RELEASING.md

1. Make sure you have all credentials - access to Open Source vault in 1Password.
   1. Can login as sumoapi https://oss.sonatype.org/index.html
   2. Can import and verify the signing key:

      gpg --import ~/Desktop/api.private.key
      gpg-agent --daemon
      touch a
      gpg --use-agent --sign a
      gpg -k
      

   3. Have nexus and signing credentials in ~/.gradle/gradle.properties

      nexus_username=sumoapi
      nexus_password=${sumoapi_password_for_sonatype_nexus}
      signing.gnupg.executable=gpg
      signing.gnupg.keyName=${id_of_imported_sumoapi_key}
      signing.gnupg.passphrase=${password_for_imported_sumoapi_key}
      

2. Remove -SNAPSHOT suffix from version in build.gradle
3. Make a release branch with Scala version and project version, ex. sumo-java-client-2.13:

   export RELEASE_VERSION=sumo-java-client-2.13
   git checkout -b ${RELEASE_VERSION}
   git add build.gradle
   git commit -m "[release] ${RELEASE_VERSION}"
   

4. Perform a release:

   ./gradlew build publish
   

5. Go to https://oss.sonatype.org/index.html#stagingRepositories, search for com.sumologic, close and release your repo. NOTE: If you had to login, reload the URL. It doesn't take you to the right page post-login
6. Update the README.md and CHANGELOG.md with the new version and set upcoming snapshot version in build.gradle, ex. 2.14-SNAPSHOT
7. Commit the change and push as a PR:

   git add build.gradle README.md CHANGELOG.md
   git commit -m "[release] Updating version after release ${RELEASE_VERSION}"
   git push
