Git pull requests and Maven deployment

As the group becomes more familiar with Git and since we have a list of project owners, we ask that instead of pushing directly to the master branch of the project you are working on, you do the following:

• create a new branch
• push your changes there
• create a merge request
• assign it to the project’s (co-)owner

The project’s (co-)owner that was assigned the merge request has to:

• review the code
• download the changes and run the project’s unit tests

If everything looks ok, do the following:

• accept the merge request
• deploy the project on Maven:
  • mvn deploy site-deploy
  • ssh bilbo
  • cd /mounts/bilbo/disks/0/www/cogcomp/html/m2repo/edu/illinois/cs/cogcomp
  • chmod -R 775 PROJECT-ID/PROJECT-VERSION
  • chgrp -R cs_danr PROJECT-ID/PROJECT-VERSION

Using the deployment script deploy-artifacts.sh:

Make sure you have the following two:

• ssh public key on the bilbo: for the script to set the permissions.
• settings.xml file for maven, in your .m2 folder, containing your username and password to our maven repository (bilbo). Here is a sample for this file:

<settings>
  <servers>
    <server>
      <id>CogcompSoftware</id>
      <username>my_netid</username>
      <password>my_pass_word</password>
      <privateKey>~/khashab2/.ssh/my_private_key</privateKey>
      <passphrase></passphrase>
      <filePermissions>664</filePermissions>
      <directoryPermissions>775</directoryPermissions>
      <configuration></configuration>
    </server>
    <server>
      <id>CogcompSoftwareDoc</id>
      <username>my_netid</username>
      <password>my_pass_word</password>
      <privateKey>~/khashab2/.ssh/my_private_key</privateKey>
      <passphrase></passphrase>
      <filePermissions>664</filePermissions>
      <directoryPermissions>775</directoryPermissions>
      <configuration></configuration>
    </server>
  </servers>
