GnuPG needs to construct a user ID to identify your key.
Real name: ${Input username}
Email address: ${Input email}
Comment: ${Input comment}
You selected this USER-ID:
"${Inputed username} (${Inputed comment}) <${Inputed email}>"
Change (N)ame, (C)omment, (E)mail or (O)kay/(Q)uit? O
You need a Passphrase to protect your secret key. # Input passwords
gpg --list-keys
Execution Result:
pub 4096R/700E6065 2019-03-20
uid ${Username} (${Comment}) <{Email}>
sub 4096R/0B7EF5B2 2019-03-20
Among them, 700E6065 is public key ID.
Or run gpg --list-sigs to query it.
The command is as follows:
gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --send-key 700E6065
keyserver.ubuntu.com is randomly chosen from public key server.
Each server will automatically synchronize with one another, so it would be okay to choose any one.
Open GitHub milestone
${RELEASE.VERSION} is 100%;close to close milestone.Suppose ShardingSphere source codes downloaded from GitHub is under ~/open_source/shardingsphere/, clone a new one into ~/shardingsphere/ directory from local.
Suppose the version to be released is ${RELEASE.VERSION}, create ${RELEASE.VERSION}-release branch, where all the following operations will be performed.
Reference command:

./mvnw release:prepare -Prelease -Darguments="-DskipTests" -DautoVersionSubmodules=true -DdryRun=true -Dusername=${Github username}
-Prelease: choose release profile, which will pack all the source codes, jar files and executable binary packages of ShardingSphere-Proxy.
-DautoVersionSubmodules=true: it can make the version number is inputted only once and not for each sub-module.
-DdryRun=true: rehearsal, which means not to generate or submit new version number and new tag.
First, clean local pre-release check information.
./mvnw release:clean
Then, prepare to execute the release.
./mvnw release:prepare -Prelease -Darguments="-DskipTests" -DautoVersionSubmodules=true -DpushChanges=false -Dusername=${Github username}
It is basically the same as the previous rehearsal command, but deleting -DdryRun=true parameter.
-DpushChanges=false: do not submit the edited version number and tag to Github automatically.
Refer to Check Release, after making sure there is no mistake in local files, submit them to GitHub.
git push origin ${RELEASE.VERSION}-release
git push origin ${RELEASE.VERSION}
./mvnw release:perform -Prelease -Darguments="-DskipTests" -DautoVersionSubmodules=true -DlocalCheckout=true -Dusername=${Github username}
-DlocalCheckout=true: checkout code from local repository instead of remote repository.
After that command is executed, the version to be released will be uploaded to Apache staging repository automatically.
Visit staging repository and use Apache LDAP account to log in; then you can see the uploaded version, the content of Repository column is the ${STAGING.REPOSITORY}.
Click Close to tell Nexus that the construction is finished, because only in this way, this version can be usable.
If there is any problem in gpg signature, Close will fail, but you can see the failure information through Activity.
If there is no local work directory, create one at first.
mkdir -p ~/ss_svn/dev/
cd ~/ss_svn/dev/
After the creation, checkout ShardingSphere release directory from Apache SVN.
svn --username=${APACHE LDAP username} co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/shardingsphere
cd ~/ss_svn/dev/shardingsphere
Only the account in its first deployment needs to add that.
It is alright for KEYS to only include the public key of the deployed account.
gpg -a --export ${GPG username} >> KEYS
svn --username=${APACHE LDAP username} commit -m 'Add gpg key for ${APACHE LDAP username}'
You could run gpg --show-keys KEYS to check whether your public key is added or not.
Create folder by version number.
mkdir ${RELEASE.VERSION}
Add source code packages, binary packages and executable binary packages of ShardingSphere-Proxy to SVN working directory.
cd ${RELEASE.VERSION}
cp -f ~/shardingsphere/distribution/src/target/*.zip* .
cp -f ~/shardingsphere/distribution/jdbc/target/*.tar.gz* .
cp -f ~/shardingsphere/distribution/proxy/target/*.tar.gz* .
cp -f ~/shardingsphere/distribution/agent/target/*.tar.gz* .
svn add * --parents
svn --username=${APACHE LDAP username} commit -m "release ${RELEASE.VERSION}"
shasum -c *.sha512
First, import releaser’s public key. Import KEYS from SVN repository to local. (The releaser does not need to import again; the checking assistant needs to import it, with the user name filled as the releaser’s. )
curl https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/shardingsphere/KEYS >> KEYS
gpg --import KEYS
gpg --edit-key "${GPG username of releaser}"
> trust
Please decide how far you trust this user to correctly verify other users' keys
(by looking at passports, checking fingerprints from different sources, etc.)
1 = I don't know or won't say
2 = I do NOT trust
3 = I trust marginally
4 = I trust fully
5 = I trust ultimately
m = back to the main menu
Your decision? 5
> save
Then, check the gpg signature.
Checking can be performed by the following command under Bash:
for each in $(ls *.asc); do gpg --verify $each ${each%.asc}; done
Or checking each file manually:
gpg --verify apache-shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}-src.zip.asc apache-shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}-src.zip
gpg --verify apache-shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}-shardingsphere-jdbc-bin.tar.gz.asc apache-shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}-shardingsphere-jdbc-bin.tar.gz
gpg --verify apache-shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}-shardingsphere-proxy-bin.tar.gz.asc apache-shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}-shardingsphere-proxy-bin.tar.gz
gpg --verify apache-shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}-shardingsphere-agent-bin.tar.gz.asc apache-shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}-shardingsphere-agent-bin.tar.gz
3.1 Compare release source with github tag
curl -Lo tag-${RELEASE.VERSION}.zip https://github.com/apache/shardingsphere/archive/${RELEASE.VERSION}.zip
unzip tag-${RELEASE.VERSION}.zip
unzip apache-shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}-src.zip
diff -r apache-shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}-src-release shardingsphere-${RELEASE.VERSION}

Announcement e-mail template:
Title:
[ANNOUNCE] Apache ShardingSphere ${RELEASE.VERSION} available
Body:
Hi all,
Apache ShardingSphere Team is glad to announce the new release of Apache ShardingSphere ${RELEASE.VERSION}.
Apache ShardingSphere is an open source ecosystem that allows you to transform any database into a distributed database system.
The project includes a JDBC and a Proxy, and its core adopts a micro-kernel and pluggable architecture.
Thanks to its plugin-oriented architecture, features can be flexibly expanded at will.
The project is committed to providing a multi-source heterogeneous, enhanced database platform and further building an ecosystem around the upper layer of the platform.
Database Plus, the design philosophy of Apache ShardingSphere, aims at building the standard and ecosystem on the upper layer of the heterogeneous database.
It focuses on how to make full and reasonable use of the computing and storage capabilities of existing databases rather than creating a brand new database.
It attaches greater importance to the collaboration between multiple databases instead of the database itself.
