Release tool for elasticsearch plugin

This tool set allows release of elasticsearch plugins.

Copy dev-tools/release.py script to your dev-tools/ dir and launch it using:

python3 dev-tools/release.py

or run in your root repository:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-plugins-script/master/dev-tools/release.py -x -nH --cut-dirs=3
python3 dev-tools/release.py

It will download all needed scripts and files in a plugin_tools directory and will launch the release process.

Note:

• We only download a new version if no one is available or if you did not launch the release process for a long time
• If you need to force an update, you just have to remove plugin_tools dir
• You should add plugin_tools to your .gitignore file
• The release.py auto updates if needed. It means you will have to commit it to your repo.
