Thank you for your interest in contributing to Ruby OpenSSL!
This documentation provides an overview how you can contribute.
Bugs and feature requests are tracked on GitHub.
If you think you found a bug, file a ticket on GitHub. Please DO NOT report security issues here, there is a separate procedure which is described on "Security at ruby-lang.org".
When reporting a bug, please make sure you include the version of Ruby, the version of openssl gem, the version of the OpenSSL library, along with a sample file that illustrates the problem or link to repository or gem that is associated with the bug.
There is a number of unresolved issues and feature requests for openssl that need review. Before submitting a new ticket, it is recommended to check known issues and bugs.ruby-lang.org, the previous issue tracker.
Patches are also very welcome!
Please submit a pull request with your changes.
Make sure that your branch does:
- Have good commit messages
- Follow Ruby's coding style (DeveloperHowTo)
- Pass the test suite successfully (see "Testing")
- Add an entry to History.rdoc if necessary
We have a test suite. You can run it with the following three commands:
$ gem install rake-compiler test-unit
$ rake compile
$ rake test
Test cases are located under test/
directory.
After Ruby 2.3, ext/openssl
was converted into a "default gem", a library
which ships with standard Ruby builds but can be upgraded via RubyGems. This
means the development of this gem has migrated to a separate
repository and will be released independently.
The version included in the Ruby source tree (trunk branch) is synchronized with the latest release.
Bug fixes (including security fixes) will be made only for the version series included in a stable Ruby release.
If you discovered a security issue, please send us in private, using the security issue handling procedure for Ruby core.
You can either use HackerOne or send an email to [email protected].
Please see Security page on ruby-lang.org website for details.
Reported problems will be published after a fix is released.
Thanks for your contributions!
