ASF review guide

Jiacai Liu edited this page Nov 12, 2024 · 14 revisions

When we make ASF-compliant release, there are some constraints to follow, this guide will list methods to verify if it's valid.

Checksums and signatures

There are mainly 3 files in each release, for example

apache-horaedb-incubating-rust-client-v2.0.0-src.tar.gz
apache-horaedb-incubating-rust-client-v2.0.0-src.tar.gz.asc
apache-horaedb-incubating-rust-client-v2.0.0-src.tar.gz.sha512

After download all files, using following commands to check if they are valid.

Note: In order to gpg to work, you need to import keys from https://downloads.apache.org/incubator/horaedb/KEYS

wget https://downloads.apache.org/incubator/horaedb/KEYS
gpg --import KEYS
$ sha512sum -c apache-horaedb-incubating-rust-client-v2.0.0-src.tar.gz.sha512 
apache-horaedb-incubating-rust-client-v2.0.0-src.tar.gz: OK

$ gpg --verify apache-horaedb-incubating-rust-client-v2.0.0-src.tar.gz.asc 
gpg: Signature made Wed 12 Jun 2024 11:05:04 AM CST using RSA key ID 08A0BAB4
gpg: Good signature from "[email protected]"
gpg:                 aka "Jiacai Liu <[email protected]>"
gpg:                 aka "Jiacai Liu <[email protected]>"
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg:          There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
Primary key fingerprint: 6F73 4AE4 297C 7F62 B605  4F91 D302 6E5C 08A0 BAB4

As you can see, there is a warning in gpg, you can check the fingerprint here https://keys.openpgp.org/ image

If the fingerprint on the page match what we see in terminal, then we can ensure the signatures is signed by right owner.

If you see other output, then something maybe wrong.

No unexpected binary files

fd -t file --exclude target --exec file {} \; | grep -v text | grep -v 'image data'

This will output files which are not ASCII and UTF-8.

Note: fd is required for this check

cargo install fd-find

All source files have ASF headers

hawkeye check

Note: hawkeye is required for this check

cargo install hawkeye
