Self Serve Release Jobs¶

Self serve release jobs allow a project to create a releases directory and then place a release file in it. Jenkins will pick this up and then promote the artifact from the staging log directory (log_dir) and tag the release with the defined version. maven_central_url is optional

Note

Example of a maven release file:

$ cat releases/maven-1.0.0.yaml
---
distribution_type: 'maven'
version: '1.0.0'
project: 'example-project'
log_dir: 'example-project-maven-stage-master/17/'


Example of a container release file:

$ cat releases/container-1.0.0.yaml
---
distribution_type: 'container'
version: '1.0.0'
project: 'example-project'
log_dir: 'example-project-maven-docker-stage-master/17/'

Note

Job should be appended under gerrit-maven-stage Example of a terse Jenkins job to call global-jjb macro:

- gerrit-maven-stage:
    sign-artifacts: true
    build-node: centos7-docker-8c-8g
    maven-versions-plugin: true
- '{project-name}-gerrit-release-jobs':
    build-node: centos7-docker-8c-8g

Note

Release Engineers Please follow the setup guide before adding the job definition:

Setup for LFID Nexus Jenkins and Gerrit:¶

LFID¶

Create an lfid and an ssh-key

YOUR_RELEASE_USERNAME for example: onap-release YOUR_RELEASE_EMAIL for example: collab-it+onap-release@linuxfoundation.org

ssh-key example:

ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "collab-it+odl-release@linuxfoundation.org"  -f /tmp/odl-release

Create an LFID with the above values

Nexus¶

Create a Nexus account called 'jenkins-release' with promote privileges.

Gerrit¶

Log into your Gerrit with YOU_RELEASE_USERNAME, upload the publick part of the ssh-key you created earlier. Log out of Gerrit and log in again with your normal account for the next steps.

In Gerrit create a new group called self-serve-release and give it direct push rights via All-Projects Add YOUR_RELEASE_USERNAME to group self-serve-release and group Non-Interactive Users

In All project, grant group self-serve-release the following:

[access "refs/heads/*"]
  push = group self-serve-release
[access "refs/tags/*"]
  createTag = group self-serve-release
  createSignedTag = group self-serve-release
  forgeCommitter = group self-serve-release
  push = group self-serve-release

Jenkins¶

Add a global credential to Jenkins called jenkins-release and set the ID: 'jenkins-release' as its value insert the private portion of the ssh-key that you created for your Gerrit user.

Add Global vars in Jenkins: Jenkins configure -> Global properties -> Environment variables

RELEASE_USERNAME = YOUR_RELEASE_USERNAME RELEASE_EMAIL = YOUR_RELEASE_EMAIL

Jenkins configure -> Managed Files -> Add a New Config -> Custom File

id: signing-pubkey Name: SIGNING_PUBKEY (optional) Comment: SIGNING_PUBKEY (optional)

Content: (Ask Andy for the public signing key) —–BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK—–

Add or edit the managed file in Jenkins called lftoolsini, appending a nexus section: Jenkins Settings -> Managed files -> Add (or edit) -> Custom file

[nexus.example.com]
username=jenkins-release
password=<plaintext password>

Ci-management¶

Upgrade your projects global-jjb if needed add this to your global defaults file (eg: jjb/defaults.yaml).

jenkins-ssh-release-credential: 'jenkins-release'

Macros¶

lf-release¶

Release verify and merge jobs are the same except for their scm, trigger, and builders definition. This anchor is the common template.

Job Templates¶

Release Merge¶

Runs:

sigul-install
sigul-configuration
checkout ref from taglist.log
applies the $PROJECT.bundle
signs, tags and pushes

lftools nexus release --server $NEXUS_URL $STAGING_REPO

Template Name:

{project-name}-release-merge-{stream}

Comment Trigger:

remerge

Required parameters:

jenkins-ssh-release-credential:
build-node:	The node to run build on.
	Credential to use for SSH. (Generally set in defaults.yaml)
stream:	run this job against: **

Optional parameters:

build-days-to-keep:
branch:	Git branch to fetch for the build. (default: all)
	Days to keep build logs in Jenkins. (default: 7)
build-timeout:	Timeout in minutes before aborting build. (default: 15)
project-pattern:
	Project to trigger build against. (default: **)
gerrit_merge_triggers:
	Override Gerrit Triggers.
gerrit_trigger_file_paths:
	Override file paths filter which checks which file modifications will trigger a build. default: - compare-type: ANT pattern: 'releases/*.yaml'

Release Verify¶

Release verify job checks the schema and ensures that the staging-repo.txt.gz is available on the job.

sigul-install
sigul-configuration
checkout ref from taglist.log
applies the $PROJECT.bundle
signs and shows signature
