Packaging and deployment#

Packaging#

This plugin is using the qgis-plugin-ci tool to perform packaging operations.
The package command is performing a git archive run based on changelog.

# package a specific version (which must be already documented in the changelog)
qgis-plugin-ci package 1.3.1
# package latest version
qgis-plugin-ci package latest

Release a version#

Everything is done through the continuous deployment:

  1. Add the new version to the CHANGELOG.md

  2. Change the version number in metadata.txt

  3. Apply a git tag with the relevant version: git tag -a 0.3.0 {git commit hash} -m "This version rocks!"

  4. Push tag to main branch: git push origin 0.3.0
