The release process of a new version of KEDA involves the following:
Look at the last released version in the releases page: https://github.com/kedacore/keda/releases For example: currently it is 1.1.0 The next version will thus be 1.2.0
- Run the following command to update the version, setting the
VERSION
value to the next version, eg 1.2.0:VERSION=1.2.0 make set-version
Note: This will update the version labels and images in the yaml files located in the
deploy
folder as well as the version inversion.go
. - Commit these changes.
Provide a new section in CHANGELOG.md
for the new version that is being released along with the new features, patches and deprecations it introduces.
It should not include every single change but solely what matters to our customers, for example issue template that has changed is not important.
Creating a new release in the releases page (https://github.com/kedacore/keda/release) will trigger a GitHub workflow which will create a new image with the latest code and tagged with the next version (in this example 1.2.0) and also change the latest tag to point to this image as well.
Archives (.zip and .tar.gz) containing KEDA Deployment YAML files are also automatically created and attached to the Release as part of the workflow.
Note: The Docker Hub repo with all the different images can be seen here: https://hub.docker.com/r/kedacore/keda/tags
Publish documentation for new version on https://keda.sh.
See docs.
