Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

Releasing

  1. Bump version number in lib/yabeda/gc/version.rb

    In case of pre-releases keep in mind rubygems/rubygems#3086 and check version with command like Gem::Version.new(Yabeda::gc::VERSION).to_s

  2. Fill CHANGELOG.md with missing changes, add header with version and date.

  3. Make a commit:

    bundle # to update Gemfile.lock
    git add lib/yabeda/gc/version.rb CHANGELOG.md Gemfile.lock
    version=$(ruby -r ./lib/yabeda/gc/version.rb -e "puts Gem::Version.new(Yabeda::GC::VERSION)")
    git commit --message="${version}: " --edit
  4. Create annotated tag:

    git tag v${version} --annotate --message="${version}: " --edit --sign
  5. Fill version name into subject line and (optionally) some description (list of changes will be taken from changelog and appended automatically)

  6. Push it:

    git push --follow-tags
  7. GitHub Actions will create a new release, build and push gem into RubyGems! You're done!
