Kickout

Conveniently Release Git-Versioned NPM Package

Abstract

This is a small opinionated Command-Line Interface (CLI) for conveniently releasing a Git-versioned NPM package. It performs sanity checks, bumps the semantic version in package.json, commits the changes to Git, tags the repository with the new version and publishes the package via NPM. The particular executed command are:

$ git status --porcelain
$ npm prepublish
$ npm view <package-name> version
# update package.json with <package-version>
$ git commit -m "release version <package-version>" package.json
$ git tag <package-version>
$ git push && git push --tags
$ npm publish --tag=<package-tag>

Attention

The executed shell commands might garble or even destroy some of your data. Hence, be very careful and use the Kickout command on your own risk. Especially, perform a dry-run with option --noop always first to see what particular commands would be executed. Also notice that the initial "npm publish" intentionally has to be performed manually.
