Building a Compose release

Prerequisites

The release scripts require the following tools installed on the host:

To get started with a new release

Create a branch, update version, and add release notes by running make-branch

    ./script/release/make-branch $VERSION [$BASE_VERSION]

$BASE_VERSION will default to master. Use the last version tag for a bug fix release.

As part of this script you'll be asked to:

Update the version in docs/install.md and compose/__init__.py.

If the next release will be an RC, append rcN, e.g. 1.4.0rc1.
Write release notes in CHANGES.md.

Almost every feature enhancement should be mentioned, with the most visible/exciting ones first. Use descriptive sentences and give context where appropriate.

Bug fixes are worth mentioning if it's likely that they've affected lots of people, or if they were regressions in the previous version.

Improvements to the code are not worth mentioning.

When a PR is merged into master that we want in the release

Check out the bump branch and run the cherry pick script

 git checkout bump-$VERSION
 ./script/release/cherry-pick-pr $PR_NUMBER

When you are done cherry-picking branches move the bump version commit to HEAD

 ./script/release/rebase-bump-commit
 git push --force $USERNAME bump-$VERSION

To release a version (whether RC or stable)

Check out the bump branch and run the build-binaries script

    git checkout bump-$VERSION
    ./script/release/build-binaries

When prompted build the non-linux binaries and test them.

Download the osx binary from Bintray. Make sure that the latest build has finished, otherwise you'll be downloading an old binary.

https://dl.bintray.com/docker-compose/$BRANCH_NAME/
Download the windows binary from AppVeyor

https://ci.appveyor.com/project/docker/compose
Draft a release from the tag on GitHub (the script will open the window for you)

In the "Tag version" dropdown, select the tag you just pushed.

Paste in installation instructions and release notes. Here's an example - change the Compose version and Docker version as appropriate:

Firstly, note that Compose 1.5.0 requires Docker 1.8.0 or later.

Secondly, if you're a Mac user, the **[Docker Toolbox](https://www.docker.com/toolbox)** will install Compose 1.5.0 for you, alongside the latest versions of the Docker Engine, Machine and Kitematic.

Otherwise, you can use the usual commands to install/upgrade. Either download the binary:

    curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.5.0/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` > /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
    chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Or install the PyPi package:

    pip install -U docker-compose==1.5.0

Here's what's new:

...release notes go here...

Attach the binaries and script/run/run.sh
Add "Thanks" with a list of contributors. The contributor list can be generated by running ./script/release/contributors.
If everything looks good, it's time to push the release.
```
./script/release/push-release
```
Publish the release on GitHub.
Check that all the binaries download (following the install instructions) and run.
Email maintainers@dockerproject.org and engineering@docker.com about the new release.

If it’s a stable release (not an RC)

Merge the bump PR.
Make sure origin/release is updated locally:
```
 git fetch origin
```

Update the docs branch on the upstream repo:

 git push git@github.com:docker/compose.git origin/release:docs

Let the docs team know that it’s been updated so they can publish it.
Close the release’s milestone.

If it’s a minor release (1.x.0), rather than a patch release (1.x.y)

Open a PR against master to:
- update CHANGELOG.md to bring it in line with release
- bump the version in compose/__init__.py to the next minor version number with dev appended. For example, if you just released 1.4.0, update it to 1.5.0dev.
Get the PR merged.

Finally

Celebrate, however you’d like.
