Release Management

Setup

This project is configured to use auto for release management. It generates a changelog and pushes it to both GitHub and npm. Therefore, you need to configure access to both:

NPM_TOKEN Create a token with both Read and Publish permissions.
GH_TOKEN Create a token with the repo scope.

Add them to the .env file at the root of your project:

GH_TOKEN=<value you just got from GitHub>
NPM_TOKEN=<value you just got from npm>

Creating a releasing

To create a release locally you can run the following command, otherwise the GitHub action will make the release for you.

yarn release

That will:

Build and package the addon code
Bump the version
Push a release to GitHub and npm
Push a changelog to GitHub
