This document explains how to maintain an image-builder repo.
The SD card is automatically built with Travis. You don't need real hardware to build and publish the SD card image.
Pull requests are also built and checked with Travis.
See the .travis.yml
file which commands are run for each Git commit.
The tests defined in builder/test/
check the SD card image for each Git
commit and before releasing a new SD card image.
You can create a new release directly on GitHub.
Just click on "releases", then click the "Draft a new release" button. Please check that you draft a release on "master" branch.
Type in eg. "v1.0.0" into the "Tag version" input field.
Type in eg. "v1.0.0" into the "Release title" input field.
Type in a release description. You may use the text of the previous release and adjust it. A release description is important for users of Sibbell to receive a good notification email or Slack message.
You can decide if it's a pre-release with the checkbox at the bottom.
Then press "Publish release".
After that Travis starts a new tagged build with that version tag and also
runs the deploy steps defined in .travis.yml
and pushes the SD card image
to the GitHub release.
