Releasor

Build Status

Command line tool to automate node module releasing to NPM and Git. And of course, releasor has been released with releasor. :stew: :dog2: Releasor is used in ProgressBar.js, git-hours, arr-mutations, and many others. It has proven itself in production releases.

Don't *

*bump patch version*
git add package.json
git commit -m "Release *version*"
git tag *version*
npm publish
git push origin *tag*
git push

Do

releasor

And you will get list of commits since last release conveniently to stdout. Remember to add release notes to the new GitHub release.

<br> <br>

* npm version actually automates most of the stuff, but releasor gives some more control to the automation. The point I'm trying to make is that you shouldn't do a release manually.

What it does

Install

npm install -g releasor
