To regenerate the esptool.exe when upgrading the esptool version download the wanted version and run this:

pip install pyinstaller
pyinstaller --onefile \
            --specpath build_tmp \
            --workpath build_tmp/build \
            --distpath build_tmp/dist \
            esptool.py

to generate the binary.

Installer creation

Automatically

TravisCI automatically generates installers for Linux, Windows and OSX when a tag is created. These are added to a GitHub Releases draft for the tag.

Manual

Linux:

  • run mvn clean install in the project directory
  • run release.sh linux in the installers directory
  • add the version to the resulting file

Windows:

  • download and install WiX Toolset
  • download and install WDK 8
    • or run
      • curl 'https://download.microsoft.com/download/2/4/C/24CA7FB3-FF2E-4DB5-BA52-62A4399A4601/wdk/wdksetup.exe' --output wdksetup.exe
      • ./wdksetup.exe //features + //q //norestart //ceip off
  • add a environment variable WIX=<wix-install-path>\bin
  • run mvn clean install in the project directory
  • run release.sh windows in the installers directory (e.g. in Git Bash)
  • add the version to the resulting files

Mac:

  • run mvn clean install in the project directory
  • run release.sh osx in the installers directory
  • add the version to the resulting file

Release

To release run mvn release:clean release:prepare on the develop branch. The maven release plugin will ask for some information regarding the version numbers and automatically create commits and a tag with the updated versions. Now, merge the used branch into master and remove the last (prepare for next development iteration) commit with git reset HEAD~1 --hard, as it is not needed on master. Finally, push master, develop and the tag (git push --tags).
