Welcome! This is the home of the [Scala 2](https://www.scala-lang.org) standard library, compiler, and language spec. For Scala 3, visit [scala/scala3](https://github.com/scala/scala3). # How to contribute Issues and bug reports for Scala 2 are located in [scala/bug](https://github.com/scala/bug). That tracker is also where new contributors may find issues to work on: [good first issues](https://github.com/scala/bug/labels/good%20first%20issue), [help wanted](https://github.com/scala/bug/labels/help%20wanted). For coordinating broader efforts, we also use the [scala/scala-dev tracker](https://github.com/scala/scala-dev/issues). To contribute here, please open a [pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/#fork--pull) from your fork of this repository. Be aware that we can't accept additions to the standard library, only modifications to existing code. Binary compatibility forbids adding new public classes or public methods. Additions are made to [scala-library-next](https://github.com/scala/scala-library-next) instead. We require that you sign the [Scala CLA](https://contribute.akka.io/contribute/cla/scala) before we can merge any of your work, to protect Scala's future as open source software. The general workflow is as follows. 1. Find/file an issue in scala/bug (or submit a well-documented PR right away!). 2. Fork the scala/scala repo. 3. Push your changes to a branch in your forked repo. For coding guidelines, go [here](https://github.com/scala/scala#coding-guidelines). 4. Submit a pull request to scala/scala from your forked repo. For more information on building and developing the core of Scala, read the rest of this README, especially for [setting up your machine](https://github.com/scala/scala#get-ready-to-contribute)! # Get in touch! In order to get in touch with other Scala contributors, join the \#scala-contributors channel on the [Scala Discord](https://discord.com/invite/scala) chat, or post on [contributors.scala-lang.org](https://contributors.scala-lang.org) (Discourse).

We periodically merge forward from 2.12.x to 2.13.x. Most changes should target 2.13.x, as 2.12.x is now under minimal maintenance. If your change is difficult to merge forward, you may be asked to also submit a separate PR targeting the newer branch. If your change is version-specific and shouldn't be merged forward, put `[nomerge]` in the PR name. If your change is a backport from a newer branch and thus doesn't need to be merged forward, put `[backport]` in the PR name. ## Choosing a branch Most changes should target 2.13.x. We are increasingly reluctant to target 2.12.x unless there is a special reason (e.g. if an especially bad bug is found, or if there is commercial sponsorship).

The baseline version is 8 for both 2.12.x and 2.13.x. It is almost always fine to use a later SDK (such as 17 or 21) for local development. CI will verify against the baseline version. - sbt MacOS and Linux work. Windows may work if you use Cygwin. Community help with keeping the build working on Windows and documenting any needed setup is appreciated. ## Tools we use We are grateful for the following OSS licenses: - [JProfiler Java profiler](https://www.ej-technologies.com/products/jprofiler/overview.html) - [YourKit Java Profiler](https://www.yourkit.com/java/profiler/) - [IntelliJ IDEA](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/) - [![Revved up by Develocity](https://img.shields.io/badge/Revved%20up%20by-Develocity-06A0CE?logo=Gradle&labelColor=02303A)](https://develocity.scala-lang.org) ## Build setup ### Basics During ordinary development, a new Scala build is built by the previously released version, known as the "reference compiler" or, slangily, as "STARR" (stable reference release). Building with STARR is sufficient for most kinds of changes. However, a full build of Scala is _bootstrapped_. Bootstrapping has two steps: first, build with STARR; then, build again using the freshly built compiler, leaving STARR behind. This guarantees that every Scala version can build itself. If you change the code generation part of the Scala compiler, your changes will only show up in the bytecode of the library and compiler after a bootstrap. Our CI does a bootstrapped build. **Bootstrapping locally**: To perform a bootstrap, run `restarrFull` within an sbt session. This will build and publish the Scala distribution to your local artifact repository and then switch sbt to use that version as its new `scalaVersion`. You may then revert back with `reload`. Note `restarrFull` will also write the STARR version to `buildcharacter.properties` so you can switch back to it with `restarr` without republishing. This will switch the sbt session to use the `build-restarr` and `target-restarr` directories instead of `build` and `target`, which avoids wiping out classfiles and incremental metadata. IntelliJ will continue to be configured to compile and run tests using the starr version in `versions.properties`. For history on how the current scheme was arrived at, see https://groups.google.com/d/topic/scala-internals/gp5JsM1E0Fo/discussion. **Building with fatal warnings**: To make warnings in the project fatal (i.e. turn them into errors), run `set Global / fatalWarnings := true` in sbt (replace `Global` with the name of a module—such as `reflect`—to only make warnings fatal for that module). To disable fatal warnings again, either `reload` sbt, or run `set Global / fatalWarnings := false` (again, replace `Global` with the name of a module if you only enabled fatal warnings for that module). CI always has fatal warnings enabled. ### Using the sbt build Once you've started an `sbt` session you can run one of the core commands: - `compile` compiles all sub-projects (library, reflect, compiler, scaladoc, etc) - `scala` / `scalac` run the REPL / compiler directly from sbt (accept options / arguments) - `enableOptimizer` reloads the build with the Scala optimizer enabled. Our releases are built this way. Enable this when working on compiler performance improvements. When the optimizer is enabled the build will be slower and incremental builds can be incorrect. - `setupPublishCore` runs `enableOptimizer` and configures a version number based on the current Git SHA. Often used as part of bootstrapping: `sbt setupPublishCore publishLocal && sbt -Dstarr.version= testAll` - `dist/mkBin` generates runner scripts (`scala`, `scalac`, etc) in `build/quick/bin` - `dist/mkPack` creates a build in the Scala distribution format in `build/pack` - `junit/test` runs the JUnit tests; `junit/testOnly *Foo` runs a subset - `scalacheck/test` runs scalacheck tests, use `testOnly` to run a subset - `partest` runs partest tests (accepts options, try `partest --help`) - `publishLocal` publishes a distribution locally (can be used as `scalaVersion` in other sbt projects) - Optionally `set baseVersionSuffix := "bin-abcd123-SNAPSHOT"` where `abcd123` is the git hash of the revision being published. You can also use something custom like `"bin-mypatch"`. This changes the version number from `2.13.2-SNAPSHOT` to something more stable (`2.13.2-bin-abcd123-SNAPSHOT`). - Note that the `-bin` string marks the version binary compatible. Using it in sbt will cause the `scalaBinaryVersion` to be `2.13`. If the version is not binary compatible, we recommend using `-pre`, e.g., `2.14.0-pre-abcd123-SNAPSHOT`. - Optionally `set ThisBuild / Compile / packageDoc / publishArtifact := false` to skip generating / publishing API docs (speeds up the process). If a command results in an error message like `a module is not authorized to depend on itself`, it may be that a global sbt plugin is causing a cyclical dependency. Try disabling global sbt plugins (perhaps by temporarily commenting them out in `~/.sbt/1.0/plugins/plugins.sbt`). #### Sandbox We recommend keeping local test files in the `sandbox` directory which is listed in the `.gitignore` of the Scala repo. #### Incremental compilation Note that sbt's incremental compilation is often too coarse for the Scala compiler codebase and re-compiles too many files, resulting in long build times (check [sbt#1104](https://github.com/sbt/sbt/issues/1104) for progress on that front). In the meantime you can: - Use IntelliJ IDEA for incremental compiles (see [IDE Setup](#ide-setup) below) - its incremental compiler is a bit less conservative, but usually correct. ### IDE setup We suggest using IntelliJ IDEA (see [src/intellij/README.md](src/intellij/README.md)). [Metals](https://scalameta.org/metals/) may also work, but we don't yet have instructions or sample configuration for that. A pull request in this area would be exceedingly welcome. In the meantime, we are collecting guidance at [scala/scala-dev#668](https://github.com/scala/scala-dev/issues/668). In order to use IntelliJ's incremental compiler: - run `dist/mkBin` in sbt to get a build and the runner scripts in `build/quick/bin` - run "Build" - "Make Project" in IntelliJ Now you can edit and build in IntelliJ and use the scripts (compiler, REPL) to directly test your changes. You can also run the `scala`, `scalac` and `partest` commands in sbt. Enable "Ant mode" (explained above) to prevent sbt's incremental compiler from re-compiling (too many) files before each `partest` invocation. # Coding guidelines Our guidelines for contributing are explained in [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md). It contains useful information on our coding standards, testing, documentation, how we use git and GitHub and how to get your code reviewed. You may also want to check out the following resources: - The ["Scala Hacker Guide"](https://scala-lang.org/contribute/hacker-guide.html) covers some of the same ground as this README, but in greater detail and in a more tutorial style, using a running example. - [Scala documentation site](https://docs.scala-lang.org) # Scala CI [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.com/scala/scala.svg?branch=2.13.x)](https://travis-ci.com/scala/scala) Once you submit a PR your commits will be automatically tested by the Scala CI. Our CI setup is always evolving. See [scala/scala-dev#751](https://github.com/scala/scala-dev/issues/751) for more details on how things currently work and how we expect they might change. If you see a spurious failure on Jenkins, you can post `/rebuild` as a PR comment. The [scabot README](https://github.com/scala/scabot) lists all available commands. If you'd like to test your patch before having everything polished for review, you can have Travis CI build your branch (make sure you have a fork and have Travis CI enabled for branch builds on it first, and then push your branch). Also feel free to submit a draft PR. In case your draft branch contains a large number of commits (that you didn't clean up / squash yet for review), consider adding `[ci: last-only]` to the PR title. That way only the last commit will be tested, saving some energy and CI-resources. Note that inactive draft PRs will be closed eventually, which does not mean the change is being rejected. CI performs a compiler bootstrap. The first task, `validatePublishCore`, publishes a build of your commit to the temporary repository https://scala-ci.typesafe.com/artifactory/scala-pr-validation-snapshots. Note that this build is not yet bootstrapped, its bytecode is built using the current STARR. The version number is `2.13.2-bin-abcd123-SNAPSHOT` where `abcd123` is the commit hash. For binary incompatible builds, the version number is `2.14.0-pre-abcd123-SNAPSHOT`. You can use Scala builds in the validation repository locally by adding a resolver and specifying the corresponding `scalaVersion`: ``` $ sbt > set resolvers += "pr" at "https://scala-ci.typesafe.com/artifactory/scala-pr-validation-snapshots/" > set scalaVersion := "2.13.17-bin-abcd123-SNAPSHOT" > console ``` ## "Nightly" builds The Scala CI publishes these to https://scala-ci.typesafe.com/artifactory/scala-integration/ . Using a nightly build in sbt and other tools is explained on this [doc page](https://docs.scala-lang.org/overviews/core/nightlies.html). Although we casually refer to these as "nightly" builds, they aren't actually built nightly, but "mergely". That is to say, a build is published for every merged PR. ## Scala CI internals The Scala CI runs as a Jenkins instance on [scala-ci.typesafe.com](https://scala-ci.typesafe.com/), configured by a chef cookbook at [scala/scala-jenkins-infra](https://github.com/scala/scala-jenkins-infra). The build bot that watches PRs, triggers testing builds and applies the "reviewed" label after an LGTM comment is in the [scala/scabot](https://github.com/scala/scabot) repo. ## Community build The Scala community build is an important method for testing Scala releases. A community build can be launched for any Scala commit, even before the commit's PR has been merged. That commit is then used to build a large number of open-source projects from source and run their test suites. To request a community build run on your PR, just ask in a comment on the PR and a Scala team member (probably @SethTisue) will take care of it. ([details](https://github.com/scala/community-builds/wiki#can-i-run-it-against-a-pull-request-in-scalascala)) Community builds run on the Scala Jenkins instance. The jobs are named `..-integrate-community-build`. See the [scala/community-builds](https://github.com/scala/community-builds) repo.
