# Setup from scratch
1. [Install Go](https://golang.org/dl/).
1. Ensure that your `GOBIN` directory (by default `$(go env GOPATH)/bin`)
is in your `PATH`.
1. Check it's working by running `go version`.
* If it doesn't work, check the install location, usually
`/usr/local/go`, is on your `PATH`.
1. Sign one of the
[contributor license agreements](#contributor-license-agreements) below.
1. Run `go get golang.org/x/review/git-codereview && go install golang.org/x/review/git-codereview`
to install the code reviewing tool.
1. Ensure it's working by running `git codereview` (check your `PATH` if
not).
1. If you would like, you may want to set up aliases for `git-codereview`,
such that `git codereview change` becomes `git change`. See the
[godoc](https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/review/git-codereview) for details.
* Should you run into issues with the `git-codereview` tool, please note
that all error messages will assume that you have set up these aliases.
1. Change to a directory of your choosing and clone the repo.
```
cd ~/code
git clone https://code.googlesource.com/gocloud
```
* If you have already checked out the source, make sure that the remote
`git` `origin` is https://code.googlesource.com/gocloud:
```
git remote -v
# ...
git remote set-url origin https://code.googlesource.com/gocloud
```
* The project uses [Go Modules](https://blog.golang.org/using-go-modules)
for dependency management See
[`gopls`](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/gopls) for making your editor
work with modules.
1. Change to the project directory and add the github remote:
```
cd ~/code/gocloud
git remote add github https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-go
```
1. Make sure your `git` auth is configured correctly by visiting
https://code.googlesource.com, clicking "Generate Password" at the top-right,
and following the directions. Otherwise, `git codereview mail` in the next step
will fail.
# Which module to release?
The Go client libraries have several modules. Each module does not strictly
correspond to a single library - they correspond to trees of directories. If a
file needs to be released, you must release the closest ancestor module.
To see all modules:
```
$ cat `find . -name go.mod` | grep module
module cloud.google.com/go
module cloud.google.com/go/bigtable
module cloud.google.com/go/firestore
module cloud.google.com/go/bigquery
module cloud.google.com/go/storage
module cloud.google.com/go/datastore
module cloud.google.com/go/pubsub
module cloud.google.com/go/spanner
module cloud.google.com/go/logging
```
The `cloud.google.com/go` is the repository root module. Each other module is
a submodule.
So, if you need to release a change in `bigtable/bttest/inmem.go`, the closest
ancestor module is `cloud.google.com/go/bigtable` - so you should release a new
version of the `cloud.google.com/go/bigtable` submodule.
If you need to release a change in `asset/apiv1/asset_client.go`, the closest
ancestor module is `cloud.google.com/go` - so you should release a new version
of the `cloud.google.com/go` repository root module. Note: releasing
`cloud.google.com/go` has no impact on any of the submodules, and vice-versa.
They are released entirely independently.
# How to release `cloud.google.com/go`
1. Navigate to `~/code/gocloud/` and switch to master.
1. `git pull`
1. Run `git tag -l | grep -v beta | grep -v alpha` to see all existing releases.
The current latest tag `$CV` is the largest tag. It should look something
like `vX.Y.Z` (note: ignore all `LIB/vX.Y.Z` tags - these are tags for a
specific library, not the module root). We'll call the current version `$CV`
and the new version `$NV`.
1. On master, run `git log $CV...` to list all the changes since the last
release. NOTE: You must manually visually parse out changes to submodules [1]
(the `git log` is going to show you things in submodules, which are not going
to be part of your release).
1. Edit `CHANGES.md` to include a summary of the changes.
1. `cd internal/version && go generate && cd -`
1. Mail the CL: `git add -A && git change <branch name> && git mail`
1. Wait for the CL to be submitted. Once it's submitted, and without submitting
any other CLs in the meantime:
a. Switch to master.
b. `git pull`
c. Tag the repo with the next version: `git tag $NV`.
d. Push the tag to both remotes:
`git push origin $NV`
`git push github $NV`
1. Update [the releases page](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-go/releases)
with the new release, copying the contents of `CHANGES.md`.
# How to release a submodule
We have several submodules, including `cloud.google.com/go/logging`,
`cloud.google.com/go/datastore`, and so on.
To release a submodule:
(these instructions assume we're releasing `cloud.google.com/go/datastore` - adjust accordingly)
1. Navigate to `~/code/gocloud/` and switch to master.
1. `git pull`
1. Run `git tag -l | grep datastore | grep -v beta | grep -v alpha` to see all
existing releases. The current latest tag `$CV` is the largest tag. It
should look something like `datastore/vX.Y.Z`. We'll call the current version
`$CV` and the new version `$NV`.
1. On master, run `git log $CV.. -- datastore/` to list all the changes to the
submodule directory since the last release.
1. Edit `datastore/CHANGES.md` to include a summary of the changes.
1. `cd internal/version && go generate && cd -`
1. Mail the CL: `git add -A && git change <branch name> && git mail`
1. Wait for the CL to be submitted. Once it's submitted, and without submitting
any other CLs in the meantime:
a. Switch to master.
b. `git pull`
c. Tag the repo with the next version: `git tag $NV`.
d. Push the tag to both remotes:
`git push origin $NV`
`git push github $NV`
1. Update [the releases page](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-go/releases)
with the new release, copying the contents of `datastore/CHANGES.md`.
# Appendix
1: This should get better as submodule tooling matures.
