Release Process#

Making a new release involves the following steps:

  1. Update version_tuple in lisa.version.

  2. Ensure LISA as a whole refers to relevant versions of:

    • Alpine Linux in lisa._kmod

    • Ubuntu in Vagrantfile

    • Binary dependencies in lisa._assets

    • Android SDK installed by install_base.sh

    • Java version used by Android SDK in install_base.sh

  3. Ensure LISA can work with currently published version of devlib.

  4. Create a vX.Y.Z tag.

  5. Make the Python wheel. See tools/make-release.sh for some indications on that part.

  6. Install that wheel in a _fresh_ environment. Ensure that the VM is reinstalled from scratch.

  7. Run tools/tests.sh in the VM and ensure no deprecated item scheduled for removal in the new version is still present in the sources (should result in import-time exceptions).

  8. Ensure all CIs in use are happy.

  9. Push the vX.Y.Z tag in the main repo

  10. Update the release branch to be at the same commit as the vX.Y.Z tag.

  11. Upload the wheel on PyPI.
