Full Content How to create and announce a Camel release. Note: Make sure that you are using JDK 6 as several camel components (like the Web Console for example) now require JDK 6 Maven 2 Setup Before you deploy anything to the maven repository using Maven 2, you should configure your ~/.m2/settings.xml file so that the file permissions of the deployed artifacts are group writable. If you do not do this, other developers will not able to overwrite your SNAPSHOT releases with newer versions. <settings> ... <servers> <server> <id>apache-repo</id> <username>chirino</username> <directoryPermissions>775</directoryPermissions> <filePermissions>664</filePermissions> </server> <server> <id>apache-snapshots</id> <username>chirino</username> <directoryPermissions>775</directoryPermissions> <filePermissions>664</filePermissions> </server> <server> <id>apache-website</id> <username>chirino</username> <directoryPermissions>775</directoryPermissions> <filePermissions>664</filePermissions> </server> </servers> ... </settings> Creating the Camel Release Prepare env and directory structure export PROJ=apache-camel export PROJVER=<x.y.z> mkdir $HOME/$PROJ-$PROJVER mkdir $HOME/$PROJ-$PROJVER/maven2 mkdir $HOME/$PROJ-$PROJVER/maven mkdir $HOME/$PROJ-$PROJVER/site Grab the latest source from SVN svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/camel/trunk camel cd camel Change the version number in: pom.xml - in the project root and all sub-projects the value of <camel-version> property in the root pom.xml Note: The command below will do the trick on Linux (replace for the appropriate version). find . -name pom.xml | grep -v .svn | xargs sed -i -e s/x.y-SNAPSHOT/$PROJVER/g If you do this on MacOSX, you will need to: find . -name pom.xml | grep -v .svn | xargs sed -i "" -e s/x.y-SNAPSHOT/$PROJVER/g Let Maven build, test, package, and deploy the binaries mvn clean source:jar deploy -Drelease-repo-url="" -Dm1-repo-url="" -Prelease,enable-schemagen Tag the release using your local workspace to a new CAMEL_X_Y label svn copy ../camel https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/camel/tags/camel-x.y.z -m "Camel x.y.z Release" Check that the binaries look fine. Testing the Camel Release Candidate When folks need to test out a release candidate, the jars will not have been uploaded to the Maven repo. This means that the example programs which use Maven will not automatically work. So whenever running the Examples you need to append the following command line argument... mvn camel:run -DremoteRepo=http://people.apache.org/~chirino/apache-camel-1.2.0-RC1/maven2 Assuming that the release candidate is deployed to *http://people.apache.org/~chirino/apache-camel-1.2.0-RC1/maven2 Announcing the Camel Release Perform a release in JIRA and create a new release version in JIRA Create a download page for the release in the WIKI similar like the Camel 2.0.0 Release. There could be already a release notes page in the In Progress folder - if so just edit it and change its parent to be the Download page. Otherwise add a new child page in Download and update the Download page to show the latest release version. Update the Download page to refer to the latest release distributions (search & replace the version numbers mostly Update the Xml Reference page with a link to the HTML and XSD Update the Manual page with a link to the PDF Mail the dev & user lists Post a news entry on the WIKI which links to the release page so folks can download it! perform a full auto-export plugin export of the wiki to static html to work around the bug with autoexport plugin not updating the index page when you post the news item to run autoexport: you go to admin -> plugins -> auto-export-plugin -> configure plugin. Select ActiveMQ from the list, then click on Export Space(s). Be very careful so you don't mess up anyone else's wikis! Have a beer!
