# Release & Deployment Process
|
|
|
|
Please read the Working Process/Quickstart Guide in [README.md](README.md)
|
|
and the Development guidelines in [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md).
|
|
|
|
The release process of a new version of the extension
|
|
shall be performed by the designated *Release Manager*.
|
|
|
|
Having checked PR to be released it shall be
|
|
merged back into the `master` branch to prepare the new release.
|
|
|
|
The version number in `pg/observatory.control` must first be updated.
|
|
To do so [Semantic Versioning 2.0](http://semver.org/) is in order.
|
|
|
|
Thew `NEWS.md` will be updated.
|
|
|
|
The next command must be executed to produce the main installation
|
|
script for the new release, `release/observatory--X.Y.Z.sql`:
|
|
```
|
|
make release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The new release can be deployed for staging/smoke tests with this command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo make deploy
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will copy the current 'X.Y.Z' released version of the extension to
|
|
PostgreSQL.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 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/observatory.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.
|
|
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.
|
|
Intended to be used by the release manager and deployment jobs.
