Veilid Release Process

Introduction

Veilid is a monorepo consisting of several projects:
(checked boxes are released as packages)

Release Mechanism

Releases happen via a CI/CD pipeline. Builds and tests are automatic and must succeed before a release is triggered. Releases happen if a successful build pipeline off of the main branch runs, followed by test pipeline, followed by package pipeline.

A new tag is calculated for each released artifact in the format 'name-v0.1.0', where the name is the pipeline name (veilid-server-deb-v0.0.0) for example. If the version number on the resulting output package artifact has changed from the most recent tag for that artifact, it is published. If publication is successful, the repository is tagged with the new tag. Multiple releases and tags can happen per pipeline run, if multiple version numbers are bumped in the same commit.

Tags serve as a historical record of what repo versions were successfully released at which version numbers.

Reverting Releases

Occasionally a release will happen that needs to be reverted. This is done manually on crates.io or the APT repository, or wherever the artifacts end up. Tags are not removed.
