Development

Making a Release

This project uses automated releases via GitHub Actions. To create a new release:

1. Using the release script (recommended):

   # For a patch release (0.1.0 -> 0.1.1)
   ./scripts/release.sh patch
   
   # For a minor release (0.1.0 -> 0.2.0)
   ./scripts/release.sh minor
   
   # For a major release (0.1.0 -> 1.0.0)
   ./scripts/release.sh major
   

2. Manual process:

   # Bump version in package.json
   npm version patch  # or minor/major
   
   # Push the tag
   git push origin master
   git push origin v<new-version>
   

The GitHub Actions workflow will automatically:

• Build and test the package
• Create a GitHub release with changelog
• Publish to npm

Setting up GitHub Secrets

For the automated release to work, you need to set up these GitHub repository secrets:

1. NPM_TOKEN: Your npm authentication token
   • Go to https://www.npmjs.com/settings/tokens
   • Create a new "Automation" token
   • Add it as a repository secret named NPM_TOKEN
