# Releasing Terraform
|
|
|
|
This document contains details about the Terraform release process.
|
|
|
|
## Schedule
|
|
|
|
Terraform currently has no fixed release schedule, the HashiCorp maintainers
|
|
can usually give a feel for roughly when the next release is planned.
|
|
|
|
## Versioning
|
|
|
|
As a pre-1.0 project, we use the MINOR and PATCH versions as follows:
|
|
|
|
* a `MINOR` version increment indicates a release that may contain backwards
|
|
incompatible changes
|
|
* a `PATCH` version increment indicates a release that may contain bugfixes as
|
|
well as additive (backwards compatible) features and enhancements
|
|
|
|
## Process
|
|
|
|
For maintainer documentation purposes, here is the current release process:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Verify tests pass
|
|
make test
|
|
|
|
# Prep release commit
|
|
export VERSION="vX.Y.Z"
|
|
# Edit CHANGELOG, adding current date to unreleased version header
|
|
# Edit version.go, setting VersionPrelease to empty string
|
|
|
|
# Snapshot dependency information
|
|
godep save
|
|
mv Godeps/Godeps.json deps/$(echo $VERSION | sed 's/\./-/g').json
|
|
rm -rf Godeps
|
|
|
|
# Make and tag release commit
|
|
git commit -a -m "${VERSION}"
|
|
git tag -m "${VERSION}" "${VERSION}"
|
|
|
|
# Build release in Vagrant machine
|
|
vagrant destroy -f; vagrant up # Build a fresh VM for a clean build
|
|
vagrant ssh
|
|
cd /opt/gopath/src/github.com/hashicorp/terraform/
|
|
make release
|
|
|
|
# Zip and push release to bintray
|
|
export BINTRAY_API_KEY="..."
|
|
./scripts/dist "X.Y.Z" # no `v` prefix here
|
|
|
|
# -- "Point of no return" --
|
|
# -- Process can be aborted safely at any point before this --
|
|
|
|
# Push the release commit and tag
|
|
git push origin master
|
|
git push origin vX.Y.Z
|
|
|
|
# Click "publish" on the release from the Bintray Web UI
|
|
|
|
# -- Release is complete! --
|
|
|
|
# Make a follow-on commit to master restoring VersionPrerelease to "dev" and
|
|
setting up a new CHANGELOG section.
|
|
```
