Contributing

Contribution Rules

  1. No SNAPSHOT dependencies on "develop" and obviously "master" branches

Releasing

  1. From the develop branch, prepare a release (example using a HTTP proxy):

    $ mvn -Dhttps.proxyHost=proxyhostname -Dhttps.proxyPort=8080 jgitflow:release-start
  1. Update the CHANGELOG according to keepachangelog.com.
  2. To perform the release (example using a HTTP proxy):

    $ mvn -Dhttps.proxyHost=proxyhostname -Dhttps.proxyPort=8080 jgitflow:release-finish

If, after deployment, the command does not succeed because of some issue with the branches. Fix the issue, then re-run the same command but with 'noDeploy' option set to true to avoid re-deployment:


    $ mvn -Dhttps.proxyHost=proxyhostname -Dhttps.proxyPort=8080 -DnoDeploy=true jgitflow:release-finish
  1. Connect and log in to the Maven Central Repository Manager: https://central.sonatype.com
  2. Go to Publish > Deployments, select the latest Deployment for authzforce-*... you just uploaded with jgitflow:release-finish
  3. Click the Publish button to release to Maven Central.
  4. Build and publish the Docker image to Docker Hub (version is the last release version): 
    $ git checkout release-${version} 
$ cd  cxf-spring-boot-server
$ docker build -t authzforce/restful-pdp:latest -t authzforce/restful-pdp:${version} .
$ docker login
$ docker push authzforce/restful-pdp:${version}
