How it works

You build or patch your widget, locally you lint and test it. If you are happy that there are no errors. (You don't have to push the Build, the action will do it, just make sure you can build the widget successfully)

Next update your package.json version to the next logical version (1.0.0 => 1.0.1 for example), commit and push you code.

This will do multiple things:

• Update the version in your package.xml
• Push a Tag and a Release
• It will also push that code

The acton steps are as follow (Internal Workings of the Action)

• Builds a helper object with all paths it will need

• Reads the package's package.json

  • Saves package name and version

• Parses package.xml and makes it into a js object

  • Saves the version

• Sees if the package.json and package.xml matches, if it does not match the code continues.

• Initialize Git and set Credentials

• Runs npm build and builds the package

• Change package.xml version to what ever the package.json was.

• Create a Tag Name

• Create a Tag on the Git Repo

• Commits Changes to Github

• Converts Tag to Release

• Uploads Build to Release

• Done

Some things to Note

As the action will change the package.xlm and upload the build, you will always have changes in your git working tree. so make sure to pull your code when done as the bot has committed some changes

🛑 Issues && Known Limits

• If the Widget does not build successfully through either a lint or ts error it the action will fall over.
