Creating a release
-
github actions and azure pipelines are green (Usually the case these days) for the release branch 0-19, 0-20, etc
-
Update the version in system.nim
-
Update the changelog (put the release date, copy it to e.g.
changelog_0_20_0.md
) -
Nightlies now build the binaries for us: https://github.com/nim-lang/nightlies/releases
-
Ensure nightly builds exist
-
DO NOT Update csources anymore, it's frozen forever.
-
Check out the $VERSION_HASH part of the URL from https://github.com/nim-lang/nightlies/releases
-
ssh username@servername
-
run
nimrelease/nimrelease all $NIM_VER $VERSION_HASH
, for example,nimrelease/nimrelease all 1.0.4 2019-11-27-version-1-0-c8998c4
(The nimrelease program can be found here: https://github.com/Araq/nimrelease )
- Tag the release, e.g.
git tag -am "Version 0.15.0" v0.15.0
- Push the tag:
git push origin [tagname]
- Create a new blog post in
_drafts
titled:version-<ver>-released.md
where<ver>
is the version without any dots, e.g.0180
for0.18.0
. - When ready to release:
- move the blog post into
_posts
, making sure to append the current date to its filename:2017-09-31-title.md
. - modify config.yml's
version
key to the new version -
git commit
- TIP: Here is a real-life example of a commit that signifies a release: https://github.com/nim-lang/website/commit/6f95916dee1212dcf5465d74dcff14e01f714503. The draft blog post was created in earlier commits, but hopefully it's pretty easy to figure out how it was made.
-
TIP2: You can see what a draft post looks like by running
jekyll serve --drafts
inside the website'sjekyll
directory.
-
git push live master
(thelive
remote is a strict secret)
- move the blog post into
- Notifying people about problems in release notes: https://github.com/nim-lang/website/commit/9dcf1e2de155c197f7aa680e71d3c0ee6ae9b890
