Narayana Release Process

modified by Paul Robinson in JBoss Transactions Development - View the full document

This page provides a list of instructions that must be done in order when doing a release of Narayana.

Check JIRA

  1. Check all issues resolved.
  2. Create next point release version if not exists - this is so you can push issues in step 3 below.
  3. Unresolved issues should be resolved or pushed.

Check Hudson

Ensure no test failures in the group of hudson tests, for the branch you intend to release.

Raise AS7 component upgrade request in Jira

Prepare for a PR to update AS7.

  1. https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7
  2. create a new 'component update' issue.
    1. Ensure the module is set to 'transactions'
    2. select an appropriate 'fix for'.
    3. Assign it to yourself.

Do Release

Git Branches (4.17 and 5 only)

Must be done first as the build-release-packages.xml relies on the tag being available

 

cd $NARAYANA_SRC/scripts

pre-release.sh <next version, e.g: 5.0.0.M3>

 

Create the AS7 pull request branch and roll the jbosstm/jboss-as branch to next SNAPSHOT (UN-TESTED COMMANDS!!)


BRANCH=4_BRANCH
AS_BRANCH=master

JIRA=AS7-5815

CURRENT=4.17.2.Final
NEXT=4.17.3.Final



git clone git@github.com:jbosstm/jboss-as.git
cd jboss-as
git checkout $BRANCH

git remote add upstream git://github.com/jbossas/jboss-as.git
git pull --rebase --ff-only upstream $AS_BRANCH

sed -i "s/$CURRENT-SNAPSHOT/$CURRENT/g" pom.xml
git commit -am "Upgrade Narayana to $CURRENT"
# should use git merge-base $BRANCH upstream/master
# You will need to resolve som merge conflicts. Most likely around version numbers.
git rebase -i HEAD~10

git checkout -b "${JIRA}_Upgrading_Narayana_to_${CURRENT}"

git checkout $BRANCH
sed -i "s/$CURRENT/$NEXT-SNAPSHOT/g" pom.xml
git commit -am "Upgrade Narayana to $NEXT-SNAPSHOT"


git push origin "${JIRA}_Upgrading_Narayana_to_${CURRENT}"

git push origin $BRANCH

Build and release

blacktie windows binaries

CURRENT=<Version to release. e.g 5.0.0.M2>

 

On Windows:

rem You need to build the windows version separately as we don't support cross compile

git clone git@github.com:jbosstm/blacktie.git

build.bat install -DskipTests

scp blacktie/target/blacktie-$CURRENT-vc9x32-bin.zip <user>@<ipaddress>:

 

Narayana upload

sshfs jbosstm@filemgmt.jboss.org: ~/narayana/filemgmt.jboss.org/

On MacOS:

sshfs -o defer_permissions jbosstm@filemgmt.jboss.org: ~/narayana/filemgmt.jboss.org/


git clone git@github.com:jbosstm/narayana.git

cd narayana

git checkout $CURRENT

On Linux:

ant -f build-release-pkgs.xml dist downloads docs magnolia -Drsync=false

Release the artifact through Nexus

  1. https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/index.html#welcome
  2. login
  3. "Staging Repositories"
  4. Click tickbox for your repo
  5. Click "Close"
  6. Don't worry about a description, just click "Close"
  7. Click tickbox after it is closed
  8. Click "Release"
  9. Again a description doesn't matter

Push Upstream

Check that the pull request will work. If it doesn't and it requires Narayana changes you *have* to rev the version number - DON'T attempt to re-release with the same version number:

JIRA=AS7-5815

CURRENT=4.17.2.Final

 

git clone git@github.com:jbosstm/jboss-as.git

cd jboss-as

git checkout "${JIRA}_Upgrading_Narayana_to_${CURRENT}"

 

rm -rf ~/.m2/repository/org/jboss/jbossts

rm -rf ~/.m2/repository/org/jboss/narayana

./build.sh clean install

 

  1. Raise the pull request using our branch
  2. Update this job to run our CI over the PR. You need to re-run this every time you change the PR, top make sure it still works.
  3. Once merged, resolve the AS7 Jira issue.

JIRA Release

  1. Close all issues for the release
  2. Mark as released (Need admin permissions)

Update CI

Update jobs, to use the new Version (quickstarts, etc). Need a ful list of steps here.

 

Checked the released Quickstarts

Make sure the released quickstarts run against the released Narayana. Do this by updating this job: http://172.17.131.2/view/Narayana+BlackTie-release/job/release-btny-narayana-quickstarts-taconic

 

Need a ful list of steps here.

 

 

Promote

NOTE: It is worth waiting for the merge of the pull request before advertising, or at least wait for the merge build notification first ;)

Promote the release through the following channels:

  1. Email jbossts-announce@lists.jboss.org
  2. Forum
  3. Blog: project in (jbtm, blacktie) AND fixversion = "5.0.0.M2" AND priority >= major AND issuetype not in (Bug, task) AND resolution not in ("Duplicate Issue", Rejected, "Won't Fix", "Out of Date", "Cannot Reproduce Bug")
