Release Checklist

This page describes the process of releasing new versions of Planemo.

  • Review git status for missing files.

  • Verify the latest github workflows pass.

  • Make sure that the .venv exists and contains the latest dev-requirements make setup-venv

  • Ensure the target release is set correctly in planemo/__init__.py ( version will be a devN variant of target release).

  • make add-history adds contributions to .dev0 version in HISTORY.rst

  • make open-docs and review changelog.

  • make clean && make lint

  • Review and commit outstanding changes.

  • Update version and history, commit, add tag, mint a new version and push everything upstream with make release

  • The new tag should automatically push the new release to PyPI via the deploy job of the GitHub Actions workflow defined in .github/workflows/ci.yaml . If this didn’t work, you can git checkout the tag and push to PyPI by executing make release-artifacts
