# Release Process

The release process at Multiwoven is fully automated through GitHub Actions.

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Automation Stages" icon="github" defaultOpen="true">
    Here's an overview of our automation stages, each facilitated by specific GitHub Actions:

    <Steps>
      <Step title="Weekly Release Workflow">
        * **Action**: [Release Workflow](https://github.com/Multiwoven/multiwoven/actions/workflows/release.yaml)
        * **Description**: Every Tuesday, a new release is automatically generated with a minor version tag (e.g., v0.4.0) following semantic versioning rules. This process also creates a pull request (PR) for release notes that summarize the changes in the new version.
        * **Additional Triggers**: The same workflow can be manually triggered to create a patch version (e.g., v0.4.1 for quick fixes) or a major version (e.g., v1.0.0 for significant architectural changes). This is done using the workflow dispatch feature in GitHub Actions.

      </Step>

      <Step title="Automated Release Notes on Merge">
        * **Action**: [Create Release Note on Merge](https://github.com/Multiwoven/multiwoven/actions/workflows/create-release-notes.yaml)
        * **Description**: When the release notes PR is merged, it triggers the creation of a new release with detailed [release notes](https://github.com/Multiwoven/multiwoven/releases/tag/v0.4.0) on GitHub.
      </Step>

      <Step title="Docker Image Releases">
        * **Description**: Docker images need to be manually released based on the newly created tags from the GitHub Actions.
        * **Actions**:
          * [Build and push Multiwoven server docker image to Docker Hub](https://github.com/Multiwoven/multiwoven/actions/workflows/server-docker-hub-push-tags.yaml): This action handles the server-side Docker image push to docker hub with tag as latest and the new release tag i.e **v0.4.0**
