Treat commits that introduce new core modules with extra care.
|
||||
|
||||
Check if the module's name conflicts with an existing ecosystem module. If it
|
||||
does, choose a different name unless the module owner has agreed in writing to
|
||||
transfer it.
|
||||
New modules must only be added with the `node:` prefix.
|
||||
|
||||
If the new module name is free, register a placeholder in the module registry as
|
||||
soon as possible. Link to the pull request that introduces the new core module
|
||||
in the placeholder's `README`.
|
||||
When adding promises to an existing API, add `/promises`
|
||||
(`inspector/promises`, etc.). Apply the `semver-major` label to the addition.
|
||||
|
||||
If the new module name is free in npm, register
|
||||
a placeholder in the module registry as soon as possible. Link to the pull
|
||||
request that introduces the new core module in the placeholder's `README`.
|
||||
|
||||
If the module name is not free and the module is
|
||||
not widely used, contact the owner to see if they would be willing to transfer
|
||||
it to the project.
|
||||
|
||||
We register a placeholder without the `node:` prefix whenever
|
||||
possible to avoid confusion and typosquatting attacks.
