1. Prior to creating the release candidate, the version setting in build.sbt should contain the -SNAPSHOT keyword. Create and merge a pull request to remove this keyword in preparation for a non-snapshot release.

      .

2. From within the root of the Daffodil directory, execute the scripts/release-candidate.sh script, providing the release candidate label (e.g. rc1), the path to the root of apache-dist directory created above, that path the the root of the daffodil site repository, your Apache login credentials (e.g. for https://id.apache.org), and your long format gpg key id (e.g. gpg --list-keys --keyid-format long KEYID). Run the script like so:
   
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   $ ./scripts/release-candidate.sh

   
   The credentials are used to publish the jars to the Apache staging repo. You will also be asked to enter the password for your private gpg key created above to sign the published jars and the zip/tars . This script will perform the following actions:
   
   

   1. Create a zip of the source
      
      
   2. Create tgz, zip, msi, and rpm of the helper binary
      
      
   3. Create sha256 and sha512 checksum and ASCII armored detached signatures of the above files
      
      
   4. Move the above files to the Apache dist dev directory
      
      
   5. Create javadoc and scaladoc and move to the daffodil site repository docs directory for this release
      
      
   6. Stages jars/poms to https://repository.apache.org
      
      
   7. Create a signed git tag
      
      
3. Once the script completes, you should verify all the files. This includes:
   
   
   1. Verify the checksums and signatures created in the Apache dist directories are correct
      
      
   2. Verify the staged jars/poms at https://repository.apache.org/ are correct. To do so, visit that url, login in the top right using id.apache.org credentials, select "Staging Repositories" on the left, and find the orgapachedaffodil-XXXX repository. Inspect the "Content" tab to make sure the appropriate jars are uploaded and appear valid.
      
      
   3. Verify the git tag is correct
      
      
   4. Verify the javadoc and scala docs in the daffodil site repository are correct
   
   If any of the above do not look correct you will need to rerun the release candidate script; however,  before doing so you must
    
   
   1. Delete the files in the Apache dist directory
       
   2. Drop the published jars/poms (at https://repository.apache.org - check the box for the staging repository just created and choose "Drop" at the top)
       
   3. Delete the git tag (git tag -d tagname).
        
   4. Delete the files in the daffodil site repository
       
   5. Fix whatever the issue is and repeat from step 2.
      
      
4. After verifying all is correct, commit the changes:
   
   

   1. Commit the files in Apache dist, for example:

      Code Block
      language bash
      svn add dev/incubator/daffodil/* svn ci -m "Stage Apache Daffodil (incubating) 2.0.0-rc1"

      
      

   2. Close the published Nexus files by visiting https://repository.apache.org, log in, find the release in "Staging Repositories" and select "Close".
      
      

   3. Push the git tag

      Code Block
      language bash
      git push asf v2.0.0-rc1
