| 1 | +# MariaDB Community Server Release Dashboard |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +## Scope |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +The purpose of this dashboard is to track all builds associated with the **planned releases** defined in Jira under the **MDEV project**. |
| 6 | +A release is considered *planned* when its **Status = UNRELEASED**. |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +When multiple point releases exist within the same series (e.g., **12.3.1**, **12.3.2**, **12.3.3**, ...), **only the most recent release within that series** is included in the dashboard. |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +--- |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +## Data Retrieval |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +Data is extracted from the Buildbot API for each **`bb-<series>-release`** branch, but only when the **MariaDB version** on the **latest change** of that branch **matches the planned version in Jira**. |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +Only builders tagged with **`release_packages`** are taken into account. |
| 17 | +If the list of relevant builders is incomplete, please contact a **Buildbot Maintainer** to add the appropriate tag to the required builder. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +As long as the MariaDB version matches across **Jira** and **Buildbot**, the dashboard will display data for that release. |
| 20 | +If a version is marked as **RELEASED** in Jira, it will automatically be removed from the dashboard. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +### MISC |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +- The rendered HTML page is cached for `CACHE_DURATION` to avoid excessive API calls. |
| 25 | +- MariaDB version is extracted from the **source VERSION file.** |
| 26 | +- For a given change (tarball number), only the most recent build from each builder is considered. This accounts for re-runs caused by sporadic test failures. |

| 30 | +## Status Definitions |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +### **Pending** |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +A release is marked *Pending* when: |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +1. The `bb-<series>-release` branch does not exist, **or** |
| 37 | +1. The branch exists but there is **no Buildbot run** matching the MariaDB version planned in Jira, **or** |
| 38 | +1. One or more builds are **in progress** or **not yet executed**, and **no failed build exists**. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +### **Releasable** |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +A release is marked *Releasable* when: |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +1. All builds within scope are **successful**. |
| 45 | +1. This **does not imply** that development for the release is complete, only that the `bb-<series>-release` branch is currently in a healthy state. |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +### **Unreleasable** |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +A release is marked *Unreleasable* when: |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +1. One or more builds that produce packages have failed. |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +### **Needs Attention** |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +A release is marked *Needs Attention* when: |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +1. At least one normal builder has failed (probably MTR) but **there is no failed** autobake (producing packages for CI) builder. |
