The automated push of release tags to Github require specifying the remote repository name when doing `git push <remote-repo-name> v1.xx.y`. The remote repository name can differ in different environments, so it cannot be put into Makefile rule. TODO: create a Makefile rule, which generates standard remote names for public and private repositories in Git, so `git push` for release tags could be automated then.

# Release process guidance
|
|
|
|
## Prereqs
|
|
1. Make sure you have enterprise remote configured
|
|
```
|
|
git remote add enterprise <url>
|
|
```
|
|
2. Make sure you have singing key configured
|
|
3. Make sure you have github token with at least `read:org, repo, write:packages` permissions exported under `GITHUB_TOKEN` env variable.
|
|
You can create token [here](https://github.com/settings/tokens)
|
|
|
|
## Release version and Docker images
|
|
|
|
0. Make sure that the release commits have no security issues.
|
|
1a. Document all the changes for new release in [CHANGELOG.md](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/docs/CHANGELOG.md).
|
|
1b. Add `(available starting from v1.xx.y)` line to feature docs introduced in the upcoming release.
|
|
2. Create the following release tags:
|
|
* `git tag -s v1.xx.y` in `master` branch
|
|
* `git tag -s v1.xx.y-cluster` in `cluster` branch
|
|
* `git tag -s v1.xx.y-enterprise` in `enterprise` branch
|
|
* `git tag -s v1.xx.y-enterprise-cluster` in `enterprise-cluster` branch
|
|
3. Run `TAG=v1.xx.y make publish-release`. This command performs the following tasks:
|
|
a) Build and package binaries in `*.tar.gz` release archives with the corresponding `_checksums.txt` files inside `bin` directory.
|
|
This step can be run manually with the command `make release` from the needed git tag.
|
|
b) Build and publish [multi-platform Docker images](https://docs.docker.com/build/buildx/multiplatform-images/)
|
|
for the given `TAG`, `TAG-cluster`, `TAG-enterprise` and `TAG-enterprise-cluster`.
|
|
The multi-platform Docker image is built for the following platforms:
|
|
* linux/amd64
|
|
* linux/arm64
|
|
* linux/arm
|
|
* linux/ppc64le
|
|
* linux/386
|
|
This step can be run manually with the command `make publish` from the needed git tag.
|
|
4. Push the tags created `v1.xx.y` and `v1.xx.y-cluster` at step 2 to public GitHub repository at https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics .
|
|
**Important note:** do not push enteprise tags to public GitHub repository - they must be pushed only to private repository.
|
|
5. Run `TAG=v1.xx.yy make github-create-release github-upload-assets`. This command performs the following tasks:
|
|
a) Create draft GitHub release with the name `TAG`. This step can be run manually
|
|
with the command `TAG=v1.xx.y make github-create-release`.
|
|
The release id is stored at `/tmp/vm-github-release` file.
|
|
b) Upload all the binaries and checksums created at step `3a` to that release.
|
|
This step can be run manually with the command `make github-upload-assets`.
|
|
It is expected that the needed release id is stored at `/tmp/vm-github-release` file,
|
|
which must be created at the step `a`.
|
|
If the upload process is interrupted by any reason, then the following recovery steps must be performed:
|
|
- To delete the created draft release by running the command `make github-delete-release`.
|
|
This command expects that the id of the release to delete is located at `/tmp/vm-github-release`
|
|
file created at the step `a`.
|
|
- To run the command `TAG=v1.xx.y make github-create-release github-upload-assets`, so new release is created
|
|
and all the needed assets are re-uploaded to it.
|
|
6. Go to <https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases> and verify that draft release with the name `TAG` has been created
|
|
and this release contains all the needed binaries and checksums.
|
|
7. Update the release description with the [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/docs/CHANGELOG.md) for this release.
|
|
8. Remove the `draft` checkbox for the `TAG` release and manually publish it.
|
|
9. Bump version of the VictoriaMetrics cluster in the [sandbox environment](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/ops/blob/main/sandbox/manifests/benchmark-vm/vmcluster.yaml)
|
|
by [opening and merging PR](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/ops/pull/58).
|
|
|
|
## 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`
|
|
* exported snapcraft login to `~/.snap/login.json` with `snapcraft export-login login.json && mkdir -p ~/.snap && mv login.json ~/.snap/`
|
|
* already created release at github (it operates `git describe` version, so git tag must be annotated).
|
|
|
|
1. checkout to the latest git tag for single-node version.
|
|
2. execute `make release-snap` - it must build and upload snap package.
|
|
3. promote release to current, if needed manually at release page [snapcraft-releases](https://snapcraft.io/victoriametrics/releases)
|
