Ahmet Altay commented on BEAM-9388:
-----------------------------------
Adding more details:
We can add a Beam setup for running github actions:
- One of these actions is to take Beam repo master branch at a recent commit;
build wheel files; Optionally publish them to a temporary GCS location.
- It is possible to manually trigger the same job on the release branch. This
version needs to stage its output to a given GCS location. Signing is out of
scope.
- Action will produce the same wheel set as
(https://github.com/apache/beam-wheels) (e.g. different python version
linux/mac) and an additional wheel version for windows.
- Same github action also produces a tarball of the sdk
- https://github.com/apache/beam-wheels - is deprecated. (i.e. removed from
release notes, https://github.com/apache/beam-wheels is deleted or has a readme
to not use it)
- Beam docs are updated to explain how to use this Github action.
> Consider using github actions for building python wheels and more (aka.
> Transition from Travis)

> github actions instead of travis to for building python wheels during
> releases. This will have the following advantages:
> - We will eliminate one repo. (If you don't know, we have
> https://github.com/apache/beam-wheels for the sole purpose of building wheels
> file.)
> - Workflow will be stored in the same repo. This will prevent bit rot that is
> only discovered at release times. (happened a few times, although usually
> easy to fix.)
> - github actions supports ubuntu, mac, windows environments. We could try to
> build wheels for windows as well. (Travis also supports the same environments
> but we only use linux and mac environments. Maybe there are other blockers
> for building wheels for Windows.)
> - We could do more, like daily python builds.
