Release Process

How to publish official release?

OSGeo maintains geoserver-docker.osgeo.org repository for publishing. The results are combined into docker.osgeo.org repository alongside other software such as PostGIS.

Build locally:

docker build -t geoserver-docker.osgeo.org/geoserver:2.22.0 .

Login using with osgeo user id:

docker login geoserver-docker.osgeo.org

Push to osgeo repository:

docker push geoserver-docker.osgeo.org/geoserver:2.22.0

How to automate release?

For CI purposes, the script in the build folder is used to simplify those steps.

The variables DOCKERUSER and DOCKERPASSWORD have to be set with valid credentials before this script can push the image to the osgeo repo.

You need to pass the version as first and the type as second argument, where type has to be one of build, publish or buildandpublish.

Examples:

./release.sh 2.22.1 build

./release.sh 2.22.0 publish

./release.sh 2.22.1 buildandpublish
