# ci

This directory contains scripts used for code-server's continuous integration infrastructure.

Some of these scripts contain more detailed documentation and options
in header comments.

Any file or directory in this subdirectory should be documented here.

- [./ci/lib.sh](./lib.sh)
  - Contains code duplicated across these scripts.

## Publishing a release

1. Run `yarn release:prep` and type in the new version i.e. 3.8.1
2. GitHub actions will generate the `npm-package`, `release-packages` and `release-images` artifacts.
   1. You do not have to wait for these.
3. Run `yarn release:github-draft` to create a GitHub draft release from the template with
   the updated version.
   1. Summarize the major changes in the release notes and link to the relevant issues.
   2. Change the @ to target the version branch. Example: `v3.9.0 @ Target: v3.9.0`
4. Wait for the artifacts in step 2 to build.
5. Run `yarn release:github-assets` to download the `release-packages` artifact.
   - It will upload them to the draft release.
6. Run some basic sanity tests on one of the released packages.
   - Especially make sure the terminal works fine.
7. Publish the release and merge the PR.
   1. CI will automatically grab the artifacts and then:
      1. Publish the NPM package from `npm-package`.
      2. Publish the Docker Hub image from `release-images`.
8. Update the AUR package.
   - Instructions on updating the AUR package are at [cdr/code-server-aur](https://github.com/cdr/code-server-aur).
9. Wait for the npm package to be published.

## build

This directory contains the scripts used to build and release code-server.
You can disable minification by setting `MINIFY=`.

- [./ci/build/build-code-server.sh](./build/build-code-server.sh) (`yarn build`)
  - Builds code-server into `./out` and bundles the frontend into `./dist`.

  - Builds vscode into `./lib/vscode/out-vscode`.
- [./ci/build/build-release.sh](./build/build-release.sh) (`yarn release`)
  - Bundles the output of the above two scripts into a single node module at `./release`.
- [./ci/build/build-standalone-release.sh](./build/build-standalone-release.sh) (`yarn release:standalone`)
  - Requires a node module already built into `./release` with the above script.
  - Will build a standalone release with node and node_modules bundled into `./release-standalone`.
- [./ci/build/clean.sh](./build/clean.sh) (`yarn clean`)
  - Removes all build artifacts.
  - Useful to do a clean build.
