## Code of Conduct
This project follows the [Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md). By participating you agree to abide by its terms. Please report unacceptable behaviour to [info@tecnick.com](mailto:info@tecnick.com).

## Security Vulnerabilities
**Do not open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.**
Please follow the [Security Policy](SECURITY.md) and report them privately.
---
## Getting Started
### Requirements
- PHP **≥ 8.2**
- [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) v2
- `make`, `git`
- Optional: `rpmbuild` (RPM packaging), `dpkg-buildpackage` (DEB packaging)
### Local setup
```bash
git clone https://github.com/tecnickcom/tc-lib-pdf-page.git
cd tc-lib-pdf-page
make buildall
```
To verify everything is working after a change:
```bash
make qa
```
This runs linting, static analysis, and the full unit-test suite with coverage.
---
## Reporting a Bug
Before opening an issue:
1. **Check the [Security Policy](SECURITY.md)** — if the bug is a security vulnerability, do not file a public issue.
2. **Search [existing issues](https://github.com/tecnickcom/tc-lib-pdf-page/issues)** to avoid duplicates.
If no existing issue matches, [open a new one](https://github.com/tecnickcom/tc-lib-pdf-page/issues/new) and include:
- A **clear title and description** of the problem.
- The **library version** (`composer show tecnickcom/tc-lib-pdf-page`) and PHP version.
- A **minimal, self-contained reproduction** — a short PHP script or a failing PHPUnit test case is ideal.
- **Expected vs. actual behaviour** — what you expected to happen and what actually happened.
- Any relevant **stack trace or error output**.
The more precise and reproducible the report, the faster it can be triaged and fixed.
---
## Submitting a Bug Fix
1. [Fork the repository](https://github.com/tecnickcom/tc-lib-pdf-page/fork) and create a branch from `main`:
```bash
git checkout -b fix/short-description-of-bug
```
2. Make your changes, following the [Coding Standards](#coding-standards) below.
3. Add or update unit tests to cover the changes.
4. Run the full quality-assurance suite locally and ensure it passes:
```bash
make qa
```
5. Commit your changes (see [Commit Message Guidelines](#commit-message-guidelines)).
6. Open a pull request against `main` and fill in the PR template:
- Describe the problem and your solution.
- Reference the related issue number (e.g. `Fixes #123`).
---
## Proposing a New Feature
Before writing any code:
1. **Open a Feature Request** on [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/tecnickcom/tc-lib-pdf-page/issues/new) describing the use case and proposed API.
2. Wait for feedback from the maintainer. This avoids investing time in a direction that may not be accepted.
Once the feature is agreed upon, follow the same branch → code → test → PR workflow as for bug fixes, using a branch named `feature/short-description`.
---
## Development Workflow
The `Makefile` exposes all common development tasks:
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `make qa` | Run linting, static analysis, tests, and reports |
| `make test` | Run PHPUnit with code coverage |
| `make lint` | Check coding standards |
| `make format` | Auto-format the code |
| `make buildall` | Install dependencies, fix style, run QA, and build packages |
| `make clean` | Remove `vendor/` and `target/` directories |
| `make server` | Start the built-in PHP development server for the examples |
Run `make help` to see the full list of available targets.
---
## Coding Standards
- The codebase follows **PSR-12** for formatting.
- Run `make format` to auto-format the code.
- Run `make lint` to catch remaining issues.
- All source files live under `src/`, all tests under `test/`.
- Use strict types and explicit visibility on all class members.
- Avoid introducing new external dependencies without prior discussion.
---
## Testing
Tests are written with [PHPUnit](https://phpunit.de/) and live in `test/`.
```bash
# Run the full test suite with coverage
make test
# Run a specific test file
XDEBUG_MODE=coverage ./vendor/bin/phpunit test/HTMLTest.php
```
Requirements for contributions:
- Every bug fix must be accompanied by a regression test that fails before the fix and passes after.
- Every new feature must be accompanied by tests that cover both the happy path and edge cases.
Coverage reports are generated in `target/coverage/`.
---
## Pull Request Guidelines
- Target the `main` branch.
- Keep PRs focused — one fix or feature per PR.
- Ensure `make qa` passes locally before opening the PR.
- Do not bump the version number in your PR; that is handled by the maintainer at release time.
- Be responsive to review feedback; stale PRs may be closed after an extended period of inactivity.
---
## Commit Message Guidelines
Use concise, imperative-mood commit messages:
```
fix: correct path traversal in font loader
feat: add support for XYZ
test: add regression test for #123
docs: update CONTRIBUTING workflow
refactor: extract text measurement into helper
```
Prefix tags: `fix`, `feat`, `test`, `docs`, `refactor`, `chore`, `ci`.
Reference issues where relevant: `fix: correct X (closes #42)`.

## Questions?
If you have a question that is not covered here, feel free to open a [GitHub Discussion](https://github.com/tecnickcom/tc-lib-pdf-page/discussions) or contact the maintainer at [info@tecnick.com](mailto:info@tecnick.com).
