sonatype-yourkit

This project is used to make releases YourKit Profiler API to the Sonatype Maven Repository.

YourKit currently does not publish the API to Maven Central, but their license allows it, so we are doing it here.

See Sonatype's full release guide.
The section we are interested in is Staging Existing Artifacts.

We have written some scripts to make things easier. They work for us, but YMMV.

Step 1: add-version.rb

Initializes a version directory with data from a download.

After you download a release of YourKit, for example version 11.0.10, you can run:

Mac: ./add-version.rb path/to/YourKit_Java_Profiler_11.0.10
Linux / others: ./add-version.rb path/to/yjp-11.0.10

This should create a new version directory and copy the right files from your downloaded version.

You should compare this folder against another one in this repository to see that things look right.
This script will likely get out of date as YourKit updates how their downloads are structured.
If something looks wrong you need to fix it by hand. Also if you can you should update the script.

Step 2: mvn-sonatype-stage.sh

Stages artifacts to Sonatype.

This script is a generic tool we've used to aid in staging artifacts.
It is not tied to the structure of YourKit's data or this repository so it should not break.
We welcome you to use it in other projects as well.

Keeping with the example previously, if you have added version 11.0.10, you would run:

$ cd 11.0.10
$ ../mvn-sonatype-stage.sh -a yjp-controller-api-redist -v 11.0.10

Step 3: Release Staged Artifact

This step has to be done by hand.

After staging you need to follow Sonatype's release process.
