# Releasing ## Step 1: Create a Release on Github 1. Navigate to https://github.com/mattkae/miracle-wm/releases 2. Draft a new release 3. Name the tag `v.X.Y.Z` 4. Title the release `v.X.Y.Z` 5. Target a branch, most likely `master` 6. Describe the release (You may generate release notes, but please make sure that they make sense before doing so) ## Step 2: Snap Release 1. Check out the commit that you just released in Step 1 2. Bump the version number in `snap/snapcraft.yaml` to the `X.Y.Z` 3. Commit this buumped version 4. Next (this part is silly), comment out the `override-pull` of the `miracle-wm` part 5. Run `snapcraft` 6. Finally, run `snapcraft upload --release=stable ./miracle-wm_*.snap` TODO: Implement https://github.com/mattkae/miracle-wm/issues/59 to fix the weirdness of this process ## Step 3: Deb Release 1. Clone the repo (make sure that the folder is called `miracle-wm`) 2. Update `debian/changelog` with: - Version `X.Y.Z-distro` (where `distro` is "noble", or "mantic") - The same content as you in the Github release - A correct current timestamp - `mantic` as the release (repeat `noble`) 3. Next: ```sh cd miracle-wm ./tools/publish-ppa.sh ``` 4. Navigate to https://launchpad.net/~matthew-kosarek/+archive/ubuntu/miracle-wm 5. Wait for the CI to finish, and the package should be ready Note that you should rebuild for `mantic` and `noble`. Follow the instructions to make sure that it uploads. ## Step 4: RPM Release Before following these steps, make sure that you've at least followed [this tutorial](https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/create-rpm-package). 1. Open up `rpm/miracle-wm.spec` 2. Update the version to `X.Y.Z` 3. Updated `BuildRequires` or `Requires` if need be 4. Add a new entry to the changelog with the same data that is in the Github release, your user name, and a correct timestamp 5. Move to a directory above `miracle-wm` and run: ``` tar --create --file miracle-wm-X.Y.Z.tar.gz miracle-wm ``` 6. `mv miracle-wm-X.Y.Z.tar.gz ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES` 7. `cp miracle-wm/specs/miracle-wm.spec ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/` 8. `rpmbuild -bb ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/miracle-wm.spec` 9. After the build, you should be able to install your rpm: ```sh sudo dnf install ~/rpmbuild/RPMS//miracle-wm-X.Y.Z-...rpm ```
