Releasing

Prerequisite: Sonatype (Maven Central) Account

Create an account on the Sonatype issues site. Ask an existing publisher to open an issue requesting publishing permissions for backfila projects.

Prerequisite: GPG Keys

Generate a GPG key (RSA, 4096 bit, 3650 day) expiry, or use an existing one. You should leave the password empty for this key.

$ gpg --full-generate-key

Upload the GPG keys to public servers:

$ gpg --list-keys --keyid-format LONG
/Users/johnbarber/.gnupg/pubring.kbx
------------------------------
pub   rsa4096/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 2019-07-16 [SC] [expires: 2029-07-13]
      YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
uid           [ultimate] John Barber <[email protected]>
sub   rsa4096/ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ 2019-07-16 [E] [expires: 2029-07-13]

$ gpg --send-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Prerequisite: Gradle Properties

Define publishing properties in ~/.gradle/gradle.properties:

signing.keyId=1A2345F8
signing.password=
signing.secretKeyRingFile=/Users/jwilson/.gnupg/secring.gpg

signing.keyId is the GPG key's ID. Get it with this:

$ gpg --list-keys --keyid-format SHORT

signing.password is the password for this key. This might be empty!

signing.secretKeyRingFile is the absolute path for secring.gpg. You may need to export this file manually with the following command where XXXXXXXX is the keyId above:

$ gpg --keyring secring.gpg --export-secret-key XXXXXXXX > ~/.gnupg/secring.gpg

Cutting a Release

  1. Update CHANGELOG.md.

  2. Set versions:

    export RELEASE_VERSION=X.Y.Z
export NEXT_VERSION=X.Y.Z-SNAPSHOT

  3. Set environment variables with your Sonatype credentials.

    export SONATYPE_NEXUS_USERNAME=johnbarber
export SONATYPE_NEXUS_PASSWORD=`pbpaste`

  4. Update, build, and upload:

    sed -i "" \
  "s/VERSION_NAME=.*/VERSION_NAME=$RELEASE_VERSION/g" \
  gradle.properties
sed -i "" \
  "s/\"backfila:\([^\:]*\):[^\"]*\"/\"backfila:\1:$RELEASE_VERSION\"/g" \
  `find . -name "README.md"`
miskweb ci-build -e
gradle clean uploadArchives

  5. Visit Sonatype Nexus to promote (close then release) the artifact. Or drop it if there is a problem!

  6. Tag the release, prepare for the next one, and push to GitHub.

    git commit -am "Prepare for release $RELEASE_VERSION."
git tag -a backfila-$RELEASE_VERSION -m "Version $RELEASE_VERSION"
sed -i "" \
  "s/VERSION_NAME=.*/VERSION_NAME=$NEXT_VERSION/g" \
  gradle.properties
git commit -am "Prepare next development version."
git push && git push --tags
