===== Rolling an OpenSRF release =====

**NB:** The following example prepares a release for OpenSRF version 3.3.2. Be sure to adjust version numbers as appropriate for whatever release number you are building.

  - Ensure that the necessary packages are installed. On a Debian-derived system (including Ubuntu), you will need the following:
    - git
    - build-essential
    - autoconf
    - automake
    - libtool
    - pkg-config
    - tar
    - asciidoc
    - source-highlight
  - Create a local working branch for the release: <code bash>$ git checkout -b rel_3_3 origin/rel_3_3</code>
  - Add release notes for the latest release at the top of ''doc/RELEASE_NOTES.txt''
  - Bump version numbers in the working branch:
    * Update the AC_INIT() version number in the tagged release in ''version.m4''
    * Update the version stamp in the tagged release (edit src/perl/lib/OpenSRF.pm)
    * README
  - Commit the changes:<code bash>
$ git commit -as -m 'Bump up version numbers for 3.3.2'</code>
  - Update the ChangeLog in the tagged release:<code bash>
$ # get the date of the last commit to the previous release
$ git show osrf_rel_3_3_1 # last commit was 2024-06-25
$ # this is not perfect, but it's close enough...
$ git log --numstat --since 2024-06-26 > ChangeLog
$ git add ChangeLog
$ git commit -sm 'Update ChangeLog for 3.3.2'</code>
  - Follow the steps to build and test the release and ensure that all tests pass.
  - Push the working branch to origin: <code>git push origin rel_3_3</code>
  - Tag the branch and push the new tag to the public repository:<code bash>
$ git tag -a osrf_rel_3_3_2 -m 'OpenSRF release 3.3.2'
$ git push --tags</code>
  - Create a clean export of the files in a working directory (''/tmp'' in the following example) and generate a tarball that contains the autotools-ized files:<code bash>
$ git archive --prefix=opensrf-3.3.2/ rel_3_3 | tar -C /tmp -xv
$ cd /tmp/opensrf-3.3.2/
$ autoreconf -i
$ cd ..
$ tar zcvf opensrf-3.3.2.tar.gz opensrf-3.3.2/
$ md5sum opensrf-3.3.2.tar.gz > opensrf-3.3.2.tar.gz.md5
$ cp opensrf-3.3.2/ChangeLog OpenSRF-ChangeLog-3.3.2
$ cp opensrf-3.3.2/README README_3_3_2.adoc
$ cp opensrf-3.3.2/doc/RELEASE_NOTES.txt RELEASE_NOTES_3_3_2.adoc
$ asciidoc -a toc -a numbered README_3_3_2.adoc
$ asciidoc -a toc -a numbered RELEASE_NOTES_3_3_2.adoc
# Copy the bundle to the community server
$ scp -P 3399 OpenSRF-ChangeLog-3.3.2 opensrf-3.3.2.tar.gz* *.html evergreen-ils.org:~/</code>
  - //Bonus hygiene step:// Take the tarball you just created and test installing OpenSRF from it; at the very least, ensure that ''make check'' passes.
  - Move the release files into the correct download directories:
    * Previews / alphas / betas / release candidates go in ''/var/www/open-ils.org/downloads/previews/'' 
    * Final releases go in ''/var/www/open-ils.org/downloads/''
    * Install docs go in ''/var/www/open-ils.org/documentation/install/OpenSRF/''
    * Release notes go in ''/var/www/open-ils.org/documentation/release/OpenSRF/''
