Release on PyPI for Plone 5.2 #938

Closed rafaelbco closed 1 year ago

rafaelbco commented 1 year ago

It seems there is not yet a release on PyPI for Plone version 5.2. The last version available is 2.2.3 which is marked as compatible with Plone 5.1.

It seems the current main branch works with Plone 5.2, but it is needed to run a script to compile the static resources first.

Can we have a proper Plone 5.2 compatible release on PyPI?

@wesleybl your thoughts please :-)

Hi @rafaelbco ! I plan to release 3.0.0, compatible with Plone 5.2 soon.

Any news my friend? @wesleybl

wesleybl commented 1 year ago

@rafaelbco generating the release is on my list of activities, but I have other activities that are more priority. But I hope to generate in the next few days.

@rafaelbco made Cover release 3.0.0:

https://pypi.org/project/collective.cover/3.0.0/

We have no upgrade step in this release. It is for a new installation. We found it best to migrate to Python 3 with transmogrifier or collective.exportimport to avoid problems with the ZODB. Anyway, it's still compatible with Python 2, if anyone wants to do the upgrade steps.

Apologies for the delay.

Hello @wesleybl .

I'm in the process of upgrading a site from Plone 4.3 to Plone 5.2, staying on Python 2 for now. I'm doing an inplace migration, i.e without export/import. It seems that existing Cover items work fine after upgrading to Plone 5.2.

Since you've said that there are no upgrade steps for 3.0.0 I am wondering if I may run into some problem. What do you think can be missing in terms of upgrade steps?

@rafaelbco It probably worked because you must have reinstalled the product. Reinstall is not recommended as it can be unpredictable. But if it worked for you, great! I recommend that you test tiles, especially editing existing tiles.
