BREAKING CHANGE: Committing or creating files in the `publish` plugin hook is not supported anymore and now must be done in the `prepare` hook
Plugins with a `publish` hook that makes a commit or create a file that can be committed must use the `prepare` hook.
Even the user set Git credentials via environment variable, use the configured URL (with authentication) if it works.
This allow users to push tags and commits via ssh while still using the GitHub/GitLab API.
- Replace `commander.js` with `yargs`
- Add CLI unit tests
- Add a `--version` option
- Improve `--help` output
- Remove `commander.js` related workaround
- Allow to set list option with arg repetition or space separated list
- Maintain the list options defined as comma separated list
- 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
- Remove the `getLastRelease` plugin type
- Retrieve the last release based on Git tags
- Create the next release Git tag before calling the `publish` plugins
BREAKING CHANGE: Remove the `getLastRelease` plugin type
The `getLastRelease` plugins will not be called anymore.
BREAKING CHANGE: Git repository authentication is now mandatory
The Git authentication is now mandatory and must be set via `GH_TOKEN`, `GITHUB_TOKEN`, `GL_TOKEN`, `GITLAB_TOKEN` or `GIT_CREDENTIALS` as described in [CI configuration](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release/blob/caribou/docs/usage/ci-configuration.md#authentication).
- Remove `@semantic-release/condition-travis` from the default plugins
- Verify the current branch in the core
- Verify the build is not triggered by a PR in the core
- Run in dry-run mode if not triggered on CI
- Dry-run mode runs the `verifyConditions` plugins, allowing to detect configuration error locally
- Return without error when no version has to be released due to no changes
- Return without error if the build is triggered from a PR
- Return without error if the current branch is not the configured branch
- CLI return with exit code 1 if there is a `semanticReleaseError`, allowing to fail builds in case of config error, missing token etc...
BREAKING CHANGE: `semantic-release` doesn't make sure it runs only on one Travis job anymore.
The CI configuration has to be done such that `semantic-release`
- runs only once per build
- runs only after all tests are successful on every jobs of the build
- runs on Node >=8
This can easily be done with [travis-deploy-once](https://github.com/semantic-release/travis-deploy-once).
Migration Guide
Modify your `.travis.yml` to use `travis-deploy-once`.
Replace:
```yaml
after_success:
- npm run semantic-release
```
by:
Replace
```yaml
after_success:
- npm install -g travis-deploy-once@4
- travis-deploy-once "npm run semantic-release"
```
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.
`npm` is called through `semantic-release` and in the integration test to make some assertion.
By isolating the the environment variables passed to `semantic-release` it's easier to avoid a mistake that would pass the test environment that contains is own auth variables.
When the test are run npm read the ~/.npmrc and ./.npmrc files and set some environment variables starting with `npm_`.
When the test create temporary folders and created a `.npmrc` the values there are ignored as the environment variables take precedence.
This commit remove this environment variable (from the local `process.env`) before starting the integrations test and restore them after. This way the `./.npmrc` files created in temp directory for the test are correctly used.
- Do not rely on `package.json` anymore
- Use `cosmiconfig` to load the configation. `semantic-release` can be configured:
- via CLI options (including plugin names but not plugin options)
- in the `release` property of `package.json` (as before)
- in a `.releaserc.yml` or `.releaserc.js` or `.releaserc.js` or `release.config.js` file
- in a `.releaserc` file containing `json`, `yaml` or `javascript` module
- Add the `repositoryUrl` options (used across `semantic-release` and plugins). The value is determined from CLi option, or option configuration, or package.json or the git remote url
- Verifies that `semantic-release` runs from a git repository
- `pkg` and `env` are not passed to plugin anymore
- `semantic-release` can be run both locally and globally. If ran globally with non default plugins, the plugins can be installed both globally or locally.
BREAKING CHANGE: `pkg` and `env` are not passed to plugin anymore.
Plugins relying on a `package.json` must verify the presence of a valid `package.json` and load it.
Plugins can use `process.env` instead of `env`.
