# Release process

This document describes the release process for the Go bindings.

## Description

1. Ensure the main branch is up-to-date and all tests are passing.

2. Update the CHANGELOG.md with the description of the changes

3. Create a new tag, example:

```sh
git tag v0.0.15
git push --tags
```

4. The CI job will build the artifacts and create a draft release with the artifacts uploaded.

5. Copy the description added in the `CHANGELOG.md` file to the release description.

6. Publish it.

Once published, the artifacts can be downloaded using  the `version`, example: 

`https://github.com/codex-storage/codex-go-bindings/releases/download/v0.0.16/codex-linux-amd64.zip`

It is not recommended to use the `latest` URL because you may face cache issues.
