## Checklist for making a release:
|
|
|
|
### Requirements
|
|
- [ ] Lauchpad (Ubuntu One) account
|
|
- [ ] gnupg key (has to be version 1, gpg2 won't work) for `your-name@ethereum.org` created and uploaded
|
|
- [ ] Readthedocs account, access to the Solidity project
|
|
- [ ] Write access to https://github.com/ethereum/homebrew-ethereum
|
|
|
|
### Pre-release
|
|
- [ ] Ensure that a Github project exists for the release.
|
|
- [ ] Check that all issues and pull requests from the Github project to be released are merged to ``develop``.
|
|
|
|
### Changelog
|
|
- [ ] Sort the changelog entries alphabetically and correct any errors you notice.
|
|
- [ ] Create a commit on a new branch that updates the ``Changelog`` to include a release date.
|
|
- [ ] Run ``./scripts/tests.sh`` to update the bug list.
|
|
- [ ] Create a pull request and wait for the tests, merge it.
|
|
|
|
### Create the Release
|
|
- [ ] Create Github release page: https://github.com/ethereum/solidity/releases/new
|
|
- [ ] On the release page, select the ``release`` branch as new target and set tag to the new version (e.g. `v0.5.4`) (make sure you only `SAVE DRAFT` instead of `PUBLISH RELEASE` before the actual release)
|
|
- [ ] Thank voluntary contributors in the Github release page (use ``git shortlog -s -n -e origin/release..origin/develop``).
|
|
- [ ] Create a pull request from ``develop`` to ``release``, wait for the tests, then merge it.
|
|
- [ ] Make a final check that there are no platform-dependency issues in the ``solidity-test-bytecode`` repository.
|
|
- [ ] Wait for the tests for the commit on ``release``, create a release in Github, creating the tag (click the `PUBLISH RELEASE` button on the release page.)
|
|
- [ ] Wait for the CI runs on the tag itself (travis and appveyor should push artifacts onto the Github release page).
|
|
- [ ] Run ``scripts/create_source_tarball.sh`` while being on the tag to create the source tarball. Make sure to create ``prerelease.txt`` before: (``echo -n > prerelease.txt``). This will create the tarball in a directory called ``upload``.
|
|
- [ ] Take the tarball from the upload directory (its name should be ``solidity_x.x.x.tar.gz``, otherwise ``prerelease.txt`` was missing in the step before) and upload the source tarball to the release page.
|
|
|
|
### PPA
|
|
- [ ] Change ``scripts/release_ppa.sh`` to match your key's email and key id.
|
|
- [ ] Run ``scripts/release_ppa.sh release`` to create the PPA release (you need the relevant openssl key).
|
|
- [ ] Wait for the ``~ethereum/ubuntu/ethereum-static`` PPA build to be finished and published for *all platforms*. SERIOUSLY: DO NOT PROCEED EARLIER!!! *After* the static builds are *published*, copy the static package to the ``~ethereum/ubuntu/ethereum`` PPA for the destination series ``Trusty`` and ``Xenial`` while selecting ``Copy existing binaries``.
|
|
- [ ] Check that the Docker release was pushed to Docker Hub (this still seems to have problems, run ``./scripts/docker_deploy_manual.sh v0.x.x``).
|
|
|
|
### Homebrew
|
|
- [ ] Update the version and the hash (``sha256sum solidity_x.x.x.tar.gz``) in https://github.com/ethereum/homebrew-ethereum/blob/master/solidity.rb
|
|
|
|
### Documentation
|
|
- [ ] Build the new version on https://readthedocs.org/projects/solidity/ (select `latest` on the bottom of the page and click `BUILD`)
|
|
- [ ] In the admin panel, select `Versions` in the menu and set the default version to the released one.
|
|
|
|
### Release solc-js
|
|
- [ ] Increment the version number, create a pull request for that, merge it after tests succeeded.
|
|
- [ ] Run ``npm publish`` in the updated ``solc-js`` repository.
|
|
- [ ] Make sure to push the tag ``npm publish`` created with ``git push --tags``.
|
|
|
|
### Post-release
|
|
- [ ] Create a commit to increase the version number on ``develop`` in ``CMakeLists.txt`` and add a new skeleton changelog entry.
|
|
- [ ] Merge ``release`` back into ``develop``.
|
|
- [ ] Announce on Twitter and Reddit.
|
|
- [ ] Lean back, wait for bug reports and repeat from step 1 :)
