Release

How to release podpac

Updating main

$ git pull upstream main  # or just git pull

Create a release branch: release/4.x.y
Update version.py MAJOR, MINOR, and HOTFIX to the right semantic version
Run unit tests

$ # Activate Python environment
$ pytest podpac

Review the CHANGELOG and update
- Prefix should be a numpy commit prefix
- Convention:

- <prefix>: <short description> ([<github issue>](https://github.com/creare-com/podpac/issues/<issue#>))

$ git tag -a X.Y.Z -m 'X.Y.Z'

$ git push upstream main
$ git push upstream --tags

Build source and binary wheels for pypi (you have to have the wheels package installed):

$ git clean -xdf  # this deletes all uncommited changes!
$ python setup.py bdist_wheel sdist

Upload package to TestPypi. You will need to be listed as a package owner at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/podpac for this to work. You now need to use a pypi generated token, can no longer use your password.

$ twine upload --repository-url https://test.pypi.org/legacy/ dist/podpac-X.Y.Z*

Use twine to register and upload the release on pypi. Be careful, you can't take this back! You will need to be listed as a package owner at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/podpac for this to work.

$ twine upload dist/podpac-X.Y.Z*
