- Allow to run semantic-release (via API) from anywhere passing the current working directory.
- Allows to simplify the tests and to run them in parallel in both the core and plugins.
added quotes around plugin name to set it apart from the message. without the quotes, some consumers
were missunderstanding the successful loading of the `fail` plugin as a load failure and assuming
something was broken
resolves#811
- Allow `publish` plugins to return an `Object` with information related to the releases
- Add the `success` plugin hook, called when all `publish` are successful, receiving a list of release
- Add the `fail` plugin hook, called when an error happens at any point, receiving a list of errors
- Add detailed message for each error
Adds the options `extends`, which can be defined via configuration file or CLI arguments to a single path or an array of paths of shareable configuration.
A shareable configuration is a file or a module that can be loaded with `require`.
Options is defined by merging in the following order of priority:
- CLI/API
- Configuration file
- Shareable configuration (from right to left)
Options set in a shareable configuration can be unset by setting it to `null` or `undefined` in the main configuration file. If a default value applies to this property it will be used.
BREAKING CHANGE: Each plugin is expected to return an async function or a Promise returning function. The callback parameter is not passed to plugins anymore.
- Add a new plugin type: `publish`
- Add support for multi-plugin. A plugin module can now return an object with a property for each plugin type
- Uses by default [npm](https://github.com/semantic-release/npm) and [github](https://github.com/semantic-release/github) in addition of Travis for the verify condition plugin
- Uses by default [npm](https://github.com/semantic-release/npm) and [github](https://github.com/semantic-release/github) for the publish plugin
- `gitTag` if one can be found is passed to `generateNotes` for both `lastRelease` and `nextRelease`
- `semantic-release` now verifies the plugin configuration (in the `release` property of `package.json`) and throws an error if it's invalid
- `semantic-release` now verifies each plugin output and will throw an error if a plugin returns an unexpected value.
BREAKING CHANGE: `githubToken`, `githubUrl` and `githubApiPathPrefix` have to be set at the [github](https://github.com/semantic-release/github) plugin level. They can be set via `GH_TOKEN`, `GH_URL` and `GH_PREFIX` environment variables.
BREAKING CHANGE: the `npm` parameter is not passed to any plugin anymore. Each plugin have to read `.npmrc` if they needs to (with https://github.com/kevva/npm-conf for example).
