Prerequisites

  • Github url needs to be configured at package.json repository field
  • Ensure GitHub access token available at CONVENTIONAL_GITHUB_RELEASER_TOKEN (or GITHUB_TOKEN) environment variable. The scopes for the token you need is public_repo or repo (if you need to access private repos).
  • Tags for given versions need to exist in GitHub repository before pushing release notes. Tags need to follow format of v<version>, or in case of multi-package repositories follow format of <packageName>@<version>

Usage

CLI

github-release-from-cc-changelog <versionTag>

e.g.

github-release-from-cc-changelog v1.0.0

Resolve and publish notes for all versions

At package directory run:

github-release-all-from-cc-changelog

By default v is assumed as tag postfix. In case of multi package repositories this can be overriden by passing --tag-prefix e.g.:

github-release-all-from-cc-changelog --tag-prefix=subpackage@

dump-release-notes-from-cc-changelog <versionTag>

const releaseFromChangelog = require("github-release-from-cc-changelog");

releaseFromChangelog(packageDirectory, versionTag).then(() => {
  console.log(`Successfully pushed release notes for "${ versionTag }"`);
});
