Creating a release
You will need to have the project on your computer and NPM installed.
The whole process summarized
- Get all the PRs since last release.
- Create a new branch with the updated version and changelog for the team to review.
- Create Github release.
- Release it 🎉
First we will need to update the version in the
/package.json (the one in root directory) to corresponding version.Then get the name of the Stooa's remote repo in your config. In our case is
upstream because this is how we named it.To check yours run
git remote -v
And make sure you use the Stooa repo, not your fork.
Then, once we know the remote name, we get all the PRs since last release and update the
changelog.md in the project just runningnpx auto-changelog --package --remote=[name_of_your_remote]
This command will output our updated
CHANGELOG.mdNow create the new branch to push all the changes made to the changelog. This way the team could review that everything is correct to approve it!
Naming convention is
release/[number_of_release], so if you are releasing the version 2.8.8 it should be release/2.8.8.Once the PR is approved and merged, we head to github releases to create a new one with the same number in the tag release we previously used in the
package.json.The content of the release will be the last changes in the
CHANGELOG.mdAfter filling all the data just hit Publish release!
Well done, you've made a Stooa release 😄
