Refactor monero-harness containers
1. Split up image::Monero into Monerod and MoneroWalletRpc
2. Don't use `bash` to run the internal command. Instead we disable
the entrypoint script as per https://github.com/XMRto/monero#raw-commands
3. Remove the start up delay by listening for the correct log message.
To make this more resilient, we make the log level NOT configurable and
instead always log verbosely.

Workflow documentation

ci.yml

Defines the Continuous Integration workflow for merging into the master branch.

Releases

The workflows in this repository automate various things around releases. The functionality is composed in such a way that a human can easily start the workflow at various points, i.e. instead of being an all-or-nothing automation, we can step in where necessary.

Preview release

We have a rolling tag preview that always points to HEAD of master. The preview-release.yml workflow moves this tag to latest HEAD every time a PR gets merged. It also creates a corresponding GitHub "pre-release".

Building release binaries and attaching changelog

Whenever a new release is created, the build-release-binaries.yml workflow will build the swap and asb binaries in release mode and attach them to the release as artifacts.

Because this workflow is triggered on every release, it works for:

  • automatically created preview releases
  • releases created through the GitHub web interface
  • releases created by merging release branches into master

Making a new release

To create a new release, one has to:

  • Create a new branch
  • Update the version in the swap/Cargo.toml manifest file
  • Update the Changelog (convert Unreleased section to a release)
  • Make a commit
  • Open and merge a PR
  • Create a release from the resulting merge commit

To avoid errors in this process, we can automate it. The draft-new-release.yml workflow allows the user specify the desired version and the workflow will then open a PR that automates the above.

The created branch will follow the naming of release/X.Y.Z for the given version.

Any time a PR with such a branch name is merged, the create-release.yml workflow kicks in and creates a new release based on the resulting merge commit.

Because these two workflows are de-coupled, a user is free to create a release branch themselves if they wish to do so. They may also side-step both of these workflows by creating a release manually using the Github web interface.
