tag-fn v0.4.2
Tag-fn
CLI command to create Github tags for your repos
Argumentation
Setting tags in Github is not hard, but it seems like something that could be automated as we need to use the UI for that.
How it works
Tag-fn
uses Puppeteer
library to log in your Github account and generate a new tag 0.2.0
for the repo where the command tag 0.2.0
is executed.
If no argument is passed, then it will automatically generate minor tag release.
In other words, if the current tag is 0.1.0
and command tag
is executed, then this will result in automatic generation of 0.2.0
tag.
Initialization
- Install
yarn global add tag-fn
- Setting credentials
As Tag-fn
uses Puppeteer
library, this means that the library needs information about your Github username and password. Feel free to explore the code of Tag-fn
to ensure that this sensitive data is not at risk.
One option is set Github credentials is to set GITHUB_USER
and GITHUB_PASSWORD
as your enviroinment variables.
The other possibility is to run once the command tag init
and fill the form with your Github credentials.
How to use?
Command is of type tag ${tagValue}
tagValue
is optional.If
tagValue
is omitted, then default value ofminor
will be applied.If there is no previous tag, then the new tag will be
0.1.0
(iftagValue
isminor
). If you runtag patch
, then the published tag will be0.0.1
.tagValue
can be just a text likefoo
.tagValue
can either specify explicit version(tag 4.2.0
) or be one ofmajor
,minor
andpatch
.
when tagValue === 'patch'
Current tag: 0.2.2
New tag: 0.2.3
Current tag: 0.2.9
New tag: 0.3.0
when tagValue === 'minor'
Current tag: 0.2.2
New tag: 0.3.0
Current tag: 0.9.2
New tag: 1.0.0
when tagValue === 'major'
Current tag: 0.2.2
New tag: 1.0.0
Additional info
You can run the command in the project root folder or any project subfolder.
It makes sense to have a clean repo state before running the
tag
command.
