This document is aimed at the people deploying Monica on https://monicahq.com, and does not apply to the people installing Monica for their own use.

Before deploying a new version

• Make sure config/monica.php contains the number of the new release you are about to create.
• Update CHANGELOG.md accordingly.
• Create a new release on https://version.monicahq.com with the release notes.
• Create a new release on https://github.com/monicahq/monica/releases, which will also automatically create a new tag.
• Write the release note with the tool hosted on https://monicahq.com/login
• Push the code to production.

Deployment of the Docker images

This guide has been posted by kstrauser - thanks for his help. Here are the steps necessary to deploy Monica on Docker hub:

• You need an account on Docker hub.
• You need to have Docker installed on your machine.
• Run the following commands (example for the version 3.4.5):

git reset --hard v3.4.5
make docker_build docker_tag docker_push

The image should be up on the Docker Hub.
