Release procedure
#################

.. contents::

General assumption: You are working on branch maintenance, the next version is a bug fix release. For feature releases it is slightly different.

************
Check before
************

* Make sure the current state is really final ;)
  You can test most of the steps described here locally before doing it real.
* Check the upgrade functions in `intelmq/lib/upgrades.py`.
* Close the milestone on GitHub and move any open issues to the next one.
* `docs/user/installation.rst`: Update supported operating systems.

*************
Documentation
*************

 * CHANGELOG.MD and
 * NEWS.MD: Update the latest header, fix the order, remove empty sections and (re)group the entries if necessary.
 * `intelmq/version.py`: Update the version.
 * `debian/changelog`: Insert a new section for the new version with the tool `dch`.

Eventually adapt the default log levels if necessary. Should be INFO for stable releases. See older releases.

******************************
Commit, push, review and merge
******************************

Commit your changes in a separate branch, the final commit's message should start with :code:`REL:`. Push and create a pull request to maintenance and after that from maintenance to master. Someone else should review the changes. Eventually fix them, make sure the :code:`REL:` is the last commit, you can also push that one at last, after the reviews.

Why a separate branch? Because if problems show up, you can still force-push to that one, keeping the release commit the latest one.

***************
Tag and release
***************

Tag the commit with `git tag -s version HEAD`, merge it into master, push the branches *and* the tag. The tag is just `a.b.c`, not prefixed with `v` (that was necessary only with SVN a long time ago...).

Go to https://github.com/certtools/intelmq/tags and enter the release notes (from the CHANGELOG) for the new tag, then it's considered a *release* by GitHub.

*****************
Tarballs and PyPI
*****************

* Build the source and binary (wheel) distribution: `python3 setup.py sdist bdist_wheel`
* Upload the files including signatures to PyPI with e.g. twine: `twine upload -s dist/intelmq...`

********
Packages
********

We are currently using the public Open Build Service instance of openSUSE: http://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:sebix:intelmq

First, test all the steps first with the `unstable-repository <http://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:sebix:intelmq:unstable>`_ and check that at least installations succeed.

* Create the tarballs with the script `create-archives.sh`.
* Update the dsc and spec files for new filenames and versions.
* Update the .changes file
* Build locally for all distributions.
* Commit.

************
Docker Image
************

Releasing a new Docker image is very easy.

* Clone `IntelMQ Docker Repository <https://github.com/certat/intelmq-docker>`_ with ``git clone https://github.com/certat/intelmq-docker.git --recursive`` as this repository contains submodules
* Run `./build.sh`, check your console if the build was successful.
* Run `./test.sh` - It will run nosetests3 with exotic flag. All errors/warnings will be displayed.
* Change the ``build_version`` in ``publish.sh`` to the new version you want to release.
* Change the ``namespace`` variable in `publish.sh`.
* If no error/warning was shown, you can release with `./publish.sh`.

*************
Announcements
*************

Announce the new version at the mailinglists intelmq-users, intelmq-dev.
For bigger releases, probably also at IHAP, Twitter, etc. Ask your favorite social media consultant.

*******************
Prepare new version
*******************

Increase the version in `intelmq/version.py` and declare it as alpha version.
Add the new version in `intelmq/lib/upgrades.py`.
Add a new entry in `debian/changelog` with `dch -v [version] -c debian/changelog`.
