System Administrator Guide

In order to deploy into the PKP servers, we need to create tar.gz file with the plugin folder and send it to PKP support: support@publicknowledgeproject.org. They will review the code and deploy into the production servers.

We use the ./VERSION file to generate the release version number. This version number is then used in the plugin <plugin>/version.xml file and in the generated tar.gz artifact name.

To create a release, execute the Makefile target:

make release

This will increase the version number, update the PPR plugins version data, and create the tar.gz files under the project releases folder.
