## How Can I Contribute?
6
+
7
+
### 1. Reporting Bugs
8
+
- Use the **Issues** tracker
9
+
- Use a clear title (e.g. "Crash when calling begin() with invalid pin")
10
+
- Describe the **exact steps** to reproduce
11
+
- Include your **board**, **IDE version**, **library version** and **relevant code snippet**
12
+
- Attach minimal complete example sketch if possible
13
+
14
+
### 2. Suggesting Enhancements / New Features
15
+
- Open an issue with the prefix **[Feature request]**
16
+
- Explain the use-case → what problem would this solve?
17
+
- Describe your ideal API / behavior (code examples are very helpful)
18
+
19
+
### 3. Submitting Code Changes (Pull Requests)
20
+
21
+
#### Small fixes (typos, comments, examples, small bug fixes)
22
+
→ Just open a pull request — no prior issue needed
23
+
24
+
#### Larger changes / new features
25
+
1. Open an issue first to discuss the idea
26
+
2. Get a rough 👍 from maintainer(s)
27
+
3. Fork the repo from 'dev' branch and create your branch (`fix/xxx`, `feature/yyy`, `docs/whatever`)
28
+
4. Make your changes
29
+
5. Update or add examples when appropriate
30
+
6. Add/update comments in code
31
+
7. Submit the pull request
32
+
33
+
### Pull Request Guidelines
34
+
35
+
-**One feature / fix = one pull request** (smaller PRs are easier & faster to review)
36
+
- Use descriptive commit messages
37
+
- Good: `Fix I2C timeout handling on ESP32`
38
+
- Bad: `update`
39
+
- Reference any related issue (`Fixes #123`, `Closes #89`, etc.)
40
+
- If you change public API, update README.md and library.properties
41
+
- New features should include an example sketch in `examples/`
42
+
43
+
## Coding Style
44
+
45
+
PLease follow the existing C++ style (per the .clang-format)
46
+
47
+
- 2 spaces indentation (no tabs)
48
+
-`camelCase` for functions and variables
49
+
-`UpperCamelCase` / `PascalCase` for class names
50
+
-`#define` constants in `ALL_CAPS`
51
+
- Keep lines < ~100 characters when reasonable
52
+
53
+
(But consistency with existing code is more important than strict rules)
54
+

For minor changes just submit your PR and I'll try to review it, but for anything more 'impactful' please open an Issue first and start a discussion. Is better to sound out what it is you want to achieve first, and try to come to a consensus on what the best approach is, especially when it impacts the structure or architecture of this codebase.

Here are some general principals you should try to adhere to:
94
94
* Keep it simple. Please, don't think like a high-level lang programmer. Think embedded, and keep code concise, without any unnecessary layers.
95
95
* No dynamic memory allocation, except during setup/begin functions.
96
96
* Use the same brace and indenting style that's in the core source modules. (A .clang-format is prob going to be added soon, but please do NOT retroactively re-format existing code. This just creates unnecessary diffs that make finding problems harder)
97
97
98
+
Help us prioritize! Please react with thumbs-up to issues/PRs you care about most. We look at reaction counts when planning work.

**Usage:**
429
+
-`get path.hash.mode`
430
+
-`set path.hash.mode <value>`
431
+
432
+
**Parameters:**
433
+
-`value`: Path hash size (0-2)
434
+
-`0`: 1 Byte hash size (256 unique ids)[64 max flood]
435
+
-`1`: 2 Byte hash size (65,536 unique ids)[32 max flood]
436
+
-`2`: 3 Byte hash size (16,777,216 unique ids)[21 max flood]
437
+
-`3`: DO NOT USE (Reserved)
438
+
439
+
**Default:**`0`
440
+
441
+
**Note:** the 'path.hash.mode' sets the low-level ID/hash encoding size used when the repeater adverts. This setting has no impact on what packet ID/hash size this repeater forwards, all sizes should be forwarded on firmware >= 1.14. This feature was added in firmware 1.14
442
+
443
+
**Temporary Note:** adverts with ID/hash sizes of 2 or 3 bytes may have limited flood propogation in your network while this feature is new as v1.13.0 firmware and older will drop packets with multibyte path ID/hashes as only 1-byte hashes are suppored. Consider your install base of firmware >=1.14 has reached a criticality for effective network flooding before implementing higher ID/hash sizes.

#### View or change this node's loop detection
448
+
**Usage:**
449
+
-`get loop.detect`
450
+
-`set loop.detect <state>`
451
+
452
+
**Parameters:**
453
+
-`state`:
454
+
-`off`: no loop detection is performed
455
+
-`minimal`: packets are dropped if repeater's ID/hash appears 4 or more times (1-byte), 2 or more (2-byte), 1 or more (3-byte)
456
+
-`moderate`: packets are dropped if repeater's ID/hash appears 2 or more times (1-byte), 1 or more (2-byte), 1 or more (3-byte)
457
+
-`strict`: packets are dropped if repeater's ID/hash appears 1 or more times (1-byte), 1 or more (2-byte), 1 or more (3-byte)
458
+
459
+
**Default:**`off`
460
+
461
+
**Note:** When it is enabled, repeaters will now reject flood packets which look like they are in a loop. This has been happening recently in some meshes when there is just a single 'bad' repeater firmware out there (prob some forked or custom firmware). If the payload is messed with, then forwarded, the same packet ends up causing a packet storm, repeated up to the max 64 hops. This feature was added in firmware 1.14
462
+
463
+
**Example:** If preference is `loop.detect minimal`, and a 1-byte path size packet is received, the repeater will see if its own ID/hash is already in the path. If it's already encoded 4 times, it will reject the packet. If the packet uses 2-byte path size, and repeater's own ID/hash is already encoded 2 times, it rejects. If the packet uses 3-byte path size, and the repeater's own ID/hash is already encoded 1 time, it rejects.
