# Workflow documentation
|
|
|
|
## `ci.yml`
|
|
|
|
Defines the Continuous Integration workflow for merging into the `master` branch.
|
|
|
|
## Releases
|
|
|
|
The workflows in this repository automate various things around releases.
|
|
The functionality is composed in such a way that a human can easily start the workflow at various points, i.e. instead of being an all-or-nothing automation, we can step in where necessary.
|
|
|
|
### Preview release
|
|
|
|
We have a rolling tag `preview` that always points to HEAD of `master`.
|
|
The [preview-release.yml](./preview-release.yml) workflow moves this tag to latest HEAD every time a PR gets merged.
|
|
It also creates a corresponding GitHub "pre-release".
|
|
|
|
### Building release binaries and attaching changelog
|
|
|
|
Whenever a new release is created, the [build-release-binaries.yml](build-release-binaries.yml) workflow will build the `swap` and `asb` binaries in release mode and attach them to the release as artifacts.
|
|
|
|
Because this workflow is triggered on every release, it works for:
|
|
|
|
- automatically created `preview` releases
|
|
- releases created through the GitHub web interface
|
|
- releases created by merging release branches into `master`
|
|
|
|
### Making a new release
|
|
|
|
To create a new release, one has to:
|
|
|
|
- Create a new branch
|
|
- Update the version in the [swap/Cargo.toml](../../swap/Cargo.toml) manifest file
|
|
- Update the Changelog (convert `Unreleased` section to a release)
|
|
- Make a commit
|
|
- Open and merge a PR
|
|
- Create a release from the resulting merge commit
|
|
|
|
To avoid errors in this process, we can automate it.
|
|
The [draft-new-release.yml](./draft-new-release.yml) workflow allows the user specify the desired version and the workflow will then open a PR that automates the above.
|
|
|
|
The created branch will follow the naming of `release/X.Y.Z` for the given version.
|
|
|
|
Any time a PR with such a branch name is merged, the [create-release.yml](./create-release.yml) workflow kicks in and creates a new release based on the resulting merge commit.
|
|
|
|
Because these two workflows are de-coupled, a user is free to create a release branch themselves if they wish to do so.
|
|
They may also side-step both of these workflows by creating a release manually using the Github web interface.
