molecule-plugins

This repository contains the following molecule plugins:

• azure
• containers
• docker
• ec2
• gce
• openstack
• podman
• vagrant

Installing molecule-plugins does not install dependencies specific to each, plugin. To install these you need to install the extras for each plugin, like pip3 install 'molecule-plugins[azure]'.

Before installing these plugins be sure that you uninstall their old standalone packages, like pip3 uninstall molecule-azure. If you fail to do so, you will end-up with a broken setup, as multiple plugins will have the same entry points, registered.

Creating new releases

The release.yml workflow generates the wheel and uploads the release to PyPI. Here are the steps you need to kick that process off:

1. Review the commit logs and decide on the next version.

   • Breaking changes should increment to a new major version.
   • New features should increment to a new minor version.
   • Bug fixes and small changes should increment to a new patch version.

2. Create a new tag and push it to the repo.

   git tag -s <NEW_VERSION> -m "Tag message"
   git push --tags upstream

   It is possible to create lightweight tags using git tag <NEW_VERSION> but signed tags are preferred.

3. Publish the release with either the GitHub CLI or in a browser. See the GitHub documentation about managing releases.

4. Check the release workflow runs successfully.

5. Verify the new version is available from the molecule-plugins page on PyPI.
