## A maintainer's guide to releasing Docker
|
|
|
|
So you're in charge of a Docker release? Cool. Here's what to do.
|
|
|
|
If your experience deviates from this document, please document the changes
|
|
to keep it up-to-date.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 1. Pull from master and create a release branch
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout master
|
|
git pull
|
|
git checkout -b bump_$VERSION
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Update CHANGELOG.md
|
|
|
|
You can run this command for reference:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
LAST_VERSION=$(git tag | grep -E "v[0-9\.]+$" | sort -nr | head -n 1)
|
|
git log $LAST_VERSION..HEAD
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each change should be formatted as ```BULLET CATEGORY: DESCRIPTION```
|
|
|
|
* BULLET is either ```-```, ```+``` or ```*```, to indicate a bugfix,
|
|
new feature or upgrade, respectively.
|
|
|
|
* CATEGORY should describe which part of the project is affected.
|
|
Valid categories are:
|
|
* Builder
|
|
* Documentation
|
|
* Hack
|
|
* Packaging
|
|
* Remote API
|
|
* Runtime
|
|
|
|
* DESCRIPTION: a concise description of the change that is relevant to the
|
|
end-user, using the present tense. Changes should be described in terms
|
|
of how they affect the user, for example "new feature X which allows Y",
|
|
"fixed bug which caused X", "increased performance of Y".
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
+ Builder: 'docker build -t FOO' applies the tag FOO to the newly built
|
|
container.
|
|
* Runtime: improve detection of kernel version
|
|
- Remote API: fix a bug in the optional unix socket transport
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Change the contents of the VERSION file
|
|
|
|
### 4. Run all tests
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
go test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 5. Commit and create a pull request
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git add CHANGELOG.md
|
|
git commit -m "Bump version to $VERSION"
|
|
git push origin bump_$VERSION
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 6. Get 2 other maintainers to validate the pull request
|
|
|
|
### 7. Merge the pull request and apply tags
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout master
|
|
git merge bump_$VERSION
|
|
git tag -a v$VERSION # Don't forget the v!
|
|
git tag -f -a latest
|
|
git push
|
|
git push --tags
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 8. Publish binaries
|
|
|
|
To run this you will need access to the release credentials.
|
|
Get them from [the infrastructure maintainers](
|
|
https://github.com/dotcloud/docker/blob/master/hack/infrastructure/MAINTAINERS).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker build -t releasedocker .
|
|
docker run \
|
|
-e AWS_S3_BUCKET=get-nightly.docker.io \
|
|
-e AWS_ACCESS_KEY=$(cat ~/.aws/access_key) \
|
|
-e AWS_SECRET_KEY=$(cat ~/.aws/secret_key) \
|
|
-e GPG_PASSPHRASE=supersecretsesame \
|
|
releasedocker
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It will build and upload the binaries on the specified bucket (you should
|
|
use get-nightly.docker.io for general testing, and once everything is fine,
|
|
switch to get.docker.io).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 9. Rejoice!
|
|
|
|
Congratulations! You're done.
