Releasing deegree

Checklist

Tasks do be done when publishing a release version of deegree:

Update GitHub pull requests

Tag every merged pull request with "bug", "enhancement" or "feature". Remove other tags such as "in progress" or "under review" and assign it to the target milestone. For PR which have been rejected by TMC add flag "invalid", "duplicate" or "wontfix" remove any milestone set. Comment on rejected pull request as described in pull request response templates.

Run Jenkins jobs

NOTE: You need to be logged in to Jenkins, otherwise the relevant actions are not available.

In order to avoid the need for manual rollbacks, always run the jobs as normal (non-release) jobs first and only to go on if these builds succeed:

  • 3.4: Link -> "Build with parameters" without release perform
  • 3.5: Link -> "Build with parameters" without release perform

If build worked fine, perform the actual release:

  • 3.4: Link -> "Build with parameters" and release perform enabled
  • 3.5 Link -> "Build with parameters" and release perform enabled

Cleaning up in case the release perform failed

Attention: If a release build fails, clean up Jenkins before continuing:

  • Log in to central.deegree.org via SSH. Become hudson: sudo su - hudson
  • Change to checkout directory: cd /home/hudson/hudson-builds/{Jenkins Job}/workspace
  • Check status: git status
  • Remove untracked files: git clean -fd
  • Revert changes: git reset --hard master (if commits have been made by release plugin, reset to specific commit)
  • Remove tag if necessary: git tag -d {Release tag}
  • Remove remote tag if necessary: git push origin/master :refs/tags/{Release tag}

Publish the handbook

Run build job: https://buildserver.deegree.org/view/misc/job/internal/job/publish-documentation with parameter RELEASE_VERSION=3.5.X

WORKAROUND: Login to central.deegree.org (ssh), then:

cd /var/www/download.deegree.org/documentation/
rm current
ln -s ./3.5.X ./current

NOTE: You need to exchange 3.5.X with the correct version.

Update homepage
