There are a variety of other projects related to dask that are often co-released. We may want to check their status while releasing

Releasing dask and distributed:

  • Check the release issue on https://github.com/dask/community to see if there are any remaining blockers. If not, comment on the issue signalling that you are starting the release

  • Update release notes in docs/source/changelog.rst Start by using this script to autogenerate some of the changelog entries:

    git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --pretty=format:"- %s \`%an\`_"  > change.md && sed -i -e 's/(#/(:pr:`/g' change.md && sed -i -e 's/) `/`) `/g' change.md
    

    Replace single backticks with double backticks.

    Sort the entries into subsections and render docs (make html) to make sure that the changelog renders properly. In particular watch warnings for new contributors who don't yet have a github link at the end of the file.

    Add any new contributors' github links to the end of the file (gh pr view <PR> --json author is helpful for getting their usernames).

  • Update the distributed version in pyproject.toml and the dask version in distributed/pyproject.toml

  • Commit

    git commit -a -m "bump version to YYYY.M.X"
    
  • Tag commit

    git tag -a YYYY.M.X -m 'Version YYYY.M.X'
    
  • Push to GitHub

    git push https://github.com/dask/dask main --tags
    git push https://github.com/dask/distributed main --tags
    
  • Upload to PyPI

    git clean -xfd
    pip install build twine
    pyproject-build
    twine upload dist/*
    
  • AUTOMATED PATH: Wait for conda-forge bots to track the change to PyPI. This will typically happen in an hour or two.

    MANUAL PATH: If you don't want to wait for the bots, then follow these steps:

    • Update conda-smithy and run conda-smithy rerender

       git clone git@github.com:conda-forge/dask-core-feedstock
       cd dask-core-feedstock
       conda install conda-smithy
       conda-smithy rerender
      
    • Get sha256 hash from pypi.org

    • Update version number and hash in recipe

    • Check dependencies

    • Do the same for the dask-feedstock meta-package and distributed-feedstock

    There should be three PRs, one to dask-core, another to distributed, and the last to dask. You should be able to merge these after tests pass. In some cases though you may have to zero out build numbers or update dependencies.

    The packages are interdependent so the tests will pass in a cascade. For instance the distributed PR depends on the availability of dask-core on conda-forge, so its tests won't pass until some time (about an hour) after the dask-core PR is merged. You can check availability on conda-forge using

    conda search 'conda-forge::dask-core=YYYY.M.X'
    

    Once dask-core is available, you can restart the distributed tests by commenting on the PR:

    @conda-forge-admin, please restart CI
    

    dask is similar but it depends on dask-core and distributed.

  • dask-docker PRs should be automatically created, but they might need a small modification. Check by grepping for the old release string.

  • Automated systems internal to Anaconda Inc then handle updating the Anaconda defaults channel

  • Raise an issue (using the release template) in the https://github.com/dask/community issue tracker signaling when the next release will occur (usually in 2 weeks). Let that issue collect comments to ensure that other maintainers are comfortable with releasing.
