jupyter-dash release process:

Update the version number in two places:
- jupyter_dash/version.py
- extensions/jupyterlab/package.json
Update CHANGELOG.md using the new version number and any changes since the last release
Empty old tarballs from dist/ and jupyter_dash/labextension/dist/
Build the extension: python setup.py build_js
Build the PyPI release: python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
Sanity:
- In an env with jupyter installed, pip install dist/jupyter_dash<...>.whl
- Run jupyter lab - it should ask to rebuild. After it finishes, make sure it’s working and using the newly installed package
Upload to PyPI: twine upload dist/*
Build the conda release, in an env with conda: conda build conda.recipe/
Find and run the command it prints near the end of its output: anaconda upload <path>
commit all of this to master - you should see:
- the version change (two places you explicitly changed, plus one autogenerated by build_js)
- CHANGELOG.md
- the new extension tarball in jupyter_dash/labextension/dist/ replacing the old
tag it: git tag -a ‘vX.Y.Z’ -m ‘vX.Y.Z’
git push origin master
git push origin —tags
on GitHub, draft a new release - choose the new tag, give it exactly the same name as the tag. For the description, copy in the changelog entry for the new release.
