Definition

A release is mostly a git tag of http://github.com/wallabag/wallabag, following semantic versioning.

Steps to release

During this documentation, we assume the release is $LAST_WALLABAG_RELEASE.

Files to edit

  • app/config/config.yml (wallabag_core.version)
  • CHANGELOG.md (by using this command github-changes -o wallabag -r wallabag -k YOURGITHUBTOKEN --only-pulls --use-commit-body --title Changelog --date-format YYYY/MM/DD --between-tags 2.0.0-alpha.0...master -n 2.1.3. github-changes is available here)

Create release on GitHub

  • Run these commands to create the tag:
git checkout master
git pull origin master
git checkout -b release-$LAST_WALLABAG_RELEASE
SYMFONY_ENV=prod composer up --no-dev
  • Update .travis.yml file and replace the composer line with this one:
script:
-    - travis_wait bash composer install -o  --no-interaction --no-progress --prefer-dist
+    - travis_wait composer update --no-interaction --no-progress
  • Then continue with these commands:
git add --force composer.lock .travis.yml
git commit -m "Release wallabag $LAST_WALLABAG_RELEASE"
git push origin release-$LAST_WALLABAG_RELEASE
  • Create a new pull request with this title DON'T MERGE Release wallabag $LAST_WALLABAG_RELEASE. This pull request is used to launch builds on Travis-CI.
  • Run these command to create the package:
make release master /tmp wllbg-release prod
  • Create the new release on GitHub. You have to upload on this page the package.
  • Delete the release-$LAST_WALLABAG_RELEASE branch and close the pull request (DO NOT MERGE IT).
  • Update the URL shortener (used on wllbg.org to generate links like http://wllbg.org/latest-v2-package or http://wllbg.org/latest-v2)
  • Update the downloads page on the website (MD5 sum, release date)
  • Update Dockerfile https://github.com/wallabag/docker (and create a new tag)
  • Update wallabag.org website (downloads, releases and new blog post)
  • Put the next patch version suffixed with -dev in app/config/config.yml (wallabag_core.version)
  • Drink a 🍺!

composer.lock

A release tag must contain a composer.lock file. It sets which dependencies were available at the time a release was done, making it easier to fix issues after the release. It also speeds up composer install on stable versions a LOT, by skipping the dependencies resolution part.

Since composer.lock is ignored by default, either it must be removed from .gitignore in the release branch, or it must be added using git add --force composer.lock.

Target PHP version

composer.lock is always built for a particular version, by default the one it is generated (with composer update).

If the PHP version used to generate the .lock isn't a widely available one (like PHP 7), a more common one should be locally specified in composer.lock:

    "config": {
        "platform": {
            "php": "5.5.9",
            "ext-something": "4.0"
        }
    }
