Vote a Sedona release

This page is for Sedona community to vote a Sedona release. The script below is tested on MacOS.

In order to vote a Sedona release, you must provide your checklist inlcuding the following minimum requirement:

  • Download links are valid
  • Checksums and PGP signatures are valid
  • DISCLAIMER and NOTICE are included
  • Source code artifacts have correct names matching the current release
  • The project can compile from the source code

To make your life easier, we have provided an online Jupyter notebook using MyBinder. Please click this button to open the notebook and verify the release: Binder. Then you can vote +1 in the vote email.

If you prefer to run the steps on your local machine, please read the steps below. If you can successfully finish the steps, you will pass the items mentioned above. Then you can vote +1 in the vote email and provide your checklist.

Install necessary software

  1. GPG: On Mac brew install gnupg gnupg2. You can check in a terminal gpg --version.
  2. JDK 1.8 or 1.11. Your Mac might have many different Java versions installed. You can try to use it but not sure if it can pass. You can check in a terminal java --version.
  3. Apache Maven 3.3.1+. On Mac brew install maven. You can check it in a terminal mvn -version.
  4. Python3 installed on your machine. MacOS comes with Python3 by default. You can check in a terminal python3 --version.

You can skip this step if you installed these software before.

Run the verify script

Please replace SEDONA_CURRENT_RC and SEDONA_CURRENT_VERSION with the correct versions. Then paste the content in a script called verify.sh and re-direct the output to a file. To run a script, do the following:

#!/bin/bash

## Change the permission of the script to executable
chmod 777 verify.sh

## Run and redirect the output to a file
./verify.sh &> verify.out

The content of the verify.sh script is as follows. If you copy the following content, a line break is automatically added to a long line of code. Please remove it in your local script.

#!/bin/bash

SEDONA_CURRENT_RC=1.3.2-incubating-rc1
SEDONA_CURRENT_VERSION=1.3.2-incubating

## Verify the signature and checksum
gpg --import KEYS
gpg --verify apache-sedona-$SEDONA_CURRENT_VERSION-src.tar.gz.asc
gpg --verify apache-sedona-$SEDONA_CURRENT_VERSION-bin.tar.gz.asc
shasum -a 512 apache-sedona-$SEDONA_CURRENT_VERSION-src.tar.gz
cat apache-sedona-$SEDONA_CURRENT_VERSION-src.tar.gz.sha512
shasum -a 512 apache-sedona-$SEDONA_CURRENT_VERSION-bin.tar.gz
cat apache-sedona-$SEDONA_CURRENT_VERSION-bin.tar.gz.sha512

## Uncompress the source code folder
tar -xvf apache-sedona-$SEDONA_CURRENT_VERSION-src.tar.gz

## Compile the project from source
(cd apache-sedona-$SEDONA_CURRENT_VERSION-src;mvn clean install -DskipTests)
  • If successful, in the output file, you should be able to see something similar to the following text. It should include Good signature from and the final 4 lines should be two pairs of checksum matching each other.

  • At the end of the output, you should also see the BUILD SUCCESS if you can compile the source code. If this step fails, you can contact Sedona PPMC and see if this is just because of your environment.

Check files manually

  1. Check if the downloaded files have the correct version.

  2. In the unzipped source code folder, and check if DISCLAIMER and NOTICE files and included and up to date.
