Installing

Add the package to your project by running:

npm i -D @public-js/cc-github-releaser

Create a new token or use an existing one. Make sure the token you're going to use has a public_repo scope (or repo for private repositories).

Assign you token to any of the following env variables: GITHUB_TOKEN, GH_TOKEN, CONVENTIONAL_GITHUB_RELEASER_TOKEN or pass it with any of these parameters: -t or --token.

Workflow setup

For you convenience, you might want to add the following to your root package.json file:

"scripts": {
  "github-release": "cc-github-releaser"
}

Execute it from you workflow like this:

run: npm run github-release

Recommended workflow

• Commit your changes
• Make sure you build/tests pass
• Bump version with any tool e.g. standard-version or do it manually then commit the change
• Create & push a version tag e.g. 1.2.3
• Execute cc-github-releaser to create a release
