The current release instructions are focused on the rascal-language-servers project and the VScode extension that is included there
If you edit this template, then please push relevant improvements to the template itself for future reference.
Pre-releasing dependent tools in unstable
First a "pre-release" of the supporting compiler/typechecker tools must be done, so we know we are releasing a consistently compiled standard library.
[x] typepal and rascal-core compile in the continuous integration environment and no tests fail
[x] release typepal
[x] release rascal-core
[x] bump typepal and rascal-core versions in rascal-maven-plugin to latest releases
[x] release rascal-maven-plugin
[x] bump rascal-maven-plugin dependency in rascal and rascal-lsp projects
[x] bump typepal and rascal-core versions in rascal-lsp project
[x] fix new errors and warnings in rascal and rascal-lsp project
Manual version checks
[x] Continuous Integration runs all unit and integration tests and fails no test
[ ] Maximum number of compiler warnings are resolved
[x] Version numbers are verified manually
Manual feature tests
[x] Build VScode extension locally download and install latest .vsix file in VScode for testing purposes
[x] Make sure to restart VS Code after installation, and clear the target folders of the projects used for the below tests.
The list below was copied from the rascal-eclipse release; have to adapt while we go:
[x] Open a Rascal REPL using the CMD+P start-rascal-terminal command (without a project)
[x] Manually create a new Rascal project, with src folder, META-INF/RASCAL.MF file with Required-Libraries: |lib://rascal-lsp|
[x] Can edit a new Rascal file in the Rascal project
[x] Save on Rascal file triggers type-checker, errors visible
[x] Rascal outline works
[x] Clicking links in REPL opens editors and websites
[x] rascal>1 + 1 on the REPL
[x] import IO; println("Hello Rascal!");
[x] in editor, click on use of name jumps to definition
[x] jump-to-definition also work to libraries and inside of libraries #150
[x] clicking in outline jumps to editor to right position
[x] syntax highlighting in editor works
[x] add dependency on another project by editing RASCAL.MF: Require-Libraries: |lib://otherProject|, import a module and test the type-checker as well as the interpreter for correct resolution, also test a new REPL and import a library modules from the imported library.
[x] Run import demo::lang::pico::LanguageServer; and demo::lang::pico::LanguageServer::main(); and test the editor of some example pico files:
[x] pico syntax highlighting
[x] pico parse errors
[x] pico jump-to-definition
[x] pico code lenses with command (Rename variables a to b)
[x] write release notes in README.md (used on the marketplace pages)
[x] release rascal project (when resolving SNAPSHOT dependencies choose the right versions of vallang etc, and make sure to bump the new rascal SNAPSHOT release one minor version)
[x] release rascal-language-servers project (take care to choose the right release versions of typepal and rascal-core you release earlier and choose their new SNAPSHOT dependencies to the latest)
[x] Set the proper version inside rascal-lsp/pom.xml (in most cases, remove `-SNAPSHOT)
[x] Set proper version information in rascal-vscode-extension/package.json (in most cases by removing -head from the current version)
[x] git commit -am "[release] set release version"
[x] git tag vNewVersion
[x] git tag rascal-lsp-NewVersion (fill the rascal-lsp version that is released here, so for example rascal-lsp-2.12.0)
[x] Set next version in package.json with head suffix; e.g. 0.2.0-head
[x] Set next version in pom.xml with snapshot suffix; e.g. 2.2.0-SNAPSHOT
[x] git commit -am "[release] prepare for next release
[x] git push
[x] git push --tags
[x] test the released vsix file from the VScode marketplace
[x] Make Github release, copying the release notes from the vscode extension readme
