Deployment of new releases
Process to deploy a new release:
-
1.Create the json files using one of the following options:
- 1.1. yaml templates - this option needs to use yaml2json converter to generate json file
- 1.2. json templates - use the json SW/templates/distribution.template.json or product.template.json
-
- Prepare distribution and product
-
a) If it's a product from a new distribution we need to add the distribution first:
-
add-new-distribution using the templates in SW/templates/distribution.template.json
- Install/Copy the template into json_dir/distributions/distribution-name-version.json
-
add new product to the distribution file json_dir/distributions/distribution-name-version.json products array
(example of a json product item to add to the products array){ "name" : "emi.apel", "display" : "APEL publisher", "version" : "3.2.7", "apicallback" : "/static/SW/APEL publisher3.2.7.json", "target" : [ { "platform" : "sl5", "arch" : "x86_64", "repositoryURL" : "sw/production/umd/1/sl5/x86_64/base" } ] }
-
add-new-distribution using the templates in SW/templates/distribution.template.json
-
b) If it's a product from an existing distribution we need to:
-
add "productname.json" full data to the distribution file
- json_dir/distributions/distribution-name-version.json
-
add product to the catalog
- json_dir/software-catalog.json
-
Finally add product.json to the respective directory and create the release.json manually
- json_dir/products/distribution-name/distribution-version/
- and add the same product file to the root of the json_dir/ with the name release.json
-
add "productname.json" full data to the distribution file
