This is a small refactor of our workflow to test out goreleaser, a yaml
based tool for building, packaging, and releasing go binaries on
multiple platforms. It supports building binaries for to most of the platforms we
care about, including linux and macos, and also supports publishing
those binaries automatically as releases in Github, homebrew, snap, and
even apt / deb.
If this trial goes well, I think we should eventually replace the entire
release workflow with goreleaser. For now, this test is more tightly
scoped to only automated the MacOS release process, since that is the
one we have the most issues with. This PRi / commit:
- Builds darwin-amd64 and darwin-arm64 binaries of lotus, lotus-miner,
and lotus-worker
- Packages them into a universal darwin binary
- Publishes those to a release in Github based on the current tag
- Uses the binaries in the release to auto-publish and updated homebrew
configuration to filecoin-project/homebrew-lotus
- Does a `dry-run` build to produce a snapshot on release branches with
no tag
- Manually generate and upload checksums after goreleaser
jq is already installed now in either a newer version of CircleCI's MacOS VMs or in a previous CI step.
I ran a failing macos job with ssh enabled, and inspected '/usr/local/bin' and found found the following output
lrwxr-xr-x 1 distiller admin 23 Jun 22 14:50 jq -> ../Cellar/jq/1.6/bin/jq
the existing symlink causes the 'Install jq' job to fail.
removing this job should resolve the issue
