Add automatically releasing to Github project

Posted on   |   In ,   |  

semantic-release

  1. npm i -g semantic-release cli

  2. semantic-release-cli setup

    • it will add travis.yml to the project
    • package.json changes
      • version is removed
      • add semantic-release task
      • add semantic-release to devDependencies

commitizen

Since semantic-release uses conventional commit message to determine version, this tool will make it easier.

  1. npm install -D commitizen cz-conventional-changelog
    • add commitizen & cz-conventional-changelog to package.json
  2. run commitizen init cz-conventional-changelog --save-dev --save-exact
  3. add task "commit": "git-cz" to package.json

TravisCI

The .travis.yml should probably look like
