- An ASP.net web server (supporting .NET 4.5+)
- A small database deployed with the web site (Default is using LocalDb. Note: that LocalDb is not working on Azure and you need to provide your own connection string during SharpCLABot setup)
The purpose of a CLA is to ensure that the guardian of a project's outputs has the necessary ownership or grants of rights over all contributions to allow them to distribute under the chosen licence. Wikipedia
You can see it in action here (and test it yourself on our playground!)
A new contributor is opening a pull-request on your repository that is being watched by SharpCLABot:
SharpCLABot is replying that this contributor has not yet signed the CLA for the project, and invite the contributor to sign it:
The contributor go to the signing website provided by SharpCLABot and fill-out the form to sign the CLA:
The contributor has just signed the CLA and is redirected to its pull request with a comment acknowledge from SharpCLABot:
Deploy this project to a website supporting ASP.net with .NET4.5+.
On the first connection, SharpCLABot will guide you to setup your online electronic form.
