# Triage resources
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This page collates common resources that maintainers can use to efficiently and consistently manage incoming issues and
|
|||
|
PRs.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Merge Checklist
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This list helps to ensure that PRs are in a good state before merging. Ideally it should be applied to the PR upon
|
|||
|
initial triage, so that the contributor can check items off prior to the reviewer digging in. Some items may not be
|
|||
|
relevant to every PR, and can be crossed out on a case-by-case basis.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* [ ] The target branch is [correct](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/contributing/code/#picking-the-right-version)
|
|||
|
* [ ] All commits are relevant to the change (e.g. no debug statements or arbitrary linting)
|
|||
|
* [ ] The commit messages follow [the contribution guidelines](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/contributing/code/#commit-messages)
|
|||
|
* [ ] The patch follows [the contribution guidelines](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/contributing/code/)
|
|||
|
* [ ] New features are covered with tests (back-end with unit tests, front-end with Behat)
|
|||
|
* [ ] Any relevant User Help/Developer documentation is updated; for impactful changes, information is added to the
|
|||
|
changelog for the intended release
|
|||
|
* [ ] CI is green
|
|||
|
* [ ] At least one peer reviewer approved; no outstanding changes requested
|
|||
|

## Canned Responses
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
These are optional templates that can be [saved for re-use in GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/github/writing-on-github/working-with-saved-replies),
|
|||
|
serving as a starting point for working through common scenarios on issues and pull requests. Explainers are provided
|
|||
|
below for each message to provide more context to affected contributors, and it often makes sense for the maintainer to
|
|||
|
expand upon the message with details specific to the given issue or PR.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Stale PR warning
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Explainer:** In order to minimise the backlog of PRs that need attention from the core team, we periodically check in
|
|||
|
on PRs that haven't seen any author activity for a month or more. We'll give you a heads up, and you'll have 2 weeks to
|
|||
|
progress the work or respond to any outstanding feedback.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
> This pull request hasn't had any activity for a while. Are you going to be doing further work on it, or would you
|
|||
|
> prefer to close it now?
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Stale PR closure
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Explainer:** If we don't hear back or see any changes within the 2 week timeframe, we'll close the PR out.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
> It seems like there's going to be no further activity on this pull request, so we’ve closed it for now. Please open a
|
|||
|
> new pull-request if you want to re-approach this work, or for anything else you think could be fixed or improved.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Enhancement Issue raised
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Explainer:** See the [linked documentation](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/contributing/issues_and_bugs/#feature-requests)
|
|||
|
for details.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
> Thanks for your suggestion! Just to let you know we're closing this feature request as GitHub issues are not the best
|
|||
|
> place to discuss potential enhancements. You can read more about this in the [contributing guide](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/contributing/issues_and_bugs/#feature-requests),
|
|||
|
> and you are welcome to raise new feature ideas on the [Silverstripe forum](https://forum.silverstripe.org/c/feature-ideas)
|
|||
|
> instead.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Closing a CMS 3 issue
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Explainer:** We immediately close issues that only affect CMS 3 (or CMS 3 versions of supported modules) unless they
|
|||
|
are found to have a critical impact, as this version is in limited support and will reach end-of-life in the near
|
|||
|
future.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
> Unfortunately [Silverstripe CMS 3 entered limited support in June 2018](https://www.silverstripe.org/blog/update-on-silverstripe-5-x/).
|
|||
|
> This means we'll only be fixing critical bugs and security issues for CMS 3 going forward.
|
|||
|
>
|
|||
|
> See the [Silverstripe CMS Roadmap](https://www.silverstripe.org/software/roadmap/) for more information on our support
|
|||
|
> commitments.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Complex enhancement/new feature that doesn't fit core
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Explainer:** We generally try to avoid major additions to the core codebase, as they increase the maintenance burden
|
|||
|
on the core team. Instead, we recommend pursuing major new features/enhancements as independent modules, which is
|
|||
|
possible in most cases due to the broad extensibility of the core APIs.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Examples of high-value features that are developed as independent modules include
|
|||
|
[dnadesign/silverstripe-elemental](https://github.com/dnadesign/silverstripe-elemental),
|
|||
|
[symbiote/silverstripe-gridfieldextensions](https://github.com/symbiote/silverstripe-gridfieldextensions),
|
|||
|
and [jonom/silverstripe-focuspoint](https://github.com/jonom/silverstripe-focuspoint).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
> Thanks for your work on this pull request. Unfortunately the core team isn't able to prioritise integrating and
|
|||
|
> supporting complex new features at this time, so we’ll need to close this now.
|
|||
|
>
|
|||
|
> If you’d like to take your idea further and share it with the community, we highly recommend turning your PR into an
|
|||
|
> open source module and posting about it in the appropriate community channels. See the docs on
|
|||
|
> [how to create a module](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/developer_guides/extending/modules/#create).
