  1. Follow the release order of the spreadsheet plan
  2. Some projects need pom.xml dependency version properties to be updated prior to release (e.g. fcrepo-camel-toolbox). This should be documented starting with 4.4.1.fcrepo4-vagrant must have its 'install_scripts/fedora_camel_toolbox.sh' and 'install_scripts/config' scripts updated with non-SNAPSHOT non-LATEST version. 

Variables Used

These variables will be used in the examples that follow.  The exact values of $ORG, $REPO, $CURR and $NEXT will vary depending on which module and version  is being released.

...

If release:clean fails, you may need to revert the RC commit with git revert HEAD.  If the parent snapshot is not available, build an old version of fcrepo4 fcrepo to populate it locally.

Resolve dependencies and set main versions to $CURR and dev versions to $NEXT

Github Release - part 2

  • Go to https://github.com/fcrepo4fcrepo/$REPO/releases/tag/fcrepo-$CURR

  • Click Edit tag, and update title to "Release $CURR"
  • Attach fcrepo-webapp-$CURR binaries and checksums that have been published to Maven Central to the Github release
  • Build the fcrepo-webapp-$CURR-jetty-console.jar for the release using

    Code Block
    mvn clean install -Pone-click -pl fcrepo-webapp


  • Create checksums for the fcrepo-webapp-$CURR-jetty-console and attach the binary and checksums to the Github release.
    • Note: The checksum files should be of the format "[checksum] [filename]" (MacOSX's md5 requires the use of the -r argument to produce the correct format. I.e. md5 -r fcrepo-webapp-5.0.2-jetty-console.jar >> fcrepo-webapp-5.0.2-jetty-console.jar.md5).

      Code Block
      jarPath=fcrepo-webapp/target/fcrepo-webapp-$CURR-jetty-console.jar
      md5 -r ${jarPath} > ${jarPath}.md5
      shasum ${jarPath}> ${jarPath}.sha1


  • Click Publish Release

...

Code Block
mvn site-deploy -DskipTests

fcrepo4 fcrepo pages will be visible at http://docs.fcrepo.org/site/$CURR/$REPO/

Other module pages will be located at:  $ORG.github.io/$REPO/site/$CURR/fcrepo/$REPO

For fcrepo4fcrepo/fcrepo4 fcrepo and fcrepo4fcrepo-exts/fcrepo-camel, manually add links to the current releases.  The easiest way to do this is to search for an old version number and copy/update for the current release.

Push Release Branch to Maintenance

...

The release branch has changes made since code freeze. It also contains the update to the version numbers for future development.

...

Ensure that your commit history matches the release branch's commit history, except for the two additional commits.
 

  1. Changing from SNAPSHOT version to release version. Something like [maven-release-plugin] prepare release $REPO-$CURR
  2. Changing from release version to next development version. Something like [maven-release-plugin] prepare for next development iteration

...



If this appears correct, you can push your release branch on to the maintenance branch.
