This ruby script allows to automate the release of GeoWebCache.
Installation
Script dependencies to install manually and put in the path:
- GeoWebCache Build tools (Maven, Git, Java)
- make
- Sphinx
- Ruby
- xsddoc
Once Ruby is installed the library dependencies can be installed by running:
gem install bundle
bundle install
Before starting a release
If running on a non Windows platform after installing xssdoc:
dos2unix xsddoc
Copy the release.rb in the root of your GeoWebCache installation and make sure the "EDITOR" variable is set, e.g.
echo $EDITOR
# if empty then
export EDITOR=vi
Also make sure xsddoc in in the path.
Releasing a stable release
Assuming one wants to release a GWC 1.9.3, which depends on GeoToools 15.4, then run the following commands:
ruby release.rb --branch 1.9.x --long-version 1.9.3 --short-version 1.9 --gt-version 15.4 --type stable reset update
ruby release.rb --branch 1.9.x --long-version 1.9.3 --short-version 1.9 --gt-version 15.4 --type stable build
ruby release.rb --branch 1.9.x --long-version 1.9.3 --short-version 1.9 --gt-version 15.4 --type stable --sf-user <theUser> deploy
ruby release.rb --branch 1.9.x --long-version 1.9.3 --short-version 1.9 --gt-version 15.4 --type stable --release-commit <versionCommitId> tag
where versionCommitId is the commit automatically created by the update command, that switched all the pom files to release 1.9.3 (that needs to be tagged, and then reverted for the 1.9.x branch).
As an optional command for those having access to the server running geowebcache.org, the web site can be updated using:
ruby release.rb --branch 1.9.x --long-version 1.9.3 --short-version 1.9 --gt-version 15.4 --type stable --web-user <serverUserName> web
Creating a new branch
Same as above, but with these instructions:
ruby release.rb --branch master reset
ruby release.rb --new-branch 1.15.x --old-branch master --long-version 1.15-SNAPSHOT --short-version 1.15 --gt-version 22-SNAPSHOT branch
ruby release.rb --branch 1.15.x --long-version 1.15-RC --short-version 1.15 --gt-version 21-RC --type candidate update
ruby release.rb --branch 1.15.x --long-version 1.15-RC --short-version 1.15 --gt-version 21-RC --type candidate build
ruby release.rb --branch 1.15.x --long-version 1.15-RC --short-version 1.15 --gt-version 21-RC --type candidate --sf-user aaime deploy
ruby release.rb --branch 1.15.x --long-version 1.15-RC --release-commit 56389371f6d92b5493100b1c519f05a5037bc1b0 tag
