plone.releaser 2.3.0

Installation

Do pip install plone.releaser or add it to your buildout:

[release]
recipe = zc.recipe.egg
eggs = plone.releaser

Main usage: release a package

In the Plone core development buildout go to src/some.package and run ../../bin/fullrelease. This calls the fullrelease command from zest.releaser, but with some extra hooks and packages available.

One nice thing it does: look in the checkouts and sources of your buildout.coredev checkout and update them: remove the released package from the checkouts and update the version.

If you are working on branch 6.1 of coredev, then we check if you also have branches 5.2 and 6.0 checked out. There we check if the branch of the released package is in the sources. If you make a release from package branch main and this is the branch used in the sources, then we update the checkouts and sources of this coredev branch as well.

After releasing a package, you should wait a few minutes before you manually push the changes to all coredev branches. This gives the PyPI mirrors time to catch up so the new release is available, so Jenkins and GitHub Actions can find it.

Main commands

Take several Buildout files and create pip/mxdev files out of them:

$ bin/manage buildout2pip

Take a Buildout versions file and create a pip constraints file out of it.

$ bin/manage versions2constraints

Generate a changelog with changes from all packages since a certain Plone release:

$ bin/manage changelog --start=6.1.0a1

Other commands

Some commands are not used much (by Maurits anyway) because they are less needed these days.

Check PyPi access to all Plone packages for a certain user:

$ bin/manage checkPypi timo

Check a package for updates:

$ bin/manage checkPackageForUpdates Products.CMFPlone

Report packages with changes:

$ bin/manage report --interactive

Pulls:

$ bin/manage pulls

Check checkout:

$ bin/manage check-checkout

2.3.0 (2024-05-30)

New features:

• Add buildout2pip manage command. [maurits] (#72)

Bug fixes:

• Catch error when trying to change coredev branches. Not everyone may have the branches available, or there may be some problem with it. (#67)

• No longer offer to push changes to buildout.coredev. This is no longer what we ever want: the newly uploaded package will not yet be available on all PyPI mirrors. Fixes issue 69. [maurits] (#69)

Internal:

• Update configuration files. [plone devs]

2.2.2 (2024-04-16)

Bug fixes:

• Preserve the case of package names in versions2constraints and friends. [maurits] (#65)

2.2.1 (2023-12-14)

Bug fixes:

• Manage changelog: read markdown files as well. [maurits] (#48)

2.2.0 (2023-11-30)

New features:

• Add bin/manage versions2constraints command. [maurits] (#3670)

Bug fixes:

• Fix setting version for non-lowercase package. In the previous release this would add a duplicate line. [maurits] (#58)

2.1.1 (2023-09-14)

Internal:

• Update configuration files. [plone devs] (a7c2b777)

2.0.1 (2023-06-22)

Bug fixes:

• Allow disabling PyPI rights check, as this does not know how to check organisations. Set env variable PLONE_RELEASER_CHECK_PYPI_ACCESS=0 if you want to disable it. Also, we do not check PyPI if the user is __token__, so using an API token. [maurits] (#50)

2.0.0 (2023-02-23)

Bug fixes:

• Fixed detecting changes in packages that are missing from checkouts. [maurits] (#35)

1.7.0 (unreleased)

New features:

• New zest.releaser hook: update other buildout.coredev branches as well. This automates the manual bookkeeping that one has to do whenever releasing packages: i.e. to check if the package just released is also checked out and used in other buildout.coredev branches. [gforcada]

• Ensure that selected packages are always kept on checkouts.cfg. [gforcada]

1.5.5 (2017-10-17)

Bug fixes:

• Skip over broken version definitions when building the unified changelog. [esteele]

Bug fixes:

1.5.0 (2016-02-27)

New:

• Added prerelease hooks to cleanup empty headers. [maurits]

• Add header ‘Incompatibilities:’ in postrelease. In prerelease check if at least one of New, Fixes, Incompatibilities is there. See https://github.com/plone/Products.CMFPlone/issues/1323 [maurits]

1.4 (2016-02-11)

New:

• Removed our ‘show changelog’ entry point. Required zest.releaser 6.6.0 that has this itself. [maurits]

• Show New: and Fixes: in unified changelog. [maurits]

• Require New: or Fixes: to be present in the changelog during prerelease. [maurits]

• Simplified showing last changelog entries. Requires zest.releaser 6.0 or higher. [maurits]

Fixes:

• Temporarily require simplejson. This is needed because launchpadlib requires lazr.restfulclient which needs a new release. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/lazr.restfulclient/+bug/1500460 [maurits]

1.3 (2015-09-27)

• Fail nicely if a Plone versions.cfg can’t be located [esteele]

• When showing the changelog, accept 1.7.2.1 as version. So loose version numbers instead of strict version numbers with only one or two dots. [maurits]

• Run git pull on buildout.coredev to make sure it is up-to-date. [timo]

• Refactor checkPackageForUpdates to be more flexible. Made it a class on its own module. [gforcada]

• Create a jenkins report based on checkPackageForUpdates. [gforcada]

1.2 (2015-03-21)

• Rename esteele.manager to plone.releaser. [timo]

• add command to set the package version in a versions config file [jfroche]

• return the new version number when appending jenkins build number to the versions of a package [jfroche]
