The emoji *must* be at index=2 as each line looks like:
"* <commit message>"
We use index=2 to make test whether emoji is first character(s) in the
commit message
- Added the first version of release-utils
- Will release a v0.0.1
- Be able to create changelog.md based on previous version.
- Be able to merge & clean changelog.md.
- Be able to create a gist
- Be able to filter commits by emojis (user-facing changes)
- Be able to create a draft release
- Be able to upload a release zip to Github
The goal is to use our release-utils in multiple places (e.g. in Casper).
We will discuss if we want to replace some of our manual written utilities by existing npm packages. But to avoid breaking everything, we do it iteratively. Our release utils works and was designed based on our needs. We've tested some release utility in the past, they were all not really satisfying. TBC...
- this was originally created in the slimer repo, as that's where it was first used
- it's also used in migrate, should be used in gscan, and hopefully eventually, will also be part of Ghost-CLI
- therefore, it belongs somewhere more general
- run `slimer fix package.json` to add a files array everywhere
- manually update slimer-cli to have a files array for bin
- manually update slimer to include commands or else this will break!!
- update pretty-cli to use our standard /lib/ pattern
- this means we only publish what we need to npm, and keeps things cleaner and safer
- Projects can be public or private -> they are either oss or not.
- With flags like this, there is no default. We either want to pass a flag or be prompted later if we forget
- To achieve this: added a custom sywac type of Switch, that is able to handle this concept
- We may want to change this to a proper boolean that defaults to true
- That would be easier, and possibly more sensible for the public tool
- Getting used to developing in the monorepo structure
- Add more instructions that are relevant, push people to the top level repo
- Make READMEs as consistent as possible
- PROFIT!
