|
||
|
||
|
||
### Bisq maintainers, suggestion for writing release notes
|
||
To be able to create release notes before you make the final release tag, you can temporarily create a local tag and
|
||
remove it afterwards again.
|
||
|
||
git tag v(new version, e.g. 0.9.4) #create tag
|
||
git tag -d v(new version, e.g. 0.9.4) #delete tag
|
||
|
||
Write release notes. git shortlog helps a lot, for example:
|
||
|
||
git shortlog --no-merges v(current version, e.g. 0.9.3)..v(new version, e.g. 0.9.4)
|
||
|
||
Generate list of authors:
|
||
|
||
git log --format='- %aN' v(current version, e.g. 0.9.3)..v(new version, e.g. 0.9.4) | sort -fiu
|
||
|
||
1. Prepare the release notes with major changes from user perspective.
|
||
2. Prepare a short version of the release notes for the in-app update popup
|
||
|
||
### Basic preparations
|
||
For releasing a new Bisq version you'll need Linux, Windows and macOS.
|
||
You can use a virtualization solution like [VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads) for this purpose.
|
||
|
||
#### VirtualBox recommended configuration
|
||
Although performance of VMs might vary based on your hardware configuration following setup works pretty well on macOS.
|
||
|
||
Use VirtualBox < 5.2.22: Using a more recent version makes VMs hardly usable on a MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2016)
|
||
with following configuration:
|
||
* System > Motherboard > Base Memory: 2048 MB
|
||
* System > Processor > Processor(s): 2 CPUs
|
||
* System > Processor > Execution Cap: 90%
|
||
* Display > Screen > Video Memory: 128 MB
|
||
* Display > Screen > Scale Factor: 200%
|
||
* Display > Screen > HiDPI Support: Use unscaled HiDPI Output (checked)
|
||
* Display > Screen > Acceleration: Enable 3D acceleration (checked)
|
||
|
||
##### Windows VM
|
||
* Windows 10 64bit
|
||
* Recommended virtual disk size: 55 GB
|
||
|
||
##### Linux VM
|
||
* Ubuntu 16.04.4 64bit
|
||
* Recommended virtual disk size: 15 GB
|
||
|
||
##### macOS VM
|
||
* macOS X 10.11 (El Capitan) 64bit
|
||
* Recommended virtual disk size: 40 GB
|
||
|
||
#### For every OS
|
||
|
||
* Install latest security updates
|
||
|
||
#### For Windows
|
||
|
||
* Update AntiVirus Software and virus definitions
|
||
* Install unicode version of [Inno Tools](http://www.jrsoftware.org/isdl.php)
|
||
* Run full AV system scan
|
||
|
||
### Build release
|
||
|
||
#### macOS
|
||
|
||
1. Make sure all version numbers are updated (update version variables and run [replace_version_number.sh](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/blob/master/bisq/desktop/package/macosx/replace_version_number.sh)).
|
||
2. Set environment variable e.g. export BISQ_GPG_USER=manfred@bitsquare.io to ~/.profile file or the like... (one time effort)
|
||
3. Update [vmPath variable](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/blob/b4b5d0bb12c36afbe1aa6611dd8451378df6db8c/desktop/package/macosx/create_app.sh#L42) if necessary
|
||
4. Run [create_app.sh](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/blob/master/desktop/package/macosx/create_app.sh)
|
||
|
||
Build output expected in deploy directory (opened after successful build process):
|
||
|
||
1. `Bisq-${NEW-VERSION}.dmg` macOS signed installer
|
||
2. `Bisq-${NEW-VERSION}.jar` Deterministic fat jar
|
||
3. `Bisq-${NEW-VERSION}.jar.txt` sha256 sum of deterministic fat jar
|
||
|
||
The build scripts also copies over the deterministic fat jar into the shared folders for the other VMs (Windows & Linux).
|
||
Before building the other binaries install the generated Bisq app on macOS and verify that everything works as expected.
|
||
|
||
#### Linux
|
||
|
||
* Run `desktop/package/linux/package.sh` from the shared VM folder
|
||
|
||
Build output expected:
|
||
|
||
1. `Bisq-${NEW-VERSION}.deb` package for distributions that derive from Debian
|
||
2. `Bisq-${NEW-VERSION}.rpm` package for distributions that derive from Redhat based distros
|
||
|
||
* Install and run generated package
|
||
|
||
#### Windows
|
||
|
||
* Run `desktop/package/windows/package.bat` from the shared VM folder
|
||
|
||
Build output expected:
|
||
|
||
1. `Bisq-${NEW-VERSION}.exe` Windows unsigned installer
|
||
2. `Bisq-${NEW-VERSION}.exe.txt` sha256 sum of installer
|
||
|
||
### Sign release on macOS
|
||
|
||
* Run [finalize.sh](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/blob/master/bisq/desktop/package/macosx/finalize.sh)
|
||
|
||
Build output expected:
|
||
|
||
1. `F379A1C6.asc` Sig key of Manfred Karrer
|
||
2. `5BC5ED73.asc` Sig key of Chris Beams
|
||
3. `29CDFD3B.asc`Sig key of Christoph Atteneder
|
||
4. `signingkey.asc` Fingerprint of key that was used for this builds
|
||
5. `Bisq-${NEW-VERSION}.jar.txt` Sha256 sum of deterministic fat jar
|
||
6. `Bisq-${NEW-VERSION}.dmg` macOS installer
|
||

|
||
|
||
* Run a AV scan over all files on the Windows VM where the files got copied over.
|
||
|
||
### Final test
|
||
|
||
* Make at least one mainnet test trade with some exotic currency to not interfere with real traders.
|
||
|
||
### Tag and push release to master
|
||
|
||
If all was successful:
|
||
|
||
* commit changes of new version number (update version number for release of e.g. v0.9.4)
|
||
* create tag for the release
|
||
```
|
||
git tag -s v(new version, e.g. 0.9.4) -m"Release v(new version, e.g. 0.9.4)"
|
||
```
|
||
* Revert back to SNAPSHOT where necessary (change version variable (e.g. 0.9.4) in shell script [insert_snapshot_version.sh](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/blob/master/desktop/package/macosx/insert_snapshot_version.sh) and run it) and commit these changes.
|
||
* Push all commits to master including the new tag
|
||
```
|
||
git push --tags origin master
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### GitHub
|
||
|
||
#### Upload preparations
|
||
|
||
* Check the fingerprint of the pgp key which was used for signing in signingkey.asc (e.g. 29CDFD3B for Christoph Atteneder)
|
||
* Add all files including signingkey.asc and the gpg pub keys to GitHub release page
|
||
* Check all uploaded files with [virustotal.com](https://www.virustotal.com)
|
||
* Select the release tag as the source for the GitHub release.
|
||
* Release on GitHub
|
||
|
||
#### Post GitHub release
|
||
* Apply “A newer version is already available! Please don’t use this version anymore.” to old GitHub releases.
|
||
* Merge the webpage PR and check if they got deployed properly.
|
||
* Start the Alert sender app (CMD + M) remove the old version and send the update message.
|
||
Check the checkbox for update, set the version number (e.g. 0.9.4) and add the short version of the release notes.
|
||
* After sending the Update message leave it running for about 1 minute to give time for good propagation.
|
||
* Make a backup of that alert sender app data directory
|
||
|
