The latest copy of trunk can be fetched by running :command:`bzr export

A Debian package is currently under development in the
32
``lp:~ivle-dev/ivle/debian-packaging`` branch.
34
William Grant currently maintains a :abbr:`PPA (Personal Package Archive)` of
35
IVLE and its dependencies at https://launchpad.net/~wgrant/+archive/ivle.
37
.. TODO: Are we using this for releases?
42
IVLE will be split into a few packages:
44
* ``ivle`` will be the all-in-one package, which users can install to get a
45
working IVLE with all tasks on a single node. It will depend on
46
``ivle-app-server``, ``ivle-usrmgt-server``, *PostgreSQL*, and perform extra
47
automated configuration for the Subversion service.
48
* ``ivle-app-server`` will contain the web code, trampoline, timount and co.,
49
depend upon the packages necessary for an appserver, and perform just the
50
configuration for an appserver (generating config files, scheduling timount
52
* ``ivle-usrmgt-server`` will contain and configure the usrmgt-server.
53
* ``ivle-server-common`` will contain those bits common to the server tasks,
54
but not in the ivle Python package, and not needed in the jail.
55
* ``ivle-jail`` might not be in the archive, instead being built by
56
ivle-create-jail - it will contain the extra jail scripts.
57
* ``python-ivle`` will contain the ivle Python package.

To release IVLE, both generic source tarballs and Ubuntu packages should

Generating a source tarball
26
===========================
28
To generate a tarball of the current state of trunk, run ``bzr export
29
ivle-VERSION.tar.gz lp:ivle``.
32
Releasing it on Launchpad
33
=========================
35
As a member of the `IVLE Developers <https://launchpad.net/~ivle-dev>`_ team,
36
visit the `IVLE project page <https://launchpad.net/ivle>`_. There you'll see
37
a graph of IVLE's series, milestones and releases.
39
Clicking on the series in which this release should be created will present
40
a list of existing milestones and releases. If a milestone for this release
41
already exists, click "Release now". If not, click "Create release". Enter
42
the release date on the following form, and confirm the creation.
44
To upload the release tarball for the world to see, hit "Add download file" on
45
the release page. Give a meaningful description like "IVLE 1.0 source", select
46
the file, and ensure that the type is "Code Release Tarball".

Updating the Ubuntu package
57
===========================
59
An Ubuntu package is kept in the `PPA for production environments
60
<https://launchpad.net/~unimelb-ivle/+archive/production>`_. Releases should
61
be pushed out to there if destined for production systems. The packaging is
62
kept in a separate branch: `lp:~ivle-dev/ivle/debian-packaging
63
<https://code.launchpad.net/~ivle-dev/ivle/debian-packaging>`_.
65
You will need to be a member of the `University of Melbourne IVLE developers
66
<https://launchpad.net/~unimelb-ivle>`_ team, have an OpenPGP key assigned to
67
your account, and have signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct. See the PPA
68
documentation linked below for instructions. You should be able to build
69
the package on any Debian-derived operating system that uses ``dpkg``.
70
You also need to have an SSH key `associated with your account
71
<https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/CreatingAnSSHKeyPair>`_ so you can
72
commit to the branch on Launchpad.
74
When performing a release, you should merge trunk into a checkout of the
75
packaging branch. Then run ``dch -i`` to add a new Debian changelog entry.
76
For the Debian version string, append ``-0ppa1`` to the IVLE version (eg.
77
``1.0-0ppa1``). Make sure that you target to the correct Ubuntu series
78
(currently ``hardy``). Also ensure that your name and email address are set
79
correctly at the bottom of the new entry.
81
Next ensure that you have a copy of the release tarball in the parent
82
directory, named ``ivle_VERSION.orig.tar.gz``. Once that's there, run
83
``debuild -S -sa -i`` to build the source package and have the results placed
84
in the parent directory.
86
``dput ppa:unimelb-ivle/production ivle_VERSION_source.changes`` will now
87
upload the package to the production PPA. You should receive an acknowledgement
88
email from Launchpad within five minutes, at which point Launchpad will begin
89
building binaries from the source package. You can check the build progress
90
on the `PPA detail page
91
<https://launchpad.net/~unimelb-ivle/+archive/production/+packages>`_.
93
Remember to commit to and push the ``debian-packaging`` branch when done.
