Release HOWTO

The following document should be followed for anyone wishing to release Sitepod.

Update inc/Ontology.php

Ensure to update the PSNG_VERSION constant in inc/Ontology.php to the version you want to release. Note, this needs to contain semantic versioning e.g. 1.5.3

Create a Tag for the Release

Create a tag with the following command

git tag -a <VERSION> -m "Sitepod <VERSION>"

Push the tag to remote Github server

git push --tags

This should be it... new versions of Sitepod are automatically fetched from tags you create in your VCS repository.

Tag/version names should match 'X.Y.Z', or 'vX.Y.Z', with an optional suffix for RC, beta, alpha or patch versions. Here are a few examples of valid tag names:

  • 1.0.0
  • v1.0.0
  • 1.10.5-RC1
  • v4.4.4beta2
  • v2.0.0-alpha
  • v2.0.4-p1

Branches will automatically appear as "dev" versions that are easily installable by anyone that wants to try Sitepod's latest and greatest, but that does not mean you should not tag releases. The use of Semantic Versioning is strongly encouraged.

Conclusion

If all went well, you've successfully released Sitepod. Please announce the following release to the following channels

TO: opendev <opendev@jpl.nasa.gov>; podaac-all <podaac-all@jpl.nasa.gov>; opensource <opensource@jpl.nasa.gov>; opensource@lists.nasa.gov <opensource@lists.nasa.gov>; esdswg-search@lists.nasa.gov <esdswg-search@lists.nasa.gov>
