A collection of release and changelog management script you can easily use via NPM.

Installation

$ npm install @codastic/release

Features

  • Creates a CHANGELOG.md containing all commits starting with Merge pull request….
  • Bumps the package version and adds version headlines to the CHANGELOG.md.
  • Creates a GitHub release.

Quick Start

Running npm install @codastic/release adds the following scripts to you local node_modules/.bin folder:

  • update-changelog: Adds merged pulled requests since last versioned release to CHANGELOG.md, Supports pull requests from Github and Bitbucket.

  • release: Bumps a new versioned release of the current state into CHANGELOG.md and package.json.

  • release-github: Creates a Github release by zipping and uploading the build folder and using current version number from package.json.

To integrate the release process into your project/package just run $ npm install --save-dev @codastic/release.

Then use the installed scripts in you package.json scripts. e.g.

{
  "scripts": {
    "build": "[your build command]",
    "changes": "update-changelog --dry-run .",
    "prerelease": "npm run -s test && update-changelog .",
    "release": "release .",
    "postrelease": "npm run -s build && release-github ./ ./dist",
    "test": "[your test command]"
  }
}

If you run this script the first time, it asks for a GitHub token, which will be stored in [ROOT_DIR]/.github-release. Here you can learn how how create your personal GitHub token.

IMPORTANT To prevent pushing your personal token to a remote you should add this file to your .gitignore.

  • Node 6.10 or higher is required.
node --version  # 6.10 or higher
  • Git version 2.7 or higher is required for github release script.
git --version  # 2.7 or higher
  • The repository needs to be checked out via SSH. Need help?
