Packaging OpenDaylight Releases =============================== These docs are for Integration/Packaging committers to reference while they package OpenDaylight releases and service releases. Users should not, and would not be able to due to missing permissions, follow this guide. This process is not needed for Continuous Delivery pipeline packages, just formal releases. Building on CentOS Community Build System ----------------------------------------- OpenDaylight builds and hosts formal releases and service releases on the CentOS Community Build System (CBS). Building on the CBS requires human intervention, as the required credentials can't be stored on our build systems. Continuous Delivery builds are hosted on Nexus to remove this need for a human. Find the release tarball. Make sure it's the one that has been promoted to the opendaylight.releases Nexus repository, not the same build as a Release Candidate before promotion. The packaging logic will only give release version numbers for builds of artifacts from this release repository. https://nexus.opendaylight.org/content/repositories/opendaylight.release/org/opendaylight/integration/karaf/0.8.1/karaf-0.8.1.tar.gz Use the packaging-build-rpm job, for the right stream, to package the tarball. TODO: Document getting permission to run jobs on RelEng Jenkins. https://jenkins.opendaylight.org/releng/job/packaging-build-rpm-oxygen/ If it builds and passes tests, download the resulting source RPM from Nexus. https://nexus.opendaylight.org/content/repositories/opendaylight-oxygen-epel-7-x86_64-devel/ Build the SRPM on the CentOS CBS, using the build target for this release. TODO: Document adding build targets to CBS, only needed for new major releases TODO: Document getting CBS permissions cbs build nfv7-opendaylight-8-el7 opendaylight-8.1.0-1.el7.src.rpm After the SRPM uploads and the noarch RPM builds, tag it to the appropriate build tags for this release. If this is the first time tag has been used, you'll also need to add the package to the tag. Releases should typically be tagged to three related tags. * Candidate tag for this major version cbs add-pkg nfv7-opendaylight-8-candidate opendaylight --owner=dfarrell07 cbs tag-build nfv7-opendaylight-8-candidate opendaylight-8.1.0-1.el7 * Release tag for this major.minor version cbs add-pkg nfv7-opendaylight-81-release opendaylight --owner=dfarrell07 cbs tag-build nfv7-opendaylight-81-release opendaylight-8.1.0-1.el7 * Release tag for this major version cbs tag-build nfv7-opendaylight-8-release opendaylight-8.1.0-1.el7 It may be advisable to fully do the candidate tag first, and only once everything is verified working do the release tags. Wait for the repository to regenerate and show the new package. http://cbs.centos.org/repos/nfv7-opendaylight-8-candidate/x86_64/os/Packages/ Once the RPM is available on the CBS, test it with the test-rpm-master job. https://jenkins.opendaylight.org/releng/job/packaging-test-rpm-master/ Updating Docs ------------- Update the downloads page to point at the new RPM. https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=docs.git;a=blob;f=docs/downloads.rst Update the Int/Pack repositories docs with any repo additions/removals. :ref:`intpak-rpm-repos` Adding Example Configuration Files ---------------------------------- Add example configuration files for any new RPM repositories. https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=integration/packaging.git;a=tree;f=packages/rpm/example_repo_configs As a change that depends on the repository configuration file change, add a Packer variables file for the ODL version and CBS repository URL. https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=integration/packaging.git;a=tree;f=packer/vars TODO: Document building/pushing VMs/containers after INTPAK-12 automation Updating Tests for Release Events --------------------------------- Various release-related events require changes in packaging test coverage. Tests need to be updated when: * New releases or service releases are cut * Old releases or service releases go End-of-Life (EOL) * New branches are added * Branches go EOL * Old temporary autorelease, snapshot or multipatch builds expire (every 30-60 days) Updating Unit Tests +++++++++++++++++++ There are unit tests in Int/Pack that verify the Python build automation scripts. https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=integration/packaging.git;a=blob;f=packages/test_lib.py Update the unit tests by grepping around and copying examples. Updating Functional Tests +++++++++++++++++++++++++ There are functional tests in RelEng/Builder that build and test packages to verify build jobs. https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=releng/builder.git;a=tree;f=jjb/packaging Update the functional tests by grepping around and copying examples. Make sure to update both the test cases and the default parameters. Updating Puppet --------------- The puppet-opendaylight Rakefile, which drives our functional Beaker tests, needs to be updated when a new ODL major release comes out. It does not need to be updated for SRs because it pulls the latest from the -devel Nexus repo (for a diffrent value for on each puppet-opendaylight branch). The default rpm_repo param in manafests/params.pp and rspec-puppet unit/acceptance tests throughout the repo also need to be updated. They track the latest CD pipelines, so they need to be updated when new branches are cut and CD repos initiated. Updating Ansible ---------------- The default vars in vars/main.yml need to be updated for each major release and SR. Grep around to find the places to update. New example playbooks in the ansible-opendaylight/examples directory need to be added for each new branch-cutting/CD pipeline and major release. rpm__devel.yml rpm__release.yml Also update the playbook used in test-ansible-rpm script for each new CD repo. https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/gitweb?p=releng/builder.git;a=blob;f=jjb/packaging/test-ansible-rpm.sh
