# Release & Deployment Process # Release & Deployment Process
Please read the Working Process/Quickstart Guide in README.md
and the Development guidelines in CONTRIBUTING.md.
The release process of a new version of the extension The release process of a new version of the extension
shall be performed by the designated *Release Manager*. shall be performed by the designated *Release Manager*.
Note that we expect to gradually automate more of this process. ## Release steps
1. Make sure `develop` branch passes all the tests.
Having checked PR to be released it shall be 1. Merge `develop` into `master`
merged back into the `master` branch to prepare the new release. 1. Update the version number in `src/pg/crankshaft.control`.
1. Generate the next release files with this command:
The version number in `pg/cranckshaft.control` must first be updated. ```shell
To do so [Semantic Versioning 2.0](http://semver.org/) is in order.
Thew `NEWS.md` will be updated.
We now will explain the process for the case of backwards-compatible
releases (updating the minor or patch version numbers).
TODO: document the complex case of major releases.
The next command must be executed to produce the main installation
script for the new release, `release/cranckshaft--X.Y.Z.sql` and
also to copy the python package to `release/python/X.Y.Z/crankshaft`.
```
make release make release
``` ```
1. Generate an upgrade path from the previous to the next release by copying the generated release file. E.g:
```shell
cp release/cranckshaft--X.Y.Z.sql release/cranckshaft--A.B.C--X.Y.Z.sql
```
NOTE: you can rely on this thanks to the compatibility checks. TODO: automate this step [#94](https://github.com/CartoDB/crankshaft/issues/94)
1. Commit and push the generated files.
1. Tag the release:
```
git tag -a X.Y.Z -m "Release X.Y.Z"
git push origin X.Y.Z
```
1. Deploy and test in staging
Then, the release manager shall produce upgrade and downgrade scripts
to migrate to/from the previous release. In the case of minor/patch ## Some remarks
releases this simply consist in extracting the functions that have changed * Version numbers shall follow [Semantic Versioning 2.0](http://semver.org/).
and placing them in the proper `release/cranckshaft--X.Y.Z--A.B.C.sql` * CI tests will take care of **forward compatibility** of the extension at postgres level.
file. * **Major version changes** (breaking forward compatibility) are a major event and are out of the scope of this doc. They **shall be avoided as much as we can**.
* We will go forward, never backwards. **Generating upgrade paths automatically is easy** and we'll rely on the CI checks for that.
## Deploy commands
The new release can be deployed for staging/smoke tests with this command: The new release can be deployed for staging/smoke tests with this command:
```shell
```
sudo make deploy sudo make deploy
``` ```
This will copy the current 'X.Y.Z' released version of the extension to To install a specific version 'X.Y.Z' different from the default one:
PostgreSQL. The corresponding Python extension will be installed in a ```shell
virtual environment in `envs/X.Y.Z`.
It can be activated with:
```
source envs/X.Y.Z/bin/activate
```
But note that this is needed only for using the package directly;
the 'X.Y.Z' version of the extension will automatically use the
python package from this virtual environment.
The `sudo make deploy` operation can be also used for installing
the new version after it has been released.
To install a specific version 'X.Y.Z' different from the current one
(which must be present in `releases/`) you can:
```
sudo make deploy RELEASE_VERSION=X.Y.Z sudo make deploy RELEASE_VERSION=X.Y.Z
``` ```
TODO: testing procedure for the new release.
TODO: procedure for staging deployment.
TODO: procedure for merging to master, tagging and deploying
in production.
## Relevant release & deployment tasks available in the Makefile
```
* `make help` show a short description of the available targets
* `make release` will generate a new release (version number defined in
`src/pg/crankshaft.control`) into `release/`.
Intended for use by the release manager.
* `sudo make deploy` will install the current release X.Y.Z from the
`release/` files into PostgreSQL and a Python virtual environment
`envs/X.Y.Z`.
Intended for use by the release manager and deployment jobs.
* `sudo make deploy RELEASE_VERSION=X.Y.Z` will install specified version
previously generated in `release/`
into PostgreSQL and a Python virtual environment `envs/X.Y.Z`.
Intended for use by the release manager and deployment jobs.
