# Releasing this library
|
|
|
|
We release by uploading the tarball to GitHub, uploading Ubuntu PPAs, and by
|
|
updating the Homebrew recipe for this library.
|
|
|
|
## Creating the release tarball
|
|
You may want to refer to the section about prerequisites.
|
|
|
|
* Check whether there are any open issues to fix while you're doing this.
|
|
* Update `Changes.md` to include specify the new version, today's date, and
|
|
list relevant changes. Commit this.
|
|
* Run `./dev-bin/release.sh` to update various files in the distro, our
|
|
GitHub pages, and creates a GitHub release with the tarball.
|
|
* Check the release looks good on both GitHub and launchpad.net.
|
|
|
|
## PPA
|
|
|
|
In order to upload a PPA, you have to create a launchpad.net account and
|
|
register a GPG key with that account. You also need to be added to the MaxMind
|
|
team. Ask in the dev channel for someone to add you. See
|
|
https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA for more details.
|
|
|
|
The PPA release script is at `dev-bin/ppa-release.sh`. Running it should
|
|
guide you though the release, although it may require some changes to run on
|
|
configurations different than Greg's machine.
|
|
|
|
Check whether any new Ubuntu versions need to be listed in this script
|
|
before running it.
|
|
|
|
You should run it from `master`.
|
|
|
|
## Homebrew
|
|
|
|
* Go to https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/edit/master/Formula/libmaxminddb.rb
|
|
* Edit the file to update the url and sha256. You can get the sha256 for the
|
|
tarball with the `sha256sum` command line utility.
|
|
* Make a commit with the summary `libmaxminddb <VERSION>`
|
|
* Submit a PR with the changes you just made.
|
|
|
|
# Prerequisites for releasing
|
|
|
|
* Required packages (Ubuntu Artful): vim git-core dput build-essential
|
|
autoconf automake libtool git-buildpackage libfile-slurp-perl pandoc
|
|
dirmngr libfile-slurp-tiny-perl libdatetime-perl debhelper dh-autoreconf
|
|
libipc-run3-perl libtest-output-perl devscripts
|
|
* Install [hub](https://github.com/github/hub/releases). (Using `./install`
|
|
from the tarball is fine)
|
|
* GitHub ssh key (e.g. in `~/.ssh/id_rsa`)
|
|
* Git config (e.g. `~/.gitconfig`)
|
|
* Import your GPG secret key (or create one if you don't have a suitable
|
|
one)
|
|
* `gpg --import /path/to/key`
|
|
* `gpg --edit-key KEYID` and trust it ultimately
|
|
* Ensure it shows with `gpg --list-secret-keys`
|
|
* You need to be invited to the launchpad.net MaxMind organization on your
|
|
launchpad.net account.
|
|
* You need your GPG key listed on your launchpad.net account
|
|
* You can add it in the web interface. It wants the output of
|
|
`gpg --fingerprint`.
|
|
* Part of the instructions involve having your key published on the
|
|
Ubuntu keyserver:
|
|
`gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --send-keys KEYID`
|
|
* You'll get an email with an encrypted payload that you need to decrypt
|
|
and follow the link to confirm it.
|
|
* Ensure `dch` knows your name and email. Refer to its man page for how to
|
|
tell it this. One way is to set the `DEBFULLNAME` and `DEBEMAIL`
|
|
environment variables. These should match your GPG key's name and email
|
|
exactly. This is what gets used in the Debian changelog as well as
|
|
defines what GPG key to use.
