# Releases
## Version numbers
In the following `${VERSION}` represents the version to be released. If
it is a release candidate, it ends in `-rc1`, `-rc2`, and so on.
Example: `VERSION=1.2.4-rc1`
Since LuaRocks does not support dashes in the version string, except for
the build number, we replace eventual dashes (`-`) in `${VERSION}` with
dots (`.`). With LuaRocks, the version number is followed by a dash and
the build number, which is usually one (`1`), except for release candidates,
where we use zero (`0`). We use `${LUAROCKS_VERSION}` to represent this
version string below.
Example: `LUAROCKS_VERSION=1.2.4.rc1-0`
Since Windows libraries use a four number versioning scheme without the
possibility for non-digit characters, we use the fourth and last number to
distinguish between releases (`0` in the last position) and release
candidates (previous version number in the first three positions, but `99`,
`999` and so on in the last position). This number is represented by
`${WINDOWS_VERSION}` in the following.
Example: `WINDOWS_VERSION=1.2.3.99`
Note that for Git tags we prefix `${VERSION}` with `v`. This is explicit
in the instructions below.
## Release checklist
- [ ] Copy `rockspecs/lualdap-dev-2.rockspec` to `rockspecs/lualdap-${LUAROCKS_VERSION}.rockspec`
- [ ] In `Makefile` and `Makefile.win` adjust `V` to `${VERSION}`
- [ ] In `src/lualdap.c` adjust `_VERSION` to `LuaLDAP ${VERSION}`
- [ ] In `src/lualdap.def` adjust `VERSION` to `${WINDOWS_VERSION}`
- [ ] In `README.md` adjust `badge/version-${VERSION}-blue`
- [ ] In `docs/news.md`:
- [ ] Rename "Unreleased" to `${VERSION}`
- [ ] Adjust the link for `Unreleased` to show the changelog (commit log)
between the previous version and `v${VERSION}` and rename it to
`${VERSION}`
- [ ] Add a new, empty "Unreleased" section
- [ ] Add a new link for `Unreleased` to show the changelog between
`v${VERSION}` and `HEAD`
- [ ] Commit these changes with message "Release v${VERSION}"
- [ ] Tag this commit with `v${VERSION}`
- [ ] Run `make rock` in order to create `lualdap-${LUAROCKS_VERSION}.src.rock`
- [ ] Upload on <luarocks.org> the new `rockspec` and `src.rock`
- [ ] Run `make gh-pages` in order to update the site <https://lualdap.github.io/lualdap>
