Archwayd Release Checklist

This checklist is to be used for tracking the final things to do to wrap up a new release of the Archway protocol binary as well as all the post upgrade maintenance work.

Before Release

• [x] Ensure all the Github workflows are passing on main
• [x] Rename the latest upgrade handlers to the v5.0.0. This includes:
  • [x] Rename the package name in app/upgrades/latest/upgrades.go from upgradelatest to upgrades5_0_0
  • [x] Set the name of the upgrade handler by setting the Name to the new version name v5.0.0
  • [x] Set the NameAsciiArt to match what the version is expected to be. You can generate the art from here and using the font 3x5
  • [x] In app/app_upgrades change the import path from upgradelatest "github.com/archway-network/archway/app/upgrades/latest" to upgrade5_0_0 "github.com/archway-network/archway/app/upgrades/5_0_0"
  • [x] In app/app_upgrades change the new Upgrade Handler reference from upgradelatest.Upgrade to upgrade5_0_0.Upgrade,
• [x] Update the upgradeName value in the interchaintest/setup.go. This is used in the Chain Upgrade test and modifying this ensures that we simulate the upgrade accurately.
• [x] Update the CHANEGLOG. This includes
  • [x] Renaming the ## [Unreleased] header to [v5.0.0](https://github.com/archway-network/archway/releases/tag/v5.0.0)
  • [x] Removed any unused headers
  • [x] Fix any typos or duplicates
• [x] Create a PR with the above changes titled chore: v5 release changes

Release

• [x] Once above PR is merged, create a new release here. Name the release and the tag as v5.0.0 and the contents are copy pasted from CHANGELOG.md
• [x] At the end add a version compare link as so **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/archway-network/archway/compare/v(X-1).00...v5.0.0
• [x] Ensure all release artifacts are successfully built

import (
    storetypes "github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/store/types"
    sdk "github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/types"
    "github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/types/module"
    "github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/x/auth/keeper"
    upgradetypes "github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/x/upgrade/types"

        "github.com/archway-network/archway/app/keepers"
    "github.com/archway-network/archway/app/upgrades"
)

// This upgrade handler is used for all the current changes to the protocol

const Name = "latest"
const NameAsciiArt = ""

var Upgrade = upgrades.Upgrade{
    UpgradeName: Name,
    CreateUpgradeHandler: func(mm *module.Manager, cfg module.Configurator, keepers keepers.ArchwayKeepers) upgradetypes.UpgradeHandler {
        return func(ctx sdk.Context, plan upgradetypes.Plan, fromVM module.VersionMap) (module.VersionMap, error) {
            return mm.RunMigrations(ctx, cfg, fromVM)
        }
    },
    StoreUpgrades: storetypes.StoreUpgrades{},
} 

• [x] Add the latest upgrade handler reference to app/app_upgrades.go as the following package import upgradelatest "github.com/archway-network/archway/app/upgrades/latest" and the upgrade name as upgradelatest.Upgrade, // latest - This upgrade handler is used for all the current changes to the protocol
  • [x] Update the initialVersion value in the interchaintest/setup.go to "v5.0.0" and upgradeName to latest. This is used in the Chain Upgrade test and modifying this ensures that we always have an upgrade handler test for each PR
  • [x] Create a PR for the above with the title chore: Post v5.0.0 release maintenance
