Publish example does not work

[elwayman02]

I tried the following config:

/* jshint node:true */
var RSVP = require('rsvp');
var publisher = require('publish');

// Create promise friendly versions of the methods we want to use
var start = RSVP.denodeify(publisher.start);
var publish = RSVP.denodeify(publisher.publish);

module.exports = {
  manifest: ['package.json'],

  // Publish the new release to NPM after a successful push
  // If run from travis, this will look for the NPM_USERNAME, NPM_PASSWORD and
  // NPM_EMAIL environment variables to publish the package as
  afterPush: function() {
    return start().then(function() {
      return publish({});
    });
  }
};

...with publish added as an npm devDependency for the project.

Unfortunately, it does not seem to get triggered, and I've had to publish manually.

• What version are you using? The afterPush hook was added in v0.2.4.
• Have you done a npm adduser?
• I assume you also added rsvp as a dev dependency
• Are you seeing any errors? Any output at all that is NPM related?
• I'm using this example in ember-data-model-fragments

I know it is cheating, but assuming you run Node 0.12+ or iojs you can just use execSync and call npm publish.

I use the following in quite a few projects:

var execSync = require('child_process').execSync;

module.exports = {
  // Publish the new release to NPM after a successful push
  afterPush: function() {
    console.log('publishing to npm');
    var output = execSync('npm publish', { encoding: 'utf8' });
    console.log(output);
  }
};

@slindberg I'm using ember-cli-release 0.2.3, which is what got automatically installed thanks to the addon blueprint :(

All the more reason for https://github.com/ember-cli/ember-cli/pull/4891, I suppose.
