|
|
|
+## Release OLM Bundle
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+In order to make the latest release available to [OperatorHub.io](https://operatorhub.io/) we need to create a bundle and open a PR in the [community-operators](https://github.com/k8s-operatorhub/community-operators/) repository.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+To create a bundle first increment the `VERSION` in the Makefile as described above. Then run the following commands in the root of the repository:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+```bash
|
|
|
+# clone repo
|
|
|
+git clone https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets-helm-operator
|
|
|
+cd external-secrets-helm-operator
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+# bump version
|
|
|
+export VERSION=x.y.z
|
|
|
+sed -i "s/^VERSION ?= .*/VERSION ?= ${VERSION}/" Makefile
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+# prep release
|
|
|
+make prepare-stable-release
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Check the generated files in the `bundle/` directory. If they look good add & commit them, open a PR against this repository. You can always use the [OperatorHub.io/preview](https://operatorhub.io/preview) page to preview the generated CSV.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+```bash
|
|
|
+git status
|
|
|
+git add .
|
|
|
+git commit -s -m "chore: bump version xyz"
|
|
|
+git push
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Once the PR is merged we need create a pull request against both community-operators repositories. There's a make target that does the heavy lifting for you:
|
|
|
+```bash
|
|
|
+make bundle-operatorhub
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+This command will add/commit/push and open pull requests in the respective repositories.
