Motivation
We don't leverage our conventional commit usage to help automate versioning.
Changes
Wraps the
lerna publish
command into a newlerna:publish
npm script with additional configuration to address the two issues above.--conventional-commits
: Auto-selects the package number for us.--no-changelog
: Seems like the changelog generated is per package, which we don't want. Let's keep doing this step manually.Having this in a command within the repo helps in two ways:
I also changed the root
package.json
version number to0.0.0-development
since Lerna doesn't update the root package.json number by default and our version number was stale. There's a workaround that involves adding the root folder as a package itself, but then you have to run eachlerna
command with--no-private
which is annoying and not worth it IMO.Testing
I tested this manually by running
lerna version --no-push --no-git-tag-version --force-publish --conventional-commits --no-changelog
, which is as close to a dry run as possible since Lerna does not yet support dry runs.
