TODO

• (.) 01/10/17 a successful release sequence should also check in the modified POM files, so they won't show up in the git status command.

• jboss-datagrid-7 installation fails because there is no .install

NOMBP2:jboss-datagrid-7 ovidiu$ release snapshot
no changes added to commit

[warn]: commit did not succeed, maybe because there was nothing to commit
1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-1 source push ok
WARN  SequenceController: failed to undo publish sequence: undo() NOT YET IMPLEMENTED
WARN  SequenceController: failed to undo build sequence: undo() NOT YET IMPLEMENTED
[error]: no installation script /Users/ovidiu/runtime/jboss-datagrid-7/bin/.install found or the file is not executable

• I need the rollback functionality working to trust the tool.

• after release, implicitly report the current version (essentially executing the equivalent of release info)

• 12/15/16 Attempted to run release --help and got error. Help should work.

NOMBP2:gld ovidiu$ release --help
ERROR CommandLineApplication: internal error
java.lang.NullPointerException
	at io.novaordis.release.ReleaseCommand.execute(ReleaseCommand.java:173)

• Manual - clean up and coalesce Nort_User_Manual
• Installation Sequence
  • Implement the equivalent of install -f (I can avoid it if I simply create a new snapshot), it should be easy now
  • If the installation directory exists, unzip will ask for options, and I can’t see that so it will look like the program blocked.

• undo/rollback functionality:
  • undo functionality in the JVM shutdown hook.
  • Sequences should have "rollback()" methods, not undo().
  • Test MavenProject.undo(), MavenModule.undo().
  • Rollback Git tagging:

4.2.2 source commit ok
fatal: tag 'release-4.2.2' already exists
WARN  SequenceController: failed to undo build sequence: undo() NOT YET IMPLEMENTED
[error]: failed to tag the local source repository

The undo solution for git tagging is:

git tag -d release-4.2.2
git push origin :refs/tags/release-4.2.2

• model
  • A BINARY_DISTRIBUTION can have multiple extensions, not just one (“zip”) – refactor ArtifactType, see where we’re using extension and see what we can replace with.

• 11/26/16 prevent the embedded installation script .install to accidentally overwrite the installation it is part of. Probably the best protection is to delete it.

• GitHub Release
  • For non-snapshot releases, collect release-notes.md, query if they’re fine and make a GitHub release via API. It should be part of the publish sequence. Then clean release-notes.md.
