OnionShare Release Process

Unless you're a core OnionShare developer making a release, you'll probably never need to follow it.

Preparing the release

Update the version in these places

  • cli/pyproject.toml
  • cli/onionshare_cli/resources/version.txt
  • desktop/pyproject.toml
  • desktop/setup.py
  • desktop/org.onionshare.OnionShare.appdata.xml
  • docs/source/conf.py (version at the top, and the versions list too)
  • snap/snapcraft.yaml

You also must edit these files

  • desktop/org.onionshare.OnionShare.appdata.xml should have the correct release date, and links to correct screenshots
  • CHANGELOG.md should be updated to include a list of all major changes since the last release

Update dependencies

Check cli/pyproject.toml to see if any hard-coded versions should be updated. Then, update the dependencies like this:

cd cli
poetry update
cd ..

If you update flask-socketio, ensure that you also update the socket.io.min.js file to a version that is supported by the updated version of flask-socketio.

Check desktop/pyproject.toml to see if any hard-coded versions should be updated. Then, update the dependencies like this:

cd desktop
poetry update
cd ..

Update the docs dependencies like this:

cd docs
poetry update
cd ..

Update the versions of meek, obfs4proxy, and snowflake in the desktop/scripts/build-pt-* scripts, both the bash and PowerShell scripts. You can find the latest versions by looking at the tags in their git repos: meek, obfs4proxy, snowflake.

Update the documentation

  • Update all of the documentation in docs to cover new features, including taking new screenshots if necessary

Finalize localization

  • Merge all the translations from weblate: git remote add weblate https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/onionshare/translations/ git pull weblate main
  • In docs run poetry run ./check-weblate.py [API_KEY] to see which translations are >90% in the app and docs
  • Edit cli/onionshare_cli/settings.py, make sure self.available_locales lists only locales that are >90% translated
  • From the desktop folder in the virtual env, run ./scripts/countries-update-list.py to make sure the localized country list for censorship circumvention is available in all available languages
  • Edit docs/source/conf.py, make sure languages lists only languages that are >90% translated
  • Edit docs/build.sh and make sure LOCALES= lists the same languages as above, in docs/source/conf.py
  • Make sure the latest documentation is built and committed: 
    cd docs
poetry install
poetry run ./build.sh

Make sure Snapcraft packaging works

In snap/snapcraft.yaml:

  • The tor, libevent, obfs4, snowflake-client, and meek-client parts should be updated if necessary
  • In the onionshare part, in the override-pull section, all of the dependencies in the requirements.txt file should match the dependencies listed in cli/pyproject.toml and desktop/pyproject.toml, with the exception of PySide2

To test locally:

  • Install snapcraft with: sudo snap install snapcraft --classic
  • Build snap with: snapcraft
  • Install with: sudo snap install ./onionshare_${VERSION}_amd64.snap --devmode

To test in the edge branch:

With every commit to the main branch, Snapcraft's CI should trigger builds. Make sure the builds all succeeded at https://snapcraft.io/onionshare/builds (you must be logged in), and test them. You can install them with: snap install onionshare --edge

Make sure the Flatpak packaging works

In flatpak/org.onionshare.OnionShare.yaml:

  • Update tor and libevent
  • Update obfs4proxy, meek-client, and snowflake-client dependencies, if necessary using this tool: 
    cd flatpak-builder-tools/go

# For each these, incorporate the output into the Flatpak manifest
# Make sure to update the version numbers
./flatpak-go-deps.py git.torproject.org/pluggable-transports/meek.git/meek-client@v0.38.0
./flatpak-go-deps.py git.torproject.org/pluggable-transports/snowflake.git/client@v2.6.0
./flatpak-go-deps.py gitlab.com/yawning/obfs4.git/obfs4proxy@obfs4proxy-0.0.14
    Merge the output of each of these commands into the Flatpak manifest.
  • Update the Python dependencies using this tool along with flatpak/poetry-to-requirements.py: 
    cd flatpak-build-tools/pip

# get onionshare-cli dependencies
./flatpak-pip-generator $(../../onionshare/flatpak/poetry-to-requirements.py ../../onionshare/cli/pyproject.toml)
../flatpak-json2yaml.py ./python3-modules.json
mv python3-modules.yml onionshare-cli.yaml

# get onionshare dependencies
./flatpak-pip-generator $(../../onionshare/flatpak/poetry-to-requirements.py ../../onionshare/desktop/pyproject.toml | grep -v PySide6)
../flatpak-json2yaml.py ./python3-modules.json
mv python3-modules.yml onionshare-desktop.yaml
    Now, merge onionshare-desktop.yaml and onionshare-cli.yaml into the Flatpak manifest.
  • Build and test the Flatpak package to ensure it works: 
    flatpak-builder build --force-clean --jobs=$(nproc) --install-deps-from=flathub --install --user flatpak/org.onionshare.OnionShare.yaml
flatpak run org.onionshare.OnionShare

Create a signed git tag

  • There must be a PGP-signed git tag for the version, e.g. for OnionShare 2.1, the tag must be v2.1

The first step for the Linux, macOS, and Windows releases is the same.

Verify the release git tag:

git fetch
git tag -v v$VERSION

If the tag verifies successfully, check it out:

git checkout v$VERSION

Making the release

Linux Snapcraft release

From https://snapcraft.io/onionshare/releases (you must be logged in), promote the release from latest/edge to latest/beta, then latest/candidate, then latest/stable.

Linux Flatpak release

Windows release

Create a Windows 11 VM, and set it up like this:

Clone the OnionShare git repo and checkout the release tag.

If you've used this git repo for a previous release, clean it up:

  • In the onionshare/desktop folder, delete build and dist from the previous build.
  • Delete the poetry environment. You can find its name by run poetry env list, and then you can delete it with poetry env remove [ENV_NAME].

Install Poetry and deps. Open a Developer PowerShell for VS window, change to the onionshare folder, and run:

cd desktop
pip install poetry
poetry install

Github Actions will build the binaries. Find the Github Actions build workflow, switch to the summary tab, download win64-build.zip, and copy it to the Windows packaging environment.

Extract win64-build.zip. Run:

poetry run python .\scripts\build-windows.py codesign [path]
poetry run python .\scripts\build-windows.py package [path]

This will create:

  • desktop/dist/OnionShare-win64-$VERSION.msi

macOS release

In order to make a universal2 binary, you must following these instructions using a Mac with Apple Silicon. To keep a clean environment, you can use VM.

Set up the VM like this:

Clone the OnionShare git repo and checkout the release tag.

If you've used this git repo for a previous release, clean it up:

cd desktop
rm -rf build dist
# Delete the old poetry environment
poetry env remove $(poetry env list | grep "(Activated)" | cut -d" " -f1)

Install and build dependencies:

cd desktop
python3 -m pip install poetry
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/bin/poetry install
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/bin/poetry run python ./scripts/get-tor.py macos
./scripts/build-pt-obfs4proxy.sh
./scripts/build-pt-snowflake.sh
./scripts/build-pt-meek.sh

Make the Apple Silicon app bundle:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/bin/poetry run python ./setup-freeze.py bdist_mac
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/bin/poetry run python ./scripts/build-macos.py cleanup-build

The Apple Silicon app bundle will be in build folder called OnionShare.app.

Github Actions will build the Intel app bundle. Find the Github Actions build workflow, switch to the summary tab, and download the mac-intel-build artifact. Extract it, and you'll get the Intel OnionShare.app folder.

Next, merge these two app bundles into a single universal2 app bundle:

poetry run ./scripts/macos-merge-universal.py [intel_app_path] [silicon_app_path] [universal2_app_path]

Finally, code sign and package the universal2 app bundle:

poetry run python ./scripts/build-macos.py codesign [universal2_app_path]
poetry run python ./scripts/build-macos.py package [universal2_app_path]

The will create dist/OnionShare-$VERSION.dmg.

Now, notarize the release.

export APPLE_PASSWORD="changeme" # app-specific Apple ID password
export VERSION=$(cat ../cli/onionshare_cli/resources/version.txt)

# Notarize it
xcrun notarytool submit --apple-id "micah@micahflee.com" --team-id N9B95FDWH4 --password "$APPLE_PASSWORD" --progress --wait dist/OnionShare-$VERSION.dmg
# After it's approved, staple the ticket
xcrun stapler staple dist/OnionShare-$VERSION.dmg

This will create desktop/dist/OnionShare-$VERSION.dmg, signed and notarized.

Source package

To make a source package, run ./build-source.sh $TAG, where $TAG is the name of the signed git tag, e.g. v2.1.

This will create dist/onionshare-$VERSION.tar.gz.

Publishing the release

PGP signatures

After following all of the previous steps, gather these files:

  • onionshare_${VERSION}_amd64.snap
  • OnionShare.flatpak (rename to OnionShare-$VERSION.flatpak)
  • OnionShare-win64-$VERSION.msi
  • OnionShare-$VERSION.dmg
  • onionshare-$VERSION.tar.gz

Create a PGP signature for each of these files, e.g:

gpg -a --detach-sign OnionShare-$VERSION.tar.gz
gpg -a --detach-sign [... and so on]

Create a release on GitHub:

  • Match it to the version tag, put the changelog in description of the release
  • Upload all 8 files (binary and source packages and their .asc signatures)

Update onionshare-cli on PyPi

cd cli
poetry install
poetry publish --build

Update Homebrew

Update onionshare.org

Update docs.onionshare.org

Update the community

  • Upload all 10 files to the OnionShare team Keybase filesystem
