stack-1.1.2: doc/MAINTAINER_GUIDE.md
# Maintainer guide
## Pre-release steps
* Ensure `release` and `stable` branches merged to `master`
* Ensure integration tests pass on a representative Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux (Linux
is handled by Jenkins automatically): `stack install --pedantic && stack test
--pedantic --flag stack:integration-tests` . The actual release script will
perform a more thorough test for every platform/variant prior to uploading, so
this is just a pre-check
* Ensure `stack haddock` works (Travis CI now does this)
* Stack builds with `stack-7.8.yaml` (Travis CI now does this)
* stack can build the wai repo
* Running `stack build` a second time on either stack or wai is a no-op
* Build something that depends on `happy` (suggestion: `hlint`), since `happy`
has special logic for moving around the `dist` directory
* In master branch:
* stack.cabal: bump the version number to release (even third
component)
* ChangeLog: rename the "unreleased changes" section to the new version
* Cut a release candidate branch `rc/vX.Y.Z` from master
* In master branch:
* stack.cabal: bump version number to unstable (odd third component)
* Changelog: add new "unreleased changes" section
* stack.yaml: bump to use latest LTS version, and check whether extra-deps
still needed
* In RC branch:
* Update the ChangeLog
([this comparison](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/compare/stable...master)
is handy):
* Check for any important changes that missed getting an entry in Changelog
* Check for any entries that snuck into the previous version's changes
due to merges
* Review documentation for any changes that need to be made
* Search for old Stack version, unstable stack version, and the next
"obvious" version in sequence (if doing a non-obvious jump) and replace
with new version
* Look for any links to "latest" documentation, replace with version tag
* Ensure all documentation pages listed in `mkdocs.yaml`
* Check that any new Linux distribution versions added to
`etc/scripts/release.hs` and `etc/scripts/vagrant-releases.sh`
* [Ubuntu](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases)
* [Debian](https://www.debian.org/releases/) (keep at least latest two)
* [CentOS](https://wiki.centos.org/Download)
* [Fedora](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases)
* Check for new FreeBSD release
* Check that no new entries need to be added to
[releases.yaml](https://github.com/fpco/stackage-content/blob/master/stack/releases.yaml),
[install_and_upgrade.md](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/blob/master/doc/install_and_upgrade.md),
and
`README.md`
* Remove unsupported/obsolete distribution versions from
[install_and_upgrade.md](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/blob/master/doc/install_and_upgrade.md),
and perhaps from the release process.
## Release process
See
[stack-release-script's README](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/blob/master/etc/scripts/README.md#prerequisites)
for requirements to perform the release, and more details about the tool.
* Create a
[new draft Github release](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/releases/new)
with tag and name `vX.Y.Z` (where X.Y.Z is the stack package's version), targetting the
RC branch
* On each machine you'll be releasing from, set environment variables:
`GITHUB_AUTHORIZATION_TOKEN`, `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`,
`AWS_DEFAULT_REGION`.
Note: since one of the tools (rpm-s3 on CentOS) doesn't support AWS temporary
credentials, you can't use MFA with the AWS credentials (`AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN`
is ignored).
* On a machine with Vagrant installed:
* Run `etc/scripts/vagrant-releases.sh`
* On Mac OS X:
* Run `etc/scripts/osx-release.sh`
* On Windows:
* Ensure your working tree is in `C:\stack` (or a similarly short path)
* Run `etc\scripts\windows-releases.bat`
* Release Windows installers. See
[stack-installer README](https://github.com/borsboom/stack-installer#readme)
* Publish Github release
* Upload package to Hackage: `stack upload . --pvp-bounds=both`
* On a machine with Vagrant installed:
* Run `etc/scripts/vagrant-distros.sh`
* Edit
[stack-setup-2.yaml](https://github.com/fpco/stackage-content/blob/master/stack/stack-setup-2.yaml),
and add the new linux64 stack bindist
* Activate version for new release tag on
[readthedocs.org](https://readthedocs.org/projects/stack/versions/), and
ensure that stable documentation has updated
* Submit a PR for the
[haskell-stack Homebrew formula](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/haskell-stack.rb)
* Be sure to update the SHA sum
* The commit message should just be `haskell-stack <VERSION>`
* [Flag the Arch Linux package as out-of-date](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/stack/flag/)
* Push signed Git tag, matching Github release tag name, e.g.: `git tag -u
0x575159689BEFB442 vX.Y.Z && git push origin vX.Y.Z`
* Reset the `release` branch to the released commit, e.g.: `git checkout release
&& git merge --ff-only vX.Y.Z && git push origin release`
* Update the `stable` branch similarly
* Delete the RC branch (locally and on origin)
* Upload haddocks to Hackage: `etc/scripts/upload-haddocks.sh`
* Merge any changes made in the RC/release/stable branches to master.
* Announce to haskell-cafe@haskell.org haskell-stack@googlegroups.com
commercialhaskell@googlegroups.com mailing lists
* Keep an eye on the
[Hackage matrix builder](http://matrix.hackage.haskell.org/package/stack)
## Setting up a Windows VM for releases
These instructions are a bit rough, but has the steps to get the Windows machine
set up.
1. Download VM image:
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/mac/
2. Launch the VM using Virtualbox and the image downloaded
3. Adjust settings:
* Number of CPUs: match the host
* Memory: at least 3 GB
* Video RAM: the minimum recommended by Virtualbox
* Enable 3D and 2D accelerated mode
* Enabled shared clipboard (both directions)
4. Install the VMware guest additions, and reboot
5. Configure a shared folder for your home directory on the host, and mount it on Z:
6. Install Windows SDK (for signtool):
http://microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=8279
7. Install msysgit: https://msysgit.github.io/
8. Install nsis-2.46.5-Unicode-setup.exe from http://www.scratchpaper.com/
9: Install Stack using the Windows 64-bit installer
10. Visit https://hackage.haskell.org/ in Edge to ensure system has correct CA
certificates
11. Get the object code certificate from
[password-store](https://github.com/fpco/password-store), in
`certificates/code_signing/fpcomplete_corporation_startssl_2015-09-22.pfx`.
Double click it in explorer and import it
12. Run in command prompt:
md C:\p
md C:\p\tmp
cd \p
md c:\tmp
13. Create `C:\p\env.bat`:
SET STACK_ROOT=C:\p\.sr
SET TEMP=C:\p\tmp
SET TMP=C:\p\tmp
SET PATH=C:\Users\IEUser\AppData\Roaming\local\bin;"c:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin";"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Bin";%PATH%
14. Run `C:\p\env.bat` (do this every time you open a new command prompt)
15. Import the `dev@fpcomplete.com` (0x575159689BEFB442) GPG secret key
16. Run in command prompt (adjust the `user.email` and `user.name` settings):
stack setup
stack install cabal-install
md %HOMEPATH%\.ssh
copy z:\.ssh\id_rsa %HOMEPATH%\.ssh
git config --global user.email manny@fpcomplete.com
git config --global user.name "Emanuel Borsboom"
git config --global push.default simple
