Bump Tantivy

Follow these steps to bump tantivy to its latest version:

Step 1: Check that we are on the main branch

Run: git branch --show-current

If the current branch is not main, abort and ask the user to switch to the main branch first.

Step 2: Ensure main is up to date

Run: git pull origin main

This ensures we're working from the latest code.

Step 3: Get the latest tantivy SHA

Run: gh api repos/quickwit-oss/tantivy/commits/main --jq '.sha'

Extract the first 7 characters as the short SHA.

Step 4: Update Cargo.toml

Edit quickwit/Cargo.toml and update the rev field in the tantivy dependency to the new short SHA.

The line looks like:

tantivy = { git = "https://github.com/quickwit-oss/tantivy/", rev = "XXXXXXX", ... }

Step 5: Run cargo check and fix compilation errors

Run cargo check in the quickwit directory to verify compilation.

If there are compilation errors:

  • If the fix is straightforward (simple API changes, renames, etc.), fix them without asking
  • If the fix is complex or unclear, ask the user before proceeding

Repeat until cargo check passes.

Step 6: Format code

Run make fmt from the quickwit/ directory to format the code.

Step 7: Update licenses

Run make update-licenses from the quickwit/ directory, then move the generated file:

mv quickwit/LICENSE-3rdparty.csv ./LICENSE-3rdparty.csv

Step 8: Create a new branch

Get the git username: git config user.name | tr ' ' '-' | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'

Get today's date: date +%Y-%m-%d

Create and checkout a new branch named: {username}/bump-tantivy-{date}

Example: paul/bump-tantivy-2024-03-15

Step 9: Commit changes

Stage all modified files and create a commit with message:

Bump tantivy to {short-sha}

Step 10: Push and open a PR

Push the branch and open a PR using:

gh pr create --title "Bump tantivy to {short-sha}" --body "Updates tantivy dependency to the latest commit on main."

Report the PR URL to the user when complete.
