The last line is to remove the previous version, since only the most recent version on a particular branch should be in the dist directory (older versions are archived automatically, see http://archive.apache.org/dist/bigtop/ and http://www.apache.org/dev/mirrors.html).

This page describes how to make a release of Apache Bigtop. Most of the content is shamelessly stolen from the the Whirr release process – thanks Whirr team!

Shall you need to commit additional fixes into ongoing release, the commits should go to the release branch and only then be merged into master. Doing this other way around forces git cherry-pick which leads to discrepancies in the commit hash-codes and makes the branch look untidy and hard to follow.

Also, update the default version of Bigtop (and your code signing key ID, if needed) defined in hieradata on master and the release branch. For example:

Code Block

$ git checkout master

(edit bigtop-deploy/puppet/hieradata/bigtop/repo.yaml)

Shall you need to commit additional fixes into ongoing release, the commits should go to the release branch and only then be merged into master. Doing this other way around forces git cherry-pick which leads to discrepancies in the commit hash-codes and makes the branch look untidy and hard to follow.

For a patch release, just do the following four items on the branch-X.Y, instead of doing all of the items above:

Update the release branch's version information
Rename docker images and repo URLs
Update the default version of Bigtop
Commit these changes to the release branch and push

3. Generate the Release Notes

JIRA has the ability to generate release notes automatically (this is why it is so important to keep the fix version number accurate).

https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ConfigureReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12311420

Manually check this list for accuracy, since JIRA can be updated after step 1, even if it's unintentional. Also, I've repeatedly seen closed bugs that were not fixed (i.e., duplicate) marked with a fix version, so that they incorrectly show up in this list. Find those, edit them to remove the fix release (only actually fixed bugs should have a fix release) and re-run the report. A better way to deal with it is to run

Code Block
fixVersion = X.Y.Z AND project = BIGTOP AND resolution = Duplicate ORDER by priority DESC

Select the correct version. Ask for both plain text and HTML formats.

Paste the plain text notes to the top of CHANGES.txt. Paste the HTML version into src/site/xdoc/release-notes.xml. Check this into master and the branch.

Wrap the title ("Release Notes - Bigtop - Version X.Y.Z") inside an <h3> element.

4. Commit and Tag

Tag, and push the changes and the tag to git:

Code Block

language	bash

git tag release-x.y.z-RC0 -m "Bigtop X.Y.Z release."
git push upstream release-x.y.z-RC0

5. Build and run Package and Smoke Tests

5.1. Build bigtop/slaves Docker images

Create a release specific job to build images such as Docker-Puppet-x.y.z, Docker-Toolchain-x.y.z and Docker-Toolchain-x.y.z-pull by copying existing jobs:

Make sure there is enough free space on the disk of Jenkins worker nodes. Remove workspaces and Docker images for old releases if you need to reclaim the free space.

Make sure all the built images are uploaded to Dockerhub after running the job.

Make sure all the built images are downloaded on docker-slave-06 and docker-slave-07 (by Docker-Toolchain-x.y.z-pull).

5.2. Build RPM/DEB packages

Create a release specific job to build packages:

https://ci.bigtop.apache.org/view/Releases/job/Bigtop-1.4.0/

Download all built packages via archive download feature provided by Jenkins on a machine that you want to proceed the signing:

Code Block

language	bash

PLATFORM=amd64
#PLATFORM=aarch64  # enable when running on the ARM platform
#PLATFORM=ppc64le  # enable when running on the PowerPC platform

# Download artifacts for all OS supported in Bigtop.
# Note that you should run this on each platform (x86_64, ARM, and PowerPC), because
# you will sign the artifacts and create repository in Docker container later,
# which are dependent on the platform.
for DISTRO in centos-7 fedora-26 opensuse-42.3 debian-9 ubuntu-16.04; do
  curl -L https://ci.bigtop.apache.org/view/Releases/job/Bigtop-1.4.0/DISTRO=${DISTRO},PLATFORM=${PLATFORM}-slave/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/*zip*/archive.zip -o ${DISTRO}.zip
done

# Extract the downloaded archive. If you come across the 
# "invalid zip file with overlapped components (possible zip bomb)"
# error, use other tools than unzip, e.g., `jar xf "${i}.zip"`
for i in centos-7 fedora-26 opensuse-42.3 debian-9 ubuntu-16.04; do
  unzip "${i}.zip"
  mkdir "${i}"
  mv archive/output/* "${i}"
  rm -rf archive
done

5.3. Sign RPM packages and yum repos

5.5. Upload to S3

The easiest way to upload artifacts to S3 is via your own AWS account. Add your account(email) to bigtop's bucket in the section "Access for other AWS accounts":

Image Added

Once permission granted, you're able to use your account's access key and secret key with aws s3 sync command for upload, like:

Code Block

language	bash

# In case of CentOS 7
aws s3 sync --acl public-read ./centos-7/ s3://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/centos/7/x86_64/   # for x86_64/amd64
aws s3 sync --acl public-read ./centos-7/ s3://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/centos/7/aarch64/  # for aarch64/arm64
aws s3 sync --acl public-read ./centos-7/ s3://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/centos/7/ppc64le/  # for ppc64le/ppc64el

# In case of Ubuntu 16.04
aws s3 sync --acl public-read ./ubuntu-16.04/ s3://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/ubuntu/16.04/amd64/    # for x86_64/amd64
aws s3 sync --acl public-read ./ubuntu-16.04/ s3://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/ubuntu/16.04/arm64/    # for aarch64/arm64
aws s3 sync --acl public-read ./ubuntu-16.04/ s3://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/ubuntu/16.04/ppc64el/  # for ppc64le/ppc64el

The directory layouts on S3 bucket looked like the following:

Code Block

repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/centos/7/x86_64
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/fedora/26/x86_64
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/opensuse/42.3/x86_64
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/debian/9/amd64
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/ubuntu/16.04/amd64

For YUM repos, upload files /work/centos-7/* into repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/centos/7/x86_64/. For example:

Code Block
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/centos/7/x86_64/alluxio repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/centos/7/x86_64/ambari ... repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/centos/7/x86_64/repodata ...

For APT repos, upload files /work/debian-9/* into repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/debian/9/amd64/. For example:

Code Block

repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/debian/9/amd64/conf
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/debian/9/amd64/db
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/debian/9/amd64/dists
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/debian/9/amd64/pool

5.6. Create repo files

Create one for each of our Distro. Following are examples for YUM and APT:

Code Block

language	bash

VERSION=1.4.0
RC_NUMBER=0
DIR=bigtop-${VERSION}-RC${RC_NUMBER}/repos
mkdir -p ${DIR}
cd ${DIR}

# YUM
for OS in centos-7 fedora-26 opensuse-42.3; do
  cat > bigtop.repo <<__EOT__
[bigtop]
name=Bigtop
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
baseurl=http://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/${VERSION}/${OS/-/\/}/\$basearch
gpgkey=https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/bigtop/KEYS
__EOT__
  gpg --detach-sign --armor bigtop.repo
  mkdir "${OS//\/}"
  mv bigtop.repo* "${OS//\/}"
done

# APT
for OS in debian-9 ubuntu-16.04; do
  cat > bigtop.list <<__EOT__
deb http://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/${VERSION}/${OS/-/\/}/\$(ARCH) bigtop contrib
__EOT__
  gpg --detach-sign --armor bigtop.list
  mkdir "${OS//\/}"
  mv bigtop.list* "${OS//\/}"
done

Add your signed armored GPG key to repos directory to ease the key import for the users

Code Block

language	bash

gpg --armor --export <your name> >> GPG-KEY-bigtop
gpg --detach-sign --armor GPG-KEY-bigtop

Result looks like below:

Code Block
GPG-KEY-bigtop GPG-KEY-bigtop.asc centos7/ debian9/ fedora26/ opensuse42.3/ ubuntu16.04/

5.7. Commit repo files into https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/bigtop/bigtop-X.Y.Z-RCn/repos/

5.8. Run smoke tests with the uploaded packages

Create a release specific job to deploy and run smoke test with the uploaded packages.
You may have to rerun the job several times to stabilize the result due to download failure. Leverage the "Matrix Reloaded" plugin so as to rebuild only unstable and failed combinations.

https://ci.bigtop.apache.org/view/Test/job/Bigtop-trunk-smoke-tests-1.4.0/

Summarize its result on the Wiki.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/BIGTOP/Overview+of+Bigtop+1.4.0+Support+Matrix

6. Build and Deploy Artifacts

First we need to prepare a build environment. Mac OS X is unlikely supported because we'll run through some tests that depends on the OS. Here I'm running on Ubuntu-18.04 (There's an issue for running on 16.04 traced by BIGTOP-2830).

Code Block

language	bash

cd ~/
docker run -ti -u jenkins -v $PWD:/work bigtop/slaves:trunk-ubuntu-18.04 bash -l
# The subsequence commands should be executed inside the docker container
cp -r /work/.gnupg ~/

Create a maven settings file ~/.m2/settings.xml with the following content:

Code Block

<settings>
   <servers>
      <server>
         <id>apache.snapshots.https</id>
         <username>APACHE-ID</username>
         <password>APACHE-PASSWORD</password>
      </server>
      <server>
         <id>apache.staging.https</id>
         <username>APACHE-ID</username>
         <password>APACHE-PASSWORD</password>
      </server>
      <server>
         <id>apache.releases.https</id>
         <username>APACHE-ID</username>
         <password>APACHE-PASSWORD</password>
      </server>
   </servers>
   <profiles>
      <profile>
         <id>gpg</id>
         <properties>
            <gpg.executable>gpg</gpg.executable>
            <gpg.passphrase>GPG-PASSWORD</gpg.passphrase>
         </properties>
      </profile>
   </profiles>
   <activeProfiles>
      <activeProfile>gpg</activeProfile>
   </activeProfiles>
</settings>

Build the artifacts:

Code Block

language	bash

mvn clean site
mvn -Prelease package assembly:single

The following command deploys the binary release artifacts for iTest, tests and other helper files, checksums, and signatures (you will need to enter a GPG passphrase. If you got a "gpg: signing failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device" error, try `export GPG_TTY=$(tty)`) to the Apache Staging repo.

Code Block

language	bash

mvn deploy -Prelease -f pom.xml
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-test-framework/pom.xml
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-tests/test-artifacts/pom.xml
HADOOP_CONF_DIR=/etc/hadoop/conf HADOOP_HOME=/usr/lib/hadoop mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-tests/test-execution/pom.xml -DskipITs

For the last step to succeed you'd need to export HADOOP_HOME and HADOOP_CONF_DIR (BIGTOP-1464): the values don't matter - it is just a workaround. Also, the -DskipITs option for the last step should be removed in the future by resolving BIGTOP-3461.

If the deployment step fails with an Access denied error check that you have the required permissions on Nexus.

If you have multiple keys, the build process seems to pick up the first one w/o asking. Make sure you're using the CODE SIGNING KEY by explicitly specifying it. For example:

Code Block

language	bash

mvn deploy -Prelease -f pom.xml -Dgpg.keyname="Evans Ye (CODE SIGNING KEY) <evansye@apache.org>"
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-test-framework/pom.xml -Dgpg.keyname="Evans Ye (CODE SIGNING KEY) <evansye@apache.org>"
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-tests/test-artifacts/pom.xml -Dgpg.keyname="Evans Ye (CODE SIGNING KEY) <evansye@apache.org>"
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-tests/test-execution/pom.xml -Dgpg.keyname="Evans Ye (CODE SIGNING KEY) <evansye@apache.org>"

Login to https://repository.apache.org using your Apache SVN credentials. Click on Staging on the left. Then click on orgapachebigtop in the list of repositories. In the panel below you should see an open repository that is linked to your username and IP. Select this repository and click Close. This will close the repository from future deployments and make it available for others to view.

BIGTOP-1463 is open to track the improvements of the release process.

7. Copy Release Artifacts

The artifacts that end up in the distribution directory are the source distributions (along with their checksums and signatures), so they need to be copied from the Maven repo to a release candidate directory on apache dist, so the vote can begin:

Code Block

language	bash

VERSION=X.Y.Z
RC_NUMBER=n
REPOSITORY_ID=xxxx # Should be a number, for example 1013. Find the number in NEXUS staging repository: orgapachebigtop-1013

svn checkout https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/bigtop bigtop-dist-dev
cd bigtop-dist-dev

mkdir bigtop-${VERSION}-RC${RC_NUMBER}
cd bigtop-${VERSION}-RC${RC_NUMBER}
# md5 and sha1 are out-of-date and should not be used, see: http://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution#sigs-and-sums
wget --no-check-certificate https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachebigtop-${REPOSITORY_ID}/org/apache/bigtop/bigtop/${VERSION}/bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz
wget --no-check-certificate https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachebigtop-${REPOSITORY_ID}/org/apache/bigtop/bigtop/${VERSION}/bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz.asc
# manually generate sha256 and sha512
sha256sum bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz > bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz.sha256
sha512sum bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz > bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz.sha512

cd ..
svn add bigtop-${VERSION}-RC${RC_NUMBER}
svn ci -m "Apache Bigtop ${VERSION}-RC${RC_NUMBER}"

8. Sanity Check

Code Block

language	bash

VERSION=X.Y.Z
RC_NUMBER=n

cd /work
git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/bigtop.git -b release-${VERSION}-RC${RC_NUMBER} --depth 1
wget --no-parent --recursive --reject='index.html*' https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/bigtop/bigtop-${VERSION}-RC${RC_NUMBER}/

# make sure that the source code tree and the release tarball are identical except for .git/CI/site releated files
tar xf dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/bigtop/bigtop-${VERSION}-RC${RC_NUMBER}/bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz
diff -r bigtop bigtop-${VERSION}

# make sure that the signature and checksums are correct
cd dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/bigtop/bigtop-${VERSION}-RC${RC_NUMBER}
gpg --verify bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz.asc bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz
diff <(sha256sum bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz) bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz.sha256 
diff <(sha512sum bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz) bigtop-${VERSION}-project.tar.gz.sha512 

# make sure that all files exist and their signatures are correct
for i in $(find repos -not -name '*.asc' -type f); do echo ${i}; gpg --verify ${i}.asc ${i}; done

5.5. Upload to S3

The easiest way to upload artifacts to S3 is via your own AWS account. Add your account(email) to bigtop's bucket in the section "Access for other AWS accounts":

Image Removed

Once permission granted, you're able to use your account's access key and secret key with aws s3 sync command for upload:

No Format
aws s3 sync --acl public-read ./ubuntu-16.04/ s3://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.4.0/ubuntu/16.04/amd64/

The directory layouts on S3 bucket looked like the following:

No Format

repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/centos/6/x86_64
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/centos/7/x86_64
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/fedora/25/x86_64
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/opensuse/42.1/x86_64
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/debian/8/x86_64
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/ubuntu/16.04/x86_64

For YUM repos, upload files /tmp/centos-7/* into repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/centos/7/x86_64/. For example:

No Format
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/centos/7/x86_64/alluxio repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/centos/7/x86_64/ambari ... repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/centos/7/x86_64/repodata ...

For APT repos, upload files /tmp/debian-8/* into repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/debian/8/x86_64/. For example:

No Format

repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/debian/8/x86_64/conf
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/debian/8/x86_64/db
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/debian/8/x86_64/dists
repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/debian/8/x86_64/pool

5.6. Create repo files

Create one for each of our Distro. Following are examples for YUM and APT:

No Format

# YUM
cat > bigtop.repo <<__EOT__
[bigtop]
name=Bigtop
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
type=NONE
baseurl=http://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/centos/7/x86_64
gpgkey=https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/bigtop/KEYS
__EOT__
 
gpg --detach-sign --armor bigtop.repo
 
# APT
cat > bigtop.list <<__EOT__
deb http://repos.bigtop.apache.org/releases/1.2.1/debian/8/x86_64	bigtop contrib
__EOT__
 
gpg --detach-sign --armor bigtop.list

Add your signed armored GPG key to repos directory to ease the key import for the users

No Format
gpg --armor --export <your name> >> GPG-KEY-bigtop gpg --detach-sign --armor GPG-KEY-bigtop

Result looks like below:

No Format
GPG-KEY-bigtop GPG-KEY-bigtop.asc centos7/ debian9/ fedora26/ opensuse42.3/ ubuntu16.04/

5.7. Commit repo files into https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/bigtop/repos

6. Build and Deploy Artifacts

First we need to prepare a build environment. Mac OS X is unlikely supported because we'll run through some tests that depends on the OS. Here I'm running on Ubuntu-14.04 (There's an issue for running on 16.04 traced by BIGTOP-2830).

No Format
cd ~/ docker run -ti -u jenkins -v $PWD:/tmp bigtop/slaves:trunk-ubuntu-14.04 bash -l # The subsequence commands should be executed inside the docker container cp -r /tmp/.gnupg ~/

Create a maven settings file ~/.m2/settings.xml with the following content:

No Format

<settings>
   <servers>
      <server>
         <id>apache.snapshots.https</id>
         <username>APACHE-ID</username>
         <password>APACHE-PASSWORD</password>
      </server>
      <server>
         <id>apache.staging.https</id>
         <username>APACHE-ID</username>
         <password>APACHE-PASSWORD</password>
      </server>
      <server>
         <id>apache.releases.https</id>
         <username>APACHE-ID</username>
         <password>APACHE-PASSWORD</password>
      </server>
   </servers>
   <profiles>
      <profile>
         <id>gpg</id>
         <properties>
            <gpg.executable>gpg</gpg.executable>
            <gpg.passphrase>GPG-PASSWORD</gpg.passphrase>
         </properties>
      </profile>
   </profiles>
   <activeProfiles>
      <activeProfile>gpg</activeProfile>
   </activeProfiles>
</settings>

Build the artifacts:

No Format
mvn site mvn -Prelease package assembly:single

The following command deploys the binary release artifacts for iTest, tests and other helper files, checksums, and signatures (you will need to enter a GPG passphrase) to the Apache Staging repo.

No Format

mvn deploy -Prelease -f pom.xml
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-test-framework/pom.xml
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-tests/test-artifacts/pom.xml
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-tests/test-execution/pom.xml

For the last step to succeed you'd need to export HADOOP_HOME and HADOOP_CONF_DIR (BIGTOP-1464): the values don't matter - it is just a workaround. If this step fails with an Access denied error check that you have the required permissions on Nexus.

If the deployment step fails with an Access denied error check that you have the required permissions on Nexus.

If you have multiple keys, the build process seems to pick up the first one w/o asking. Make sure you're using the CODE SIGNING KEY by explicitly specifying it. For example:

No Format

mvn deploy -Prelease -f pom.xml -Dgpg.keyname="Evans Ye (CODE SIGNING KEY) <evansye@apache.org>"
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-test-framework/pom.xml -Dgpg.keyname="Evans Ye (CODE SIGNING KEY) <evansye@apache.org>"
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-tests/test-artifacts/pom.xml -Dgpg.keyname="Evans Ye (CODE SIGNING KEY) <evansye@apache.org>"
mvn deploy -Prelease -f bigtop-tests/test-execution/pom.xml -Dgpg.keyname="Evans Ye (CODE SIGNING KEY) <evansye@apache.org>"

Login to https://repository.apache.org using your Apache SVN credentials. Click on Staging on the left. Then click on orgapachebigtop in the list of repositories. In the panel below you should see an open repository that is linked to your username and IP. Select this repository and click Close. This will close the repository from future deployments and make it available for others to view.

BIGTOP-1463 is open to track the improvements of the release process.

7. Copy Release Artifacts

The artifacts that end up in the distribution directory are the source distributions (along with their checksums and signatures), so they need to be copied from the Maven repo to a release candidate directory on apache dist, so the vote can begin:

No Format

VERSION=X.Y.Z
REPOSITORY_ID=xxxx # Should be a number, for example 1013. Find the number in NEXUS staging repository: orgapachebigtop-1013
 
svn checkout https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/bigtop bigtop-dist-dev
cd bigtop-dist-dev

mkdir bigtop-$VERSION-RC1
cd bigtop-$VERSION-RC1
# md5 and sha1 are out-of-date and should not be used, see: http://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution#sigs-and-sums
wget --no-check-certificate https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachebigtop-$REPOSITORY_ID/org/apache/bigtop/bigtop/$VERSION/bigtop-$VERSION-project.tar.gz
wget --no-check-certificate https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachebigtop-$REPOSITORY_ID/org/apache/bigtop/bigtop/$VERSION/bigtop-$VERSION-project.tar.gz.asc
# manually generate sha256 and sha512
sha256sum bigtop-$VERSION-project.tar.gz > bigtop-$VERSION-project.tar.gz.sha256
sha512sum bigtop-$VERSION-project.tar.gz > bigtop-$VERSION-project.tar.gz.sha512

cd ..
svn add bigtop-$VERSION-RC1
svn ci -m "Apache Bigtop $VERSION-RC1"

8. Sanity Check

TODO

Check the SHA1 checksums

9. Run the Vote

Run the vote on the dev@bigtop.apache.org

Here is an example email:

No Format

To: "Bigtop Developers List" <dev@bigtop.apache.org>
Subject: [VOTE] Release Bigtop version 1.1.0

This is the vote for release 1.1.0 of Apache Bigtop.

It fixes the following issues:
        https://issuesdist.apache.org/repos/dist/jiradev/securebigtop/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12311420&version=12324841

The vote will be going for at least 72 hours and will be closed on Wednesday,
February 3rd, 2016 at noon PDT.  Please download, test and vote with

[ ] +1, accept RC1 as the official 1.1.0 release of Apache Bigtop
[ ] +0, I don't care either way,
[ ] -1, do not accept RC1 as the official 1.1.0 release of Apache Bigtop, because...

Source and binary files:
        1.1.0-rc1

Maven staging repo:
		https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachebigtop-[YOUR REPOSITORY ID]

The git tag to be voted upon is release-1.1.0

Bigtop's KEYS file containing PGP keys we use to sign the release:
        https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/bigtop/KEYS

The release needs 3 +1 votes from the PMC.

10. Roll Out

Assuming the vote passes, the release can be rolled out as follows:

Move Artifacts into Place

TODO Update the instructions as per new use of apache dist

This step makes the artifacts available on the mirrors.

Code Block

language	bash

VERSION=X.Y.Z #Example: 1.3.0
CANDIDATE=C #Example: RC2
svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/bigtop
cd bigtop
svn mv https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/bigtop/1.1.0-rc1

Maven staging repo:
		bigtop-$VERSION-$CANDIDATE https://repositorydist.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachebigtop-[YOUR REPOSITORY ID]

The git tag to be voted upon is release-1.1.0

Bigtop's KEYS file containing PGP keys we use to sign the release:
        https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/bigtop/KEYS

No Format

VERSION=X.Y.Z #Example: 1.3.0

svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/bigtop
cd bigtop
svn mv https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/bigtop/bigtop-$VERSION-$CANDIDATE https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/bigtop/bigtop-$VERSION
rm stable
ln -s bigtop-$VERSION stable
svn commit

Log in to https://repository.apache.org, click on Staging on the left. Select the repository that you closed earlier, and click Release, using a description like "Apache Bigtop X.Y.Z artifacts". This will make the artifacts publicly available.

You'll get an email from "Apache Reporter Service" asking to update the release info. If you aren't a member of the PMC, ask someone to log in and enter the release name and date.

Create permanent release tag under rel/

Code Block
git checkout release-x.y.z git tag rel/x,y,z -u <signing key ID> git push --tags

Wait 24 Hours

It takes up to 24 hours for all the mirrors to sync, so don't announce the new release just yet.

Build and Deploy Site

Full version of this procedure is described and maintained in Deploying Bigtop's Apache Website

No Format
mvn site-deploy

This will deploy the generated website to /www/bigtop.apache.org/ on people.apache.org. You can SSH there to check that things look OK.Once the deployment is done you need to publish new website via https://cms.apache.org/bigtop/: login and click "Publish bigtop site" link. Otherwise the content won't get propagated.

It will take an hour or so for the website to become live, but you can inspect the website by temporarily setting your browser proxy to see the new, unmirrored content (I used FoxyProxy in Firefox) as described in http://www.apache.org/dev/project-site.html.

.org/repos/dist/release/bigtop/bigtop-$VERSION
rm stable
ln -s bigtop-$VERSION stable
svn commit

The last line is to remove the previous version, since only the most recent version on a particular branch should be in the dist directory (older versions are archived automatically, see http://archive.apache.org/dist/bigtop/ and http://www.apache.org/dev/mirrors.html).

Log in to https://repository.apache.org, click on Staging on the left. Select the repository that you closed earlier, and click Release, using a description like "Apache Bigtop X.Y.Z artifacts". This will make the artifacts publicly available.

You'll get an email from "Apache Reporter Service" asking to update the release info. If you aren't a member of the PMC, ask someone to log in and enter the release name and date.

Create permanent release tag under rel/

Code Block

language	bash

git checkout release-x.y.z
git tag rel/x.y.z -u <signing key ID>
git push --tags

Wait 24 Hours

~~It takes up to 24 hours for all the mirrors to sync, so don't announce the new release just yet.~~

We had to wait 24 hours before, but it's not true now since ASF adopted CDN instead of mirror sites. According to the FAQs of the ASF infra:

Apache uses a global content distribution network (CDN) which collects new releases almost as soon as you post them.
The files therefore become available for download almost immediately. You probably don't need to wait more than fifteen minutes before announcing a release.

Build and Deploy Site

Update files under src/site by referring to past commits such as https://github.com/apache/bigtop/commit/678375eb75f7367f9114a3ad8087ba40f21444b6 or https://github.com/apache/bigtop/commit/d5c45a2879f8e3a8d29a36386ad8904a4e71a274. Commit into master and push them.

Login to the Jenkins server provided by ASF Infra. Open our website publishing pipeline and run it from the "Build Now" menu. It checks out the master branch with your update from our git repository, runs mvn site, copies generated webpages into the asf-site branch, and commits them. It automatically updates our website thanks to .asf.yaml.

(If the above process doesn't seem to work correctly just like

Jira

server	ASF JIRA
columns	key,summary,type,created,updated,due,assignee,reporter,priority,status,resolution
serverId	5aa69414-a9e9-3523-82ec-879b028fb15b
key	BIGTOP-3467

, you can generate a website locally and push it to the asf-site branch directly as a workaround.)Remember to update download page accordingly.

As said in

Jira

server	ASF JIRA
serverId	5aa69414-a9e9-3523-82ec-879b028fb15b
key	BIGTOP-1162

, remove old releases to reduce the loading for apache mirror. The older releases are available in Apache archive server(older versions are archived automatically, see http://archive.apache.org/dist/bigtop/ and http://www.apache.org/dev/mirrors.html).

noformat

Code Block

...

It should contain links to all current and archived releases along with links to KEYS, checksums, and signatures for all releases.
The links on the page need to be links to release artifacts, not links to directories.
The links to the asc and sha files should refer to archives only for non-current releases. The current release links should be to apache.org/dist, not archive.apache.org/dist.

12. Add a release page on Bigtop Wiki

Copy a new page from previous release page: Ex: Bigtop 1.4.0 Release
Edit to update the content. Basically just copy & paste from existing materials.
Update links:
- Index
- Releases

13. Add the Next Release to JIRA

Add the next version number (e.g. 0.2.0 after 0.1.0) to JIRA using this
link: https://issues.apache.org/jira/plugins/secureservlet/project/ManageVersions.jspa?pid=12311420.-config/BIGTOP/administer-versions?status=unreleased

In JIRA mark the released version as "released" on the "manage versions" page. Be sure to fill in a date if not already specified.
