Release Process

Release!

Here's how we tag and build a new release of OneBody:

1. Update the VERSION file in the root of the repo with the new version number.

2. Update the CHANGELOG.md file in the root of the repo with a broad overview of features and bug fixes, and (if applicable) any release-specific upgrade instructions. (I usually use git log previous..HEAD --oneline to see list of all changes.)

3. Commit with the message "Release x.y.z" (where x.y.z is the version number).

4. Tag the release:

   git tag x.y.z -m "Release x.y.z"

5. Push to GitHub:

   git push
   git push --tags

6. Point the "stable" tag to the latest tag:

   git tag -d stable
   git push origin :stable
   git tag stable
   git push --tags

7. Update the release on GitHub with changes you put in CHANGELOG.md:

8. Build Debian/Ubuntu package:

   ssh root@cube.71m.us
   ./build_onebody_nightly
   rsync -avz onebody/build/deb/out/ root@tripoli.71m.us:~/debs/

   ssh root@tripoli.71m.us
   reprepro -b /var/repositories/ubuntu/stable includedeb trusty ~/debs/ubuntu-14.04/*.deb
   reprepro -b /var/repositories/ubuntu/stable includedeb xenial ~/debs/ubuntu-16.04/*.deb
   reprepro -b /var/repositories/debian/stable includedeb jessie ~/debs/debian-8/*.deb

9. Build the OVF:

   cd build
   rm -rf output-virtualbox-iso
   packer build -on-error=abort -only=virtualbox-iso packer.json
   cd output-virtualbox-iso
   zip onebody-x.y.z-1.zip onebody-disk001.vmdk onebody.ovf
   rsync -avzP --partial *.zip root@church.io:/var/www/statics/church.io/downloads/onebody/virtual-appliance/
   cd ..

10. Build the AMI:

    AWS_ACCESS_KEY=your-access-key \
    AWS_SECRET_KEY=your-access-secret \
    packer build -only=amazon-ebs -var 'version=x.y.z' packer.json

    (Replace x.y.z with the current version number.)

    Log into the Amazon web console here and make both of the resulting AMIs "public".

    Copy the AMI identifiers and update the Amazon AMI wiki page.

11. Update the latest version number on the following wiki pages:

    • Manual Installation

12. Announce on:

    • Twitter
    • Google Group
    • Slack topic (optional)

13. Update VERSION file with next version + -pre, e.g.:

    x.y.z-pre
    

    ...and commit to master.
