Releasing

To release a new version:

• Make changes on a branch
• Update CHANGELOG for next release
• Run bump-my-version bump {major|minor|patch}
• Open a PR and have it merged to main after review
• Tag latest commit on main with the version, and push. This will trigger a build of the data-access-tool-api and data-access-tool-server images with the given version tag.
• Deploy the latest change with garrison. See the section on garrison below for more info.

garrison

garrison is a deployment system for NSIDC applications deployed to a VM on NSIDC infrastructure.

The jenkins-cd Jenkins VM provides a mechanism for doing garrison deployments of the data-access-tool-backend to integration and QA.

The Deploy Project with Garrison job defined in the Ops Jenkins is used by Ops to deploy to staging and production.

See the data-access-tool-vm project for additional details and VM configuration for the data-access-tool-backend.
