Apache SkyWalking NodeJS Release Guide

This documentation guides the release manager to release the SkyWalking NodeJS in the Apache Way, and also helps people to check the release for voting.

Prerequisites

  1. Close (if finished, or move to next milestone otherwise) all issues in the current milestone from skywalking-nodejs and skywalking, create a new milestone for the next release.
  2. Update CHANGELOG.md and version in package.json.

Add your GPG public key to Apache svn

  1. Upload your GPG public key to a public GPG site, such as MIT's site.

  2. Log in id.apache.org and submit your key fingerprint.

  3. Add your GPG public key into SkyWalking GPG KEYS file, you can do this only if you are a PMC member. You can ask a PMC member for help. DO NOT override the existed KEYS file content, only append your key at the end of the file.

Build and sign the source code package

export VERSION=<the version to release>

git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:apache/skywalking-nodejs && cd skywalking-nodejs
git tag -a "v$VERSION" -m "Release Apache SkyWalking-NodeJS $VERSION"
git push --tags

npm install && npm run release-src

Upload to Apache svn

svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/skywalking/node-js/ release/skywalking/node-js
mkdir -p release/skywalking/node-js/"$VERSION"

All PMC members and committers should check these before voting +1:

  1. Features test.
  2. All artifacts in staging repository are published with .asc, .md5, and sha files.
  3. Source codes and distribution packages (skywalking-nodejs-src-$VERSION.tgz) are in https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/skywalking/node-js/$VERSION with .asc, .sha512.
  4. LICENSE and NOTICE are in source codes and distribution package.
  5. Check shasum -c skywalking-nodejs-src-$VERSION.tgz.sha512.
  6. Check gpg --verify skywalking-nodejs-src-$VERSION.tgz.asc skywalking-nodejs-src-$VERSION.tgz.
  7. Build distribution from source code package by following this the build guide.
  8. Licenses check, make license.

Vote result should follow these:

  1. PMC vote is +1 binding, all others is +1 no binding.

  2. Within 72 hours, you get at least 3 (+1 binding), and have more +1 than -1. Vote pass.

    72+ hours passed, we’ve got ($NUMBER) +1 bindings (and ... +1 non-bindings):
    
    (list names)
    +1 bindings:
    xxx
    ...
    
    +1 non-bindings:
    xxx
    ...
    
    Thank you for voting, I’ll continue the release process.
    

Publish release

  1. Move source codes tar balls and distributions to https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/skywalking/, you can do this only if you are a PMC member.

    svn mv https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/skywalking/node-js/"$VERSION" https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/skywalking/node-js/"$VERSION"
  2. Refer to the previous PR, update news and links on the website. There are several files need to modify.

  3. Update Github release page, follow the previous convention.

  4. Publish to npmjs.com, this is optional for Apache releases, but we usually want to do this to let users use it conveniently.

npm run build && npm pack && npm publish

NOTE: please double check before publishing to npmjs.com, it's difficult to unpublish and republish the module at the moment.

  1. Send ANNOUNCE email to dev@skywalking.apache.org and announce@apache.org, the sender should use his/her Apache email account.
