Cut 0.19.0 release.

[dhermes]

This is the first release after the rename.

Also updated the account that does deployment from Silvio's to one shared by google-cloud. We'll likely need to ditch the deploy section and write a more customized script using twine once we deploy versions for each sub-package.

Closes #2264.

[theacodes]

@dhermes qq: did we resolve the namespace/import issue? Will users be able to do;

from google.cloud import storage

storage_client = storage.Client()

?

[dhermes]

Other than the services in #2258 (logging and pubsub) everything is a normal package (not a namespace package)

[theacodes]

Can I be a jerk and block the release on that issue? I would prefer not to have to update sample code twice.

[dhermes]

@bjwatson Thoughts on timing?

@jonparrott We are just in a state of flux until a release is cut.

[theacodes]

@dhermes how bad is the state of flux? is it better to push this out quickly or wait for #2258 to be resolved? Are they any other issues that would make upgrading more trivial than just updating imports?

(Apologies for the slew of questions, I just want to make sure I understand the full picture)

[theacodes]

@dhermes also, do we have a changelog?

[dhermes]

I have yet to make the changelog. I'm a bit weary of doing it, it'll be big. Also some people may have started doing squash merges so my typical script won't see those PRs?

[bjwatson]

@dhermes @jonparrott I would like to resolve the following first if possible:

• Support Cloud Client Libraries on Google App Engine standard #1893 (comment) (issue Jacob raised about gRPC dependency remaining in google/longrunning/operations_pb2.py)
• Remove pubsub and logging as namespace packages #2258 (I'll work on this next; I think we have agreement on the path structure, and just need to make sure it works)
• Remove references to grpc.beta gax-python#127 (LGTM'd, but need to be merged and released, and the gax and gcloud dependencies updated)

I can be talked out of any of these if there are urgent overriding needs to get this release out.

[dhermes]

@bjwatson Do you have a timeframe on this? e.g. why hasn't the LGTM'd PR been merged?

[bjwatson]

@dhermes

• Support Cloud Client Libraries on Google App Engine standard #1893 (comment): this will be done today; it's taken much longer than expected due to the many (albeit valuable) discussions about how best to manage the gRPC dependencies
• Remove pubsub and logging as namespace packages #2258: realisitically, I won't be able to get this done before Tuesday or Wednesday of next week, unless @geigerj can take this sooner
• Remove references to grpc.beta gax-python#127: @geigerj can you merge and publish this today?

[geigerj]

@bjwatson gax-python 0.13.0 has been published, although until we refresh codegen, the gax-google-... packages will still be restricted to 0.12.x.

[bjwatson]

We can refresh the packages as part of #2258, unless @dhermes needs this done sooner.

[dhermes]

It'd be nice to have it in today, but I trust you're going as quick as you can.

[bjwatson]

@dhermes I am. Regarding #2258, we can reduce risk and maybe get it done sooner by just focusing on the GAX namespace.

The other part of the problem is fixing the gRPC namespace, mainly to be more consistent, but also to avoid conflicts for the ML libraries (the gRPC packages currently use google.cloud.{api} as a namespace for language, vision, and speech). We can hand-fix the ML gRPC packages ASAP, and then fix the other gRPC packages a little later.

[dhermes]

That SGTM.

[overset]

This would be great to get a 0.19.0 onto PyPy PyPI since the Datastore v1beta2 API is being deprecated on 9/30

https://cloud.google.com/datastore/release-notes

This is a follow-up to our recent email to remind you that Google Cloud Datastore is turning down the v1beta1 and v1beta2 API on September 30, 2016.

The previous 0.18.1 release had v1beta2.

[dhermes]

@overset Thanks for the heads up. FWIW, we haven't supported v1beta2 for a very long time.

• We upgraded from v1beta3 to v1 on August 16, 2016 (c52d363).
• We upgraded from v1beta2 to v1beta3 on January 20, 2016 (64c28fd)

Check out the release history for relevant releases near those dates

[overset]

@dhermes My previous comment was flat-out wrong and thanks for confirming 0.18.1 having upgdaded to Datastore v1beta3 via 64c28fd. We haven't seen a turn-down notice for v1beta3 but it is marked as deprecated. (Thanks for the s/PyPy/PyPI/ on the previous comment as well)

[dhermes]

Sure thing. Not sure when v1beta3 will be turned off.

[daspecster]

@dhermes @tseaver @bjwatson, unless I'm missing something, I think we have all the items for this done?

We might want to have a PR to switch the naming back from #2264 or add it to this PR.

[dhermes]

Time to make release notes. Yay for 130+ PRs!

I also used the UI to look through merged PRs since August 9. I realized part way through that 0.18.1 wasn't a real release, it was a patch release due to broken PyPI deps, so I wanted to be extra careful.

Here is the release notes with stuff left out after. @daspecster Feel free to edit the vision parts inline as much as you like

[tseaver]

I've tweaked the entries all into imperative mode.

[dhermes]

Thanks @tseaver

[daspecster]

I updated vision to be more verbose so it's easier to reference later if needed.

[dhermes]

Content moved to #2336.

[dhermes]

@tseaver @daspecster Are we good to merge here? (Don't know why Travis is being fast on "push" builds to master but not "pr" builds.)

[daspecster]

Green!

[tseaver]

LGTM

[dhermes]

Pushed the tag and added the notes: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-python/releases/tag/0.19.0 (may need #2347 update)

Push to PyPI should come from: https://travis-ci.org/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-python/builds/161121136

[tseaver]

I updated the release notes to include the changes from #2347.
