Release

How to

The release process is done by a github action. The workflow is available here. It has 3 steps

Build

• install dependencies
• run tests

Publish

• publish lerna packages with the current version in each package.json, if they are not already published

Tag and demo

• create a release tag with the changelog
• create the demo and publish it to <version>.talend.surge.sh (ex: 5_11_0.talend.surge.sh)

Prepare a new release

1. Checkout master and bump version. Example here is with a minor version

> git pull origin master
> yarn bump-version minor

2. Push a new branch

> git checkout -b `<username>/chore/release_<version>` (ex: `jsomsanith/chore/release_5_12_0`)
> git add .
> git commit -m 'chore: release <versions>' (ex: `chore: release v5.12.0`)
> git push origin <branch_name>

3. Create a Pull Request

Trigger the new release

1. To run the github action, just merge the release PR.

2. Check the changelog in the release tag. If the commit message is not well formatted, it can end up in the wrong part.
