ||
|
||
1. A feature request GitHub Issue is submitted, which contains a high-level | ||
description of the proposal and its motivation. We encourage requesters to | ||
provide an overview of the feature's implementation as well, if possible. | ||
2. The [issue is triaged](ISSUE_TRIAGE.rst) to identify whether more | ||
information is needed from the author, give an indication of priority, and | ||
route feature requests to appropriate committers. | ||
3. The feature request is discussed with a committer. The committer will | ||
provide input on the implementation overview or ask for a more detailed | ||
design, if applicable. | ||
4. After discussion & agreement on the feature request and its implementation, | ||
an implementation owner is identified. | ||
5. The implementation owner begins developing the feature and ultimately files | ||
associated pull requests against the FiftyOne Repository or packages the | ||
feature as an FiftyOne Plugin. | ||
|
||
### Bug reports | ||
|
||
Bug reports typically go through the following lifecycle: | ||
|
||
1. A bug report GitHub Issue is submitted, which contains a high-level | ||
description of the bug and information required to reproduce it. | ||
2. The [bug report is triaged](ISSUE_TRIAGE.rst) to identify whether more | ||
information is needed from the author, give an indication of priority, and | ||
route to request appropriate committers. | ||
3. An FiftyOne committer reproduces the bug and provides feedback about how to | ||
implement a fix. | ||
4. After an approach has been agreed upon, an owner for the fix is identified. | ||
FiftyOne committers may choose to adopt ownership of severe bugs to ensure a | ||
timely fix. | ||
5. The fix owner begins implementing the fix and ultimately files associated | ||
pull requests. | ||
|
||
### Documentation fixes | ||
|
||
Documentation issues typically go through the following lifecycle: | ||
|
||
1. A documentation GitHub Issue is submitted, which contains a description of | ||
the issue and its location(s) in the FiftyOne documentation. | ||
2. The [issue is triaged](ISSUE_TRIAGE.rst) to identify whether more | ||
information is needed from the author, give an indication of priority, and | ||
route the request to appropriate committers. | ||
3. An FiftyOne committer confirms the documentation issue and provides feedback | ||
about how to implement a fix. | ||
4. After an approach has been agreed upon, an owner for the fix is identified. | ||
FiftyOne committers may choose to adopt ownership of severe documentation | ||
issues to ensure a timely fix. | ||
5. The fix owner begins implementing the fix and ultimately files associated | ||
pull requests. | ||
|
||
### Installation issues | ||
|
||
Installation issues typically go through the following lifecycle: | ||
|
||
1. An installation GitHub Issue is submitted, which contains a description of | ||
the issue and the platforms its affects. | ||
2. The [issue is triaged](ISSUE_TRIAGE.rst) to identify whether more | ||
information is needed from the author, give an indication of priority, and | ||
route the issue to appropriate committers. | ||
3. An FiftyOne committer confirms the installation issue and provides feedback | ||
about how to implement a fix. | ||
4. After an approach has been agreed upon, an owner for the fix is identified. | ||
FiftyOne committers may choose to adopt ownership of severe installation | ||
issues to ensure a timely fix. | ||
5. The fix owner begins implementing the fix and ultimately files associated | ||
pull requests. |
