Scripts to help with releasing software with Zest's conventions
Project description
Zest release scripts
Summary: package releasing made easy.
easy_install this in a virtualenv or globally. It gives you some commands to help in releasing python packages. They must be run in a subversion checkout. These are the commands:
prerelease: ask the user for a version number (give a sane default), update the setup.py or version.txt and the HISTORY.txt with this and offer to commit those changes to subversion.
release: copy the the trunk or branch of the current checkout and create a subversion tag of it. Offer to register and upload a source dist of this package to PyPI (Python Package Index). Note: if the package has not been registered yet, we will not do that for you. You must register the package manually (python setup.py register) so this remains a conscious decision. The main reason is that you want to avoid having to say: “Oops, I uploaded our client code to the internet; and this is the initial version with the plaintext root passwords.”
postrelease: ask the user for a version number (give a sane default), add a development marker to it, update the setup.py or version.txt and the HISTORY.txt with this and offer to commit those changes to subversion.
fullrelease: all of the above in order.
Changelog for zest.releaser
1.3 (2008-10-23)
Moved stabilize script to zest.stabilizer so that zest.releaser is just for releasing individual packages. Nice, tidy, reusable. [reinout]
Allowing ‘-v’ option on all commands: it gives you debug-level logging. [reinout]
1.2 (2008-10-16)
We now prefer the version from setup.py over any version.txt file found. When getting or changing the version we get/change the setup.py version when it differs from the found version.txt version. [maurits]
1.1 (2008-10-15)
Cleaned out zest-specific stuff. Cleaned up ‘release’. [reinout]
1.0 (2008-10-15)
Stabilize looks up the most recent tag of our development packages and uses gp.svndevelop to allow svn checkouts as development eggs. [reinout]
Do not look for version.txt in directories that are not handled by subversion. Use case: Products.feedfeeder, which has a buildout.cfg and so can have a parts directory with lots of version.txt files… [maurits]
0.9 (2008-10-02)
release: offer to register and upload the egg to the cheese shop. After that you still have the option to upload to our own tgz server. [maurits]
postrelease: for the suggestion of a new version simply try add 1 to the last character in the version; the previous logic failed for example for ‘1.0b3’. [maurits]
prerelease: ask user to enter next version (give him a suggestion). Handy when you want to change ‘1.0b3 dev’ into ‘1.0’. [maurits]
Started ‘stabilize’. [reinout]
0.8 (2008-09-26)
fullrelease: change back to the original directory after each pre/actual/post release step. [maurits]
release: switch back to original directory when ready to fix ‘commit to tag’ error. [maurits]
prerelease: quit when no version is found. [maurits]
Reverted sleeping fix from 0.7 as it did not work. [maurits]
0.7 (2008-09-26)
fullrelease: hopefully fix a ‘commit on tag’ bug by sleeping three seconds before doing the post release. [maurits]
0.6 (2008-09-26)
Added fullrelease script that does a prerelease, actual release and post release in one go. [maurits]
0.5 (2008-09-26)
Factored part of prerelease.check_version() out into utils.cleanup_version(). We now use that while setting the version in the history during postrelease. [maurits]
Add newline at the end of the generated version.txt. [maurits]
0.4 (2008-09-26)
Made the logging userfriendly.
0.3 (2008-09-26)
Postrelease: Better injection of history. Various other robustness fixes.
0.2 (2008-09-26)
postrelease: added suggestion for new version (a plain enter is enough to accept it). [reinout]
prerelease: ask before changing version + solidified regex for heading detection. [reinout]
prerelease: detect non-development versions better and change them. [maurits]
prerelease: made the commit message read: ‘Preparing release xxx’. [maurits]
postrelease: made the new version something like ‘1.0 dev’. [maurits]
postrelease: we now add some lines to the history now. [maurits]
prerelease: try changing the version to a non-development version, stripping off something like ‘(…)’. [maurits]
release: Refactored so release.py has the ‘main’ function required by setup.py. [maurits]
0.1 (2008-09-24)
Got a basic version of the prerelease script working (version check, history file updating, committing). [reinout]
Started by copying the guidelines script. [reinout]
