How to release

A short primer in the steps needed to release a new version of the weldx package

create release PR

• [x] create a PR that finalizes the code for the next version
  • [x] name the PR according to the version vX.Y.Z and add the release tag (example here)
  • [x] make sure CHANGELOG.md is up-to-date and enter current date to the release version
  • [x] add summarized release highlights where appropriate
  • [x] update the CITATION.cff version number and date
  • [x] search the project for deprecated and remove deprecated code
• [x] wait for review and the CI jobs to finish
• [x] check the readthedocs PR build

Merge the Pull Request

• [x] merge normally and wait for all CI actions to finish on the main branch

add Git(hub) tag

• [x] tag and release the current master version on GitHub using the Releases feature
  • [x] name the release git tag according to the version released (e.g. v0.3.3)
  • [x] name the GitHub release accordingly, omitting the v prefix (this can be change later so don't worry, in doubt use vX.Y.Z everywhere)
  • [x] copy the changes/release notes of the current version into the description and change the GitHub PR links to GitHub markdown
• [ ] wait for all Github Actions to finish

ReadTheDocs updates

• [ ] check the build processes for latest, stable and vX.Y.Z get triggered on RTD (the tag build can get triggered twice, resulting in a failed/duplicated build, no need to worry)

pypi release

• [ ] check the automatic release to pypi after the build action completes here

conda-forge release

• pypi release should get picked up by the conda-forge bot and create the new pull-request here
• [ ] carefully check the meta.yaml in the pull request, manually update all changes in the build and run dependencies
• [ ] merge with 2 or more approved reviews
