[CONF] OpenJPA > Apache Nexus Release Process (1.3.x-2.1.x) - DRAFT

[confluence]

Apache Nexus Release Process (1.3.x-2.1.x) - DRAFT Page added by Donald Woods We're starting to move our builds over to using the Apache Nexus repository (repository.apache.org) for releasing SNAPSHOT and release artifacts. More details on releasing artifacts and using Nexus can be found on the Maven website at - http://maven.apache.org/developers/release/apache-release.html Release Steps for OpenJPA 1.3.x - 2.1.x Environment setup for releasing artifacts (same for SNAPSHOTs and releases) - Increase the default Java heap available to Maven (required for Java SE 6) export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m" Use the latest Sun 1.6.0 JDK Use Maven 2.2.1 or later (2.2.1 is required for release signing fixes) Make sure the Release Setup steps have been performed. Prepare the source for release: Cleanup JIRA so the Fix Version in issues resolved since the last release includes this release version correctly. Also, transition any Resolved issues to the Closed state. Update the text files in a working copy of the openjpa-project subdir - Update the CHANGES.txt based on the Text release reports from JIRA. Update the RELEASE-NOTES.html based on the HTML release reports from JIRA. Review and update README.txt and BUILDING.txt if needed. Commit any changes back to svn - $ svn commit -m "updating files for release" Stage any Roadmap or Release landing pages on the wiki. Use "mvn apache-rat:check" to verify the source has the required headers before trying to release. Perform a full build with tests $ mvn clean install -Papache-release,docbook-profile Run the JPA 1.0 and JPA 2.0 TCKs to verify the latest code passes. Perform a full build and deploy the SNAPSHOT artifacts $ mvn clean deploy -Papache-release,docbook-profile -DskipTests Inspect the files in your local target directories to ensure: All jars and zips include: LICENSE and NOTICE files The NOTICE files cover all third-party included files (like XSD schemas) The LICENSE files include any third-party licenses (like XSD schemas) The openjpa and openjpa-all jars include the right packages. The openjpa source and release distribution files have the right content. All jars/zips/poms have .asc (PGP signature) and md5 files For new major releases (like 2.0.0 to 2.1.0) Create a sub-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. It also provides a future maintenance branch (like 2.0.x.) A branch can be made by running: $ mvn release:branch -DbranchName=2.0.x Checkout a clean copy of the trunk/branch to release using command line svn. Do not use Eclipse to do the checkout. The extra dot (.) files created by Eclipse throws off the rat:check processing and will get included in the source distribution. $ svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/2.0.x/ 2.0.1-rc1/ (Optional) Do a dry run of the release:prepare step. The dry run will not commit any changes back to SVN and gives you the opportunity to verify that the release process will complete as expected. You will be prompted for the following information : Release version - take the default - (default 2.0.1) SCM release tag - *DO NOT TAKE THE DEFAULT - (default openjpa-parent-2.0.1): : 2.0.1 New development version - take the default - (default 2.0.2-SNAPSHOT) optional if you have not specified a GPG passphrase in settings.xml you will be prompted for it. $ mvn -Papache-release release:prepare -DdryRun=true If you cancel a release:prepare before it updates the pom.xml versions, then use the release:clean goal to just remove the extra files that were created. Verify that the release process completed as expected The release plugin will create pom.xml.tag files which contain the changes that would have been committed to SVN. The only differences between pom.xml.tag and it's corresponding pom.xml file should be the version number. If other formatting changes have been made you should review the changes and then commit them - $ svn commit -m "fixing formatting for release" Assuming the .tag files look OK you may proceed and do any other validation you feel necessary. The following list may be helpful Check release.properties and make sure that the scm properties have the right version. Sometimes the scm location can be the previous version not the next version. verify signatures Verifying release signatures Once any failures or required updates have been committed to svn, rollback the release prepare files - $ mvn -Papache-release release:rollback Prepare the release Run the "release:prepare" step for real this time. You'll be prompted for the same version information and optionally your GPG passphrase again. Different arguments and steps are required as there are problems with the maven-jar-plugin and maven-release-plugin when using the test-jar goal. See http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-68 and http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-285. $ mvn release:prepare -Papache-release,docbook-profile,test-derbymem -DskipTests -DpreparationGoals="clean install" Backup (zip or tar) your local release candidate directory in case you need to rollback the release after the next step is performed. cd .. tar -czf 2.0.1-rc1.tar.gz 2.0.1-rc1/ cd 2.0.1-rc1 Perform the release This step will create a maven staging repository and site for use in testing and voting. You will be prompted for your repository.apache.org and people.apache.org password several times if you have not added server profiles to your settings.xml. See Release Setup for more information. $ mvn release:perform -Papache-release,docbook-profile,test-derbymem -Duser.name=<your_apache_uid> If your local OS userid doesn't match your Apache userid, then you'll have to also override the value provided by the OS to Maven for the site-deploy step to work. This is known to work for Linux, but not for Mac and unknown for Windows. The maven-release-plugin is configured with goals "deploy site site:deploy" and will deploy the site files to a staging-site directory on people.apache.org. Verify the release artifacts Verify the HTML links in staging-site/index.html are correct Verify the staged artifacts in the nexus repo https://repository.apache.org/index.html Enterprise --> Staging Staging tab --> Name column --> org.apache.openjpa Navigate through the artifact tree and make sure that all javadoc, sources, tests, jars, ... have .asc (GPG signature) and .md5 files. See http://people.apache.org/~henkp/repo/faq.html and http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html#openpgp-ascii-detach-sig Close the nexus staging repo https://repository.apache.org/index.html Enterprise --> Staging Staging tab --> Name column --> org.apache.openjpa Right click on the open staging repo (org.apache.openjpa-XXX) and select Close. Put the release candidate up for a vote Create a VOTE email thread on d...@openjpa to record votes as replies, like - To: dev@ Subject: [VOTE] Apache OpenJPA 2.0.1 Release Candidate I've created a 2.0.1 release candidate, with the following artifacts up for a vote: SVN source tag (rXXXXXX): https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/tags/2.0.1/ Maven staging repo: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheopenjpa-XXX/ Source release: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheopenjpa-XXX/org/apache/openjpa/openjpa-parent/2.0.1/openjpa-parent-2.0.1-source-release.zip Javadoc staging site: http://people.apache.org/~dwoods/openjpa/2.0.1/staging-site/apidocs/ PGP release keys (signed using D018E6B1): https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openjpa/KEYS Vote will be open for 72 hours. [ ] +1 approve [ ] +0 no opinion [ ] -1 disapprove (and reason why) Create a DISCUSS email thread on dev@ for any vote questions, like - To: dev@ Subject: [DISCUSS] Apache OpenJPA 2.0.1 Release Candidate Discussion thread for vote on 2.0.1 release candidate, with SVN source tag (rXXXXXX). For more information on the release process, checkout - http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html Some of the things to check before voting are: - does "mvn apache-rat:check" pass on the source - can you build the contents of source-release.zip and svn tag - do all of the staged jars/zips contain the required LICENSE and NOTICE files - are all of the staged jars signed and the signature verifiable - is the signing key in the project's KEYS file and on a public server - does the release pass the TCK Perform a review of the release and cast your vote. See the following for more details on Apache releases - http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html A -1 vote does not necessarily mean that the vote must be redone, however it is usually a good idea to rollback the release if a -1 vote is received. See - Recovering from a vetoed release After the vote has been open for at least 72 hours, has at least three +1 PMC votes and no -1 votes, then post the results to the vote thread by - reply to the initial email and prepend to the original subject - [RESULTS] Include a list of everyone who voted +1, 0 or -1.
