Overview

Steps detailing a release (4.0 is given as an example).

1. Create a rel-400 branch from master in the git repo.

2. Release an online development demo that uses the rel-400 branch and updates daily.

  • Also provide links for downloading rel-400 daily builds/packages to allow testing of installation and upgrading by testers

3. Publish installation, upgrade, and downloading instructions

3. Finalize the translations in the rel-400 branch.

4. Bug fix and finalize the rel-400 branch.

5. Create a list of new features in the rel-400 branch (since the last official release)

6. Prepare the Ubuntu/debian package

  • Ensure following files are updated at openemr/contrib/util/ubuntu_package_scripts/production/ in codebase:
  • control
  • Update Version
  • Update Installed-Size (just estimate it, doesn't need to be accurate)
  • Add new package dependencies (if pertinent, for example in 4.0.0, added php5-curl and php5-mcrypt)
  • README.Debian
  • Change the dates at bottom of file to release date (use date -R to get correctly formatted date).
  • changelog.Debian
  • Add entry for new version:
openemr (4.0.0-1) stable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version

 -- Brady Miller <brady@sparmy.com>  Fri, 25 Mar 2011 22:46:08 -0700
  • copyright
  • Add current date near top (use date -R to get correctly formatted date)
  • Modify the copyright years (two of them), if needed
  • preinst
  • Update the algorithm to upgrade the previous version correctly (note that the release after 4.0.0 will need to add some code for the differences in where the version is stored in pre vs post 4.0)

7. Release rel-400 branch by tagging in git repo with v4_0_0.

  • Things to remember before tagging the release.
  • Remove -dev from $v_tag (make it blank) in the version.php file
  • Ensure the 'allow_debug_language' global in locale section in library/globals.inc.php is defaulted to 0
  • Now ready to tag the release. Login into the sourceforge shell and go to the git repo and type:
git tag v4_0_0 rel-400

8. Build the tar.gz, zip and deb packages from v4_0_0.

Here is a script that automates the below release builds below: http://gist.github.com/884734
