Monday, 12:00 | Make sure the #One time setup steps have been performed
|
---|
Monday, 12:01 | Create a sub-branch off of the parent branch from which to make the release. Releasing from a branch will allow any cosmetic changes that need to be made for the release to be approved to be done without preventing other more disruptive advances in the trunk from potentially causing problems with the release. A branch can be made by running:
Code Block |
---|
|
svn copy -m "OpenJPA Release 1.0.1 branch" \
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/branches/1.0.x \
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/branches/1.0.1
|
|
---|
Monday, 12:02 | Check out a clean branch from which to build the release:
Code Block |
---|
|
svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/branches/1.0.1
cd 1.0.1
|
|
---|
Monday, 12:03 | Update all the POMs to remove "-SNAPSHOT" suffix from the version. If you have perl installed, you can easily do it with a single command:
Code Block |
---|
|
perl -pi -e "s;<version>1.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>;<version>1.0.1</version>;g" \
pom.xml */pom.xml */*/pom.xml
|
Update the <scm.dir> property in the top level pom.xml to the 1.0.1 release. \ Update the <developer> element in the top level pom.xml if new committers are added or removed. This applies to the 1.0.x branch only. |
---|
Monday, 12:10 | Verify that LICENSE.txt contains up to date licenses for any dependencies which are included in our distribution. Any jars or source code which is included with the OpenJPA distribution that is not covered by the Apache license must be noted in LICENSE.txt. Two examples of this are the persistence and orm dtds (licensed under the CDDL) and Serp. If any new non Apache dependencies have been introduced they will have to be covered here as well. If any discrepancies are found update LICENSE.txt and commit the changes.
|
---|
Monday, 12:15 | Update BUILDING.txt, CHANGES.txt and RELEASE-NOTES.html
- BUILDING.txt should be included in the source tarball and contains instructions on how to build OpenJPA. Prior to shipping a release we should ensure that those instructions are accurate.
- CHANGES.txt contains a text representation of all the changes which have been made since the preceding release. Most of the contents of this file can be generated through JIRA's release notes mechanism here
- RELEASE-NOTES.html contains general information on the OpenJPA project as well as an html version of the changes since the preceding version. The html change log may also be generated via JIRA.
|
---|
|
Monday, 12:20 | Commit the POM changes
Code Block |
---|
|
svn commit -m "Updated to version 1.0.1 for the release"
|
|
---|
Monday, 12:21 | Perform an initial build and install it in the local repository (this step is only required because of an open bug with Maven's javadoc plugin):
Code Block |
---|
|
mvn clean install -Dtest=false
|
|
---|
Monday, 12:23 | Now build the release locally, which will build and test, run the Apache Release Audit Tool to verify license headers, generate the javadoc and docbook PDF and HTML, run through the JPA TCK, build the source and binariy assemblies in target/site/downloads/, and sign the release files.
Code Block |
---|
|
export MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx1000m
mvn --batch-mode deploy site \
-Ptck-profile,examples-profile,license-verify-profile,javadoc-profile,docbook-profile,sign-release \
-Djava14.jar=${JAVA_HOME}/../../1.4/Classes/classes.jar \
-Dtck.zip=${HOME}/.m2/privaterepos/jpa-1_0b-tck.zip
|
Note |
---|
This operation will also sign the release files with the gpg utility using the <username>@apache.org key. If your code signing key is under a different address, specify it by appending the following argument to the command above: -Dopenjpa.release.keyAlias=mysigningalias@somedomain.org |
Note |
---|
The java14.jar path should be changed to the local install path for the JDK 1.4 rt.jar so that JDK 1.4 verification can take place. |
Note |
---|
The tck.zip path should be changed to the local install path to the JPA TCK so that the TCK can be run against the release. If you are not licensed to access the TCK, remove the tck-profile profile and -Dtck.zip property from the command. Ask someone who has access to run the TCK for you. |
Note |
---|
The examples-profile has problem running automatically in this maven build task. You will need to run the examples manually. Run the maven command without the examples-profile , then perform the following steps to run the example: Code Block |
---|
mkdir openjpa-integration\examples\target\examples
unzip target\site\downloads\apache-openjpa-1.0.1-binary.zip -d openjpa-integration\examples\target\examples
cd openjpa-integration\examples\target\examples\apache-openjpa-1.0.1\examples\hellojpa
ant
cd ..\relations
ant
cd ..\reversemapping
ant
|
|
|
---|
Monday, 13:00 | Verify the signatures:
Code Block |
---|
|
gpg --multifile --verify target/site/downloads/*.asc
|
|
---|
Monday, 13:01 | Upload the release candidate to http://openjpa.apache.org/builds/1.0.1/downloads/:
Code Block |
---|
|
mvn site:deploy
|
|
---|
Monday, 15:00 | Start a vote for the release on the dev@openjpa.apache.org mailing list. Votes made by committers and members of the OpenJPA project are considered binding for this vote. For an example of the mail, see this archived 1.0.0 vote |
---|
Tuesday, Wednesday | While waiting for the vote to complete, perform whatever manual review and testing on the release you deem appropriate. |
---|
Thursday, 15:00 | If the vote is successful after 3 days tally the votes in an email to dev@openjpa.apache.org, like this one.
|
---|
Thursday, 15:10 | Make the OpenJPA assemblies available to the Apache mirroring system by copying them over on people.apache.org:
Code Block |
---|
|
ssh people.apache.org
cp -r /www/openjpa.apache.org/builds/1.0.1/downloads/* /www/www.apache.org/dist/openjpa/1.0.1
chgrp -R openjpa /www/www.apache.org/dist/openjpa/1.0.1
chmod -R g+w /www/www.apache.org/dist/openjpa/1.0.1
|
|
---|
Thursday, 15:15 | Now that the release is locked down, convert the writeable 1.0.1 branch to a (du jure) read-only tag:
Code Block |
---|
|
svn mv -m "OpenJPA Release 1.0.1 tag" \
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/branches/1.0.1 \
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/tags/1.0.1
|
|
---|
Thursday, 15:16 | Check out the parent branch and bump up the release number to be the next snapshot version:
Code Block |
---|
|
svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/branches/1.0.x
cd 1.0.x
perl -pi -e "s;<version>1.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>;<version>1.0.2-SNAPSHOT</version>;g" \
pom.xml */pom.xml */*/pom.xml
svn commit -m "Updating version in branch to 1.0.2-SNAPSHOT"
|
|
---|
Thursday, 15:20 | Update the http://cwiki.apache.org/openjpa/downloads.html page with links to the download mirrors, using the existing entries as templates. Note |
---|
All artifacts (apache-openjpa-1.0.1-binary.zip and apache-openjpa-1.0.1-source.zip) must link to the mirrors, but signatures (apache-openjpa-1.0.1-binary.zip.asc and apache-openjpa-1.0.1-source.zip.asc) must not link to mirrors. |
|
---|
Thursday, 15:30 | The documentation on the server-side must manually be extracted on people.apache.org, and the links at http://openjpa.apache.org/documentation.html need to be updated with the new versions and the "latest" documentation symbolic links need to be updated:
Code Block |
---|
|
cd /www/openjpa.apache.org/builds/1.0.1/
unzip downloads/apache-openjpa-1.0.1-binary.zip
rm /www/openjpa.apache.org/docs/latest
ln -fvs ../builds/1.0.1/apache-openjpa-1.0.1/docs/ /www/openjpa.apache.org/docs/latest
|
Then point the links on http://openjpa.apache.org/documentation.html to:
|
---|
|
Thursday, 15:45 | Merge the staged maven2 repository jars to with the official repository to rsync. This is currently a difficult process that requires the maven-staging-plugin, which much be built from source. The process looks something like this (executed in the root of your local OpenJPA checkout):
Code Block |
---|
|
svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/plugins/trunk/maven-stage-plugin/ \
/tmp/maven-stage-plugin
mvn -f /tmp/maven-stage-plugin/pom.xml clean install
find . \
-name m2-repository -not -path "*openjpa-project*" \
-exec mvn -f /tmp/maven-stage-plugin/pom.xml \
stage:copy -Dsource=file://{} \
-Dtarget=scp://people.apache.org/www/people.apache.org/repo/m2-ibiblio-rsync-repository \
-Dversion=1.0.1 \;
|
Warning |
---|
This process requires Maven 2.0.5. It is currently quite delicate and error-prone. Once the maven-stage-plugin is released, it should be possible to make it more automated. |
|
---|
Thursday, 16:00 | Update the JIRA versions page to mark the version as "released", and set the date to the date that the release was approved. You may also need to make a new release entry for the subsequent release. |
---|
Friday, 16:00 | After the mirrors have had time to update (24 hours to be on the safe side), make a news announcement on the OpenJPA wiki. Note |
---|
Once the news item is made, it won't show up on the front page unless you make some minor edit to the containing page (e.g., adding a newline somewhere). |
|
---|
Friday, 16:05 | Make an announcement about the release on the users@openjpa.apache.org list (and, for major releases, on the announce@apache.org list as per the Apache Announcement Mailing Lists page). The announcement might look something like this. |
---|
Friday, 16:10 | Make an announcement for the freshmeat.net OpenJPA project (optional) |
---|
Friday, 17:00 | Have a beer and enjoy your weekend while the world's grateful programmers revel in yet another high-quality release of Apache OpenJPA! |
