# Release process guidance
|
|
|
|
## Release version and Docker images
|
|
|
|
0. Document all the changes for new release in [CHANGELOG.md](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/docs/CHANGELOG.md).
|
|
1. Create release tag with `git tag v1.xx.y` in `master` branch and `git tag v1.xx.y-cluster` in `cluster` branch.
|
|
2. Run `make release` for creating `*.tar.gz` release archive with the corresponding `_checksums.txt` inside `bin` directory.
|
|
3. Run `make publish` for creating and publishing Docker images.
|
|
4. Repeat steps 3-4 for `cluster` branch.
|
|
5. Push release tag to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics : `git push origin v1.xx.y`.
|
|
6. Go to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases , create new release from the pushed tag on step 5 and upload `*.tar.gz` archive with the corresponding `_checksums.txt` from step 2.
|
|
|
|
## Building snap package.
|
|
|
|
pre-requirements:
|
|
- snapcraft binary, can be installed with commands:
|
|
for MacOS `brew install snapcraft` and [install mutipass](https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/installing-multipass-on-macos/8329),
|
|
for Ubuntu - `sudo snap install snapcraft --classic`
|
|
- login with `snapcraft login`
|
|
- already created release at github (it operates `git describe` version, so git tag must be annotated).
|
|
|
|
0. checkout to the latest git tag for single-node version.
|
|
1. execute `make release-snap` - it must build and upload snap package.
|
|

## Helm Charts
|
|
|
|
The helm chart repository [https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/helm-charts/](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/helm-charts/)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Bump the version of images.
|
|
In that case, don't need to bump the helm chart version
|
|
|
|
1. Need to update [`values.yaml`](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/helm-charts/blob/master/charts/victoria-metrics-cluster/values.yaml), bump version for `vmselect`, `vminsert` and `vmstorage`
|
|
2. Specify the correct version in [`Chart.yaml`](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/helm-charts/blob/master/charts/victoria-metrics-cluster/Chart.yaml)
|
|
3. Update version [README.md](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/helm-charts/blob/master/charts/victoria-metrics-cluster/README.md), specify the new version in the documentation
|
|
4. Push changes to master. `master` is a source of truth
|
|
5. Rebase `master` into `gh-pages` branch
|
|
6. Run `make package` which creates or updates zip file with the packed chart
|
|
7. Run `make merge`. It creates or updates metadata for charts in index.yaml
|
|
8. Push the changes to `gh-pages` branch
|
|
|
|
### Updating the chart.
|
|
1. Update chart version in [`Chart.yaml`](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/helm-charts/blob/master/charts/victoria-metrics-cluster/Chart.yaml)
|
|
2. Update [README.md](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/helm-charts/blob/master/charts/victoria-metrics-cluster/README.md) file, reflect changes in the documentation.
|
|
3. Repeat the procedure from step _4_ previous section.
