Description Ross Burton 2026-01-15 18:16:15 UTC
dashboard.yoctoproject.org/releases.json is:

- Missing the 1.3 release entirely
- Whinlatter is listed as 'current development' and hasn't had a release.
Comment 1 Antonin Godard 2026-01-16 09:26:23 UTC
I've sent a series that switches the releases.json generation to use yocto-docs, as Poky is no longer updated: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251219-releases-parser-updates-v1-0-6830e6a67db0@bootlin.com

But some tags are missing on yocto-docs for the JSON to be complete (otherwise we'd lose some information for older releases).

For example, the Zeus branch on yocto-docs has the yocto-3.0.4 tag, but is missing a zeus-23.0.4 (or similar) tag to pick up the "zeus" branch name.

Michael should be able to take care of this.

I'll test and re-send my series once the tags are in.
Comment 2 Michael Halstead 2026-01-22 22:35:27 UTC
All the branch name tags are in place now. This patch is ready for testing.
Comment 3 Antonin Godard 2026-01-23 09:03:26 UTC
Thanks Michael, I've resent my series. I'll attach the output it produces here.

Comment 5 Ross Burton 2026-01-23 10:35:12 UTC
Looks better, thanks both.
Comment 6 Ross Burton 2026-02-12 16:01:48 UTC
The releases.json is still out of date, so the generator patches still need to be merged. Antonin, can you rebase and repost your patch?
Comment 7 Antonin Godard 2026-02-12 16:21:41 UTC
I'm confused, Michael posted and merged a patch earlier today that uses meta-yocto to generate tags instead of yocto-docs[1]. So my series[2] does not apply anymore.

Just to make sure, do we want to use yocto-docs or meta-yocto? The releases.json file generated from yocto-docs seemed fine to me.

I also asked Michael[3]. I'll wait for an answer.
