How to create a Release

We use tags to drive the creation of the releases. This is handled by the Github Actions release workflow in ps-ce-sdk-release.yaml.

A new release will upload the PowerShell module artifacts to the PowerShell gallery.

Step 1 - Bump Module Version

Bump the ModuleVersion in src/CloudEventsPowerShell/CloudEvents.Sdk.psd1 to the next semantic release version (without "v" prefix).

# Version number of this module.
ModuleVersion = '0.3.0'

Create a pull request with this change, review and approve it after all checks have passed.

Step 2 - Update local main branch

Pull in the latest changes, incl. the merged PR above, into your local main branch of this repository before creating a tag via the git CLI.

git checkout main
git fetch -avp
git pull upstream main

Note: the above commands assume upstream pointing to the remote https://github.com/cloudevents/sdk-powershell.git

Step 3 - Create and push a Tag

RELEASE=v0.3.0
git tag -a $RELEASE -m "Release ${RELEASE}"
git push upstream refs/tags/${RELEASE}

This will trigger the release workflow. Verify that it executed successfully and that a new Github release was created.

The release workflow also creates a pull request with the updated CHANGELOG.md. Verify, approve and merge accordingly.

If you need to make changes to the Github release notes, you can edit them on the release page.
