I could bump it to 2.0.0
since that is likely the next version to be released. It might have an impact on tooling but I can figure it out.
I was going to post the same issue. One of the upsides of doing it is that at the moment npm audit
reports a production vulnerability linked to json-schema-faker
. Since the the latest commit have upgraded that library, this fixed the problem. I.e. releasing a new version would allow using this library without npm audit
vulnerabilities.
Since I've never followed this approach before, bumping master
before you know which version it will apply to, what is the suggested approach? Is there some npm/semver/package.json
documentation somewhere saying how we should do this?
I am trying to understand what the problem is: can't you bump the version in package.json
then publish to npm?
I'm not saying there is a problem, I'm asking for details on the convention.
I am sorry, I think there must be something I do not understand. The convention seems to be to bump the version in package.json
, update changelogs, use git tag
then run npm publish
but you definitely already know this, so I think I might not understand your initial problem.
I'm just talking about the convention of updating package.json
in master
after a release. What should the version
be?
It seems to me (correct me if I'm wrong) that following semver, and going through the new commits (which do not seem to introduce breaking changes but do introduce new features), it should be 1.1.0
.
from my understanding, @whitlockjc is preparing for a v2 release but is not happy that the current code base is stable enough to push something out now. He also thinks the current code base may have drifted too much from v1 that the next update should be a major update.
If the above is correct, I'd recommend releasing the current code base as v2 prerelease (e.g. 2.0.0-alpha.1) https://semver.org
I think regular releases would benefit most users, and if @whitlockjc isn't happy they're stable then doing them as prereleases should hopefully keep everyone happy :-)
Hum: https://github.com/apigee-127/sway/issues/157 It's my humble opinion that all changes to master should result in a version change and a publish.
A good way of implementing this would be:
npm publish
That way, all the users can choose how they receive package updates.
@fed135 I like the idea. Let's say we're in the spot we are now (nearing v2.0.0
release, master
hasn't been managed the way you're suggesting, etc.), how do we get there ASAP? I'm cool with the whole "all changes go through PRs" bit (although I'm not sure I want to wait to get PRs approved for my own changes), all master
changes become some new automatically-versioned, pre-release version that is published. But...how? Want to help?
I've just now implement full CI on my new OSS, I can definitly help :)
I'm already using Travis to do CI but we're not doing CD on master
and I think that's a cool idea.
seems to me that updating package.json as part of a pull request would be rather tedious. What happens when there are multiple pull requests open at the same time? How do you manage who sets their version to what?
Seems like there's a step missing here.
It is indeed, it's a shortcut that only projects with one or two maintainers can take.
If you're up for it, you could add a next
branch to your repo, lock it and mark it as default. PRs will all go to this branch, and when you feel comfortable bumping the package version, you just create a PR from next to master.
This approach is closer to the classic git workflow: https://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/
package.json
is now at 2.0.0
. I'm going to close this for now but I do hope the discussion continues. Once we have an agreed-upon plan, we'll create an appropriately described/named issue to do the work.
Can you please bump up the versions in your package.json to reflect the recent changes? Much appreciated, this will help us as consumers of your package to track changes and version control.
