Samza Release Procedure

Releasing Samza involves the following steps:

  • Send a [DISCUSS] to [email protected]. Example
  • Create the Release Candidate
  • Send a [VOTE] to [email protected]. Example
  • Wait till the [VOTE] completes and send [RESULT][VOTE]. Example
  • Publish source tarball to Apache SVN
  • Publish website documents for new release
  • Write a blog post on Apache Blog (Note: Apache blog editor is primitive. You have to provide HTML formatted document.)

The following sections will be focusing on creating the release candidate, publish the source tarball, and publish website documents.

Steps to release Samza binary artifacts

Before you start, here are a few prerequisite steps that would be useful later:

And before you proceed, do the following steps:

  • Create a branch $VERSION from the latest master branch.
  • Checkout the $VERSION branch.
  • Update the gradle.properties s.t. the following property is $VERSION w/o the suffix '-SNAPSHOT': version=$VERSION
  • Change the samza_executable variable in samza-test/src/main/python/configs/tests.json to $VERSION w/o the suffix '-SNAPSHOT'.
  • Change the samza-test versions in samza-test/src/main/config/join/README to $VERSION w/o the suffix '-SNAPSHOT'.
  • Change the executable version in samza-test/src/main/python/stream_processor.py to $VERSION w/o the suffix '-SNAPSHOT'.
  • Push the changes to the $VERSION branch

Validate Samza using all our supported build matrix.

    ./bin/check-all.sh

Run integration tests for YARN and standalone

    ./bin/integration-tests.sh . yarn-integration-tests
    ./bin/integration-tests.sh . standalone-integration-tests

To release to a local Maven repository:

    ./gradlew clean publishToMavenLocal

To build a tarball suitable for an ASF source release (and its accompanying MD5 file):

First, clean any non-checked-in files from git (this removes all such files without prompting):

    git clean -fdx

Alternatively, you can make a fresh clone of the repository to a separate directory:

    git clone http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/samza.git samza-release
    cd samza-release

Then build the source and samza-tools tarballs:

    ./gradlew clean sourceRelease && ./gradlew releaseToolsTarGz

Then sign them:

 gpg --sign --armor --detach-sig ./build/distribution/source/apache-samza-*.tgz
 gpg --sign --armor --detach-sig ./samza-tools/build/distributions/samza-tools-*.tgz

Create MD5 signatures:

 gpg --print-md MD5 ./build/distribution/source/apache-samza-*.tgz > ./build/distribution/source/apache-samza-*.tgz.md5
 gpg --print-md MD5 ./samza-tools/build/distributions/samza-tools-*.tgz > ./samza-tools/build/distributions/samza-tools-*.tgz.md5

Create SHA1 signatures:

 gpg --print-md SHA1 ./build/distribution/source/apache-samza-*.tgz > ./build/distribution/source/apache-samza-*.tgz.sha1
 gpg --print-md SHA1 ./samza-tools/build/distributions/samza-tools-*.tgz > ./samza-tools/build/distributions/samza-tools-*.tgz.sha1

Upload the build artifacts to your Apache home directory:

 sftp <apache-username>@home.apache.org
 cd public_html
 mkdir samza-$VERSION-rc0
 cd samza-$VERSION-rc0
 put ./build/distribution/source/apache-samza-$VERSION-src.* .
 put ./samza-tools/build/distributions/samza-tools-$VERSION.* .
 bye

Make a signed git tag for the release candidate (you may need to use -u to specify key id):

    git tag -s release-$VERSION-rc0 -m "Apache Samza $VERSION release candidate 0"

Push the release tag to remote repository:

    git push origin release-$VERSION-rc0

Edit $HOME/.gradle/gradle.properties and add your GPG key information (without the comments):

  signing.keyId=01234567                          # Your GPG key ID, as 8 hex digits
  signing.secretKeyRingFile=/path/to/secring.gpg  # Normally in $HOME/.gnupg/secring.gpg
  signing.password=YourSuperSecretPassphrase      # Plaintext passphrase to decrypt key
  nexusUsername=yourname                          # Your username on Apache's LDAP
  nexusPassword=password                          # Your password on Apache's LDAP

Putting your passwords there in plaintext is unfortunately unavoidable. The nexus plugin supports asking for them interactively, but unfortunately there's a Gradle issue which prevents us from reading keyboard input (because we need org.gradle.jvmargs set).

Build binary artifacts and upload them to the staging repository:

 # Set this to the oldest JDK which we are currently supporting for Samza.
 # If it's built with Java 8, the classes won't be readable by Java 7.
 export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_20.jdk/Contents/Home
 ./gradlew clean uploadArchives

Go to repository web interface, log in with Apache LDAP credentials, go to "Staging Repositories", select the org.apache.samza repository just created, and close it. This may take a minute or so. When it finishes, the UI shows a staging repository URL. This can be used in a project that depends on Samza, to test the release candidate.

The instructions above publish the Samza artifacts for scala 2.11. To publish for scala 2.12:

  • Set the desired scalaSuffix in gradle.properties.
  • Run ./gradlew clean uploadArchives to generate and upload the Samza artifacts.

After the VOTE has passed

If the VOTE has successfully passed on the release candidate, you can log in to the repository web interface (same as above) and "release" the org.apache.samza repository listed under "Staging Repositories". This may take a minute or so. This will publish the samza release artifacts to the open source maven repository. Update gradle.properties with the next master version (1.0.0 -> 1.1.0 for example).

Steps to Upload Source Tarball to Apache SVN

Check out the following Apache dist SVN to local:

   svn checkout https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/samza samza-dist

Create the new version's sub-directory and add the source tarball, MD5, and asc files from the previous step to the new directory:

cd samza-dist
mkdir $VERSION
cp ${SAMZA_SRC_ROOT}/build/distribution/source/apache-samza-$VERSION-src.tgz $VERSION
cp ${SAMZA_SRC_ROOT}/build/distribution/source/apache-samza-$VERSION-src.tgz.MD5 $VERSION
cp ${SAMZA_SRC_ROOT}/build/distribution/source/apache-samza-$VERSION-src.tgz.asc $VERSION
svn add $VERSION

Commit to Apache release SVN

   svn ci -m "Releasing Apache Samza $VERSION Source Tarballs"

Check the download link here to make sure that the mirror site has picked up the new release. The third-party mirrors may take upto 24 hours to pick-up the release. In order to ensure that the release is available in public mirrors, wait for the release jars to show up in maven central. A full list of mirrors can be found here. Do not publish the website or any public document until the release jars are available for download.

Steps to Update Public Documentation

Please refer to docs/README.md, specifically "Release-new-version Website Checklist" section.
