json4s Contributers' Guide

Issues

  • Questions should be posted to stackoverflow.com
  • Please describe about your issue in detail (verison, situation, examples)
  • We may close your issue when we have no plan to take action right now. We appreciate your understanding.

Pull Requests

  • Pull requests basically should be sent toward "3.5" branch
  • Source/binary compatibility always must be kept as far as possible
  • Prefer creating scala source code for each class/object/trait (of course, except for sealed trait)
  • json4s build checks binary compatibility by using MiMa for maintenance releases (e.g. 3.3.x).
