auto

Generate releases based on semantic version labels on pull requests

Automated releases powered by pull request labels. Streamline your release workflow and publish constantly! auto is meant to be run in a continuous integration (CI) environment, but all the commands work locally as well.

Release Features:

• Calculate semantic version bumps from PRs
• Skip a release with the skip-release label
• Publish canary releases from PRs or locally
• Generate changelogs with fancy headers, authors, and monorepo package association
• Use labels to create new changelog sections
• Generate a GitHub release

Pull Request Interaction Features:

• Get the labels for a PR
• Set the status of a PR
• Check that a pull request has a SemVer label
• Comment on a PR with markdown
• Update the PR body with contextual build metadata
