This repository contains several scripts that automate parts of the Overture release process.
github-fetch-milestone-issues.py
: Script for generating release notes for closed milestones. The template file ReleaseNotes-template.md
must exist in the folder where the script is. If you are releasing Overture you may want to execute this script from <overture-root>/documentation/releasenotes
.
update-examples.sh
: Checks out the Overture standard examples, including the website, and adds the examples to the web site. After the script has been executed, the user must manually push the changes to the examples and website repositories. The instructions are provided by the script.
perform-release.sh
Performs a Maven release with tycho mode enabled by the With-IDE
profile. This script can be run in interactive mode, i.e. it stops before pushing/releasing. Alternatively, one can perform an automated release by setting the environment variable batchmode=release
. Before this script is executed, the release version and the new development version must be specified in the overture.release.properties
file, which is located in the root of the tool repository. This file must be edited and comitted before running the script. Run script as ./perform-release.sh
.
In order to run this script you will need GPG set up as well as a login to access Sonatype. For details, see the instructions in the release notes.
Note that: The script is currently not checking out master
and merging the corresponding release tag. When that's done trigger the overture-master
build job on the overture.au.dk build server in order to release the IDE.
If the maven-gpg-plugin
is complaining that it "Cannot obtain passphrase in batch mode" you may want to supply your passphrase via your local settings (stored in thesettings.xml
file in the .m2
folder). An example of how this can be done is shown below.
