Allowing us to do preview releases #110

Open greglandrum opened 1 year ago

Comment:

It would be really cool if we could make beta releases of the RDKit available using the conda-forge machinery. It looks like it's possible to do preview releases by following these directions: https://conda-forge.org/docs/maintainer/knowledge_base.html#pre-release-builds

For this we need an rc branch on this feedstock, but that's not something I can do.

I can get a branch configured on my side, so if one of the maintainers could create an rc branch I can setup the PR.

@mcs07 @jaimergp, do you have time to do this (or do you know a reasons we shouldn't do it?)

jaimergp commented 1 year ago

I can start a failing branch so it doesn't upload anything. Then in the PR you add the necessary changes to revert the forced failure and implement the prereleases. Does that sound ok?

greglandrum commented 1 year ago

Makes sense to me.

jaimergp commented 1 year ago

Totally forgot about this. pre branch now available. Make sure to restore the sha256 checksum!

Thanks, I will try to give this a try in the next couple of weeks, once we have something sensible available for people to try.

Note that the docs I link to above say that the branch should be either rc or dev. Does pre work too?

It doesn't have an effect, afaik. The standardization is way more important for the channel label. I can rename to rc if you prefer it, though!
