ReleaseManagement

The following are step by step instructions on how to package a release.

Building the Release Packages

Source Code

Step 1

Make sure the source builds and works locally, and the docs build with no errors

Step 2

Make sure the source passes Travis CI, OGC CITE tests and unit tests

Step 3

Create a release tag against master:

update desired branch with x.y.z in pygeoapi/__init__.py and docs/source/conf.py
update changelog information in debian/changelog
commit the above updates:

# in branch master
git commit -m 'update release version' pygeoapi/__init__.py docs/source/conf.py debian/changelog
git push origin master # or branch if releasing from a branch

Release tags are in the format x.y.z

If releasing from master:

git tag -a x.y.z -m 'tagging x.y.z'
git push --tags

If releasing from a branch:

git checkout x.y
git tag -a x.y.z -m 'tagging x.y.z'
git push --tags

Release to PyPI:

python3 setup.py sdist bdist_wheel --universal
twine upload dist/*

Step 4

Create Docker Image on DockerHub for release/tag (you'll need permission for that repo on DockerHub):

Go to pygeoapi DockerHub Builds Page.
Press the blue button "Configure Automated Builds"
Under "Build Rules" press the '+' button
In new build rule choose: Source Type tag and fill-in new tag x.y.z in Source and Docker Tag columns
Disable toggle Build Caching in last column
Press the button Save (Save and Build will build all tagged Images!)
Press the button Trigger Build
Inspect the build progress (may take up to 15 mins!) on builds

Step 5

Upgrade stable version of pygeoapi on demo.pygeoapi.io/stable. Not automated yet! Requires changes within the demo.pygeoapi.io GH repo and the demo server:

edit/commit/push docker-compose file: set new version tag x.y.z of image: geopython/pygeoapi: x.y.z
login with admin account on demo server demo.pygeoapi.io
cd git
pull changes on server: ./refresh-git.sh
no rebuild needed, only possible changes in local.config.yml if config-conventions have changed
restart:
- cd git/services/pygeoapi_stable
- restart: ./stop.shthen ./start.sh

Step 6

Update https://github.com/geopython/pygeoapi.io/blob/master/docs/download.md

Push updates

git commit -m 'update release' docs/download.md
git push origin master
mkdocs gh-deploy --force -m 'update release'

Step 7

Add the x.y.z documentation to readthedocs.org

go to https://readthedocs.org/projects/pygeoapi
under 'Build a version', select 'latest' and click 'Build'
this will cause readthedocs.org to sync release tags, new version will appear
go to https://readthedocs.org/projects/pygeoapi/versions
- find x.y.z
- click 'Active' and ensure visibility is set to 'Public'
- click 'Submit'

Step 8

Update mailing list:

The pygeoapi team announces the release of pygeoapi x.y.z.
