CI Scripts
Centralize CircleCI scripts for all project
Usage
Install release management on a CircleCI project
Add the prerelease
job in the .circleci/config.yml
file of your project
- Add a node executor if you don't already have one, to run the script.
executors:
(...)
node:
docker:
- image: circleci/node:10.11.0
- Add the prerelease job.
jobs:
(...)
create-prerelease:
executor: node
steps:
- run:
name: Create pre-release
command: npx @aircall/ci-scripts prerelease
- Use the job in a workflow.
workflows:
version: 2
commit-workflow:
jobs:
(...)
- create-prerelease:
requires:
- {job_name}
Add the release
job
jobs:
(...)
convert-release:
executor: node
steps:
- run:
name: Convert pre-release to release
command: npx @aircall/ci-scripts release --from-prerelease
Use the node executor and insert the job in a workflow just like for the prerelease
job.
Mandatory environments variables
Add JIRA_BASE_URL
and GITHUB_CREDENTIALS
env vars in CircleCI.
Authorize GitHub deployment account in your project
Authorize our deployment Github account to access to your GitHub project as a Collaborator: https://github.com/{username}/{project}/settings/collaboration
Run locally
Github credentials
You'll need to pass your Github credentials to run a command. Those credentials are formatted as username:access_token
.
To generate a new access token:
- in Github, go to the Settings page and then in the Developer settings section
- then in Personal access tokens, you can generate a new access token. You only have to select the
repo
scope.
Link your project to ci-scripts
For your project to use the local ci-scripts
project, you must:
- from the
ci-scripts
project, run npm link
- from your project, run
npm link ci-scripts
Now you should be able to run ci-scripts
from your project. You'll miss some environment variables though.
Example: fetch the version of the latest (pre)release locally
To fetch the version of the latest release of the phone, call the latest_version
command with the correct variables:
CIRCLE_PROJECT_USERNAME
: aircallCIRCLE_PROJECT_REPONAME
: the project for which you want to retrieve the latest release versionGITHUB_CREDENTIALS
: concatenation of your Github username and your personal access tokenJIRA_BASE_URL
: aircall Jira base url
CIRCLE_PROJECT_USERNAME=aircall CIRCLE_PROJECT_REPONAME=phone GITHUB_CREDENTIALS=litil:access_token JIRA_BASE_URL=https://aircall.atlassian.net ci-scripts latest_version
Replace access_token
with your personal access token.
Features
Check running jobs
Verify if there is an ongoing Workflow on CircleCI, and if there is one, make a pause.
This script is particularly usefull when run on deployment jobs, to ensure no overlapping deployment is possible.
npx ci-scripts check-running-jobs
Launch Jenkins End-to-end tests
This will launch a test suite on a Jenkins instance with the Parameterized Build plugin.
The script then watches the queue, waits for the test suite to end and notifies on Slack if the test suite fails.
npx ci-scripts e2e-tests
Create a GitHub draft release
Create a release draft with a generated changelog based on merged Pull Requests from the last release to the CircleCI Workflow current commit.
npx ci-scripts draft
Create a GitHub prerelease or release
If there is no draft:
Create a prerelease/release with a generated changelog based on merged Pull Requests from the last release to the CircleCI Workflow current commit.
If there is a draft:
Convert the draft into a prerelease/release. If the draft is on a different target commit that the release, The draft will be converted with only the needed changelog for the prerelease/release, and another draft will be created with the changelog diff.
npx ci-scripts prerelease
npx ci-scripts release
Same as above, but the changelog will be generated from the last release to the last merged Pull Request
npx ci-scripts prerelease --to-last-commit
npx ci-scripts release --to-last-commit
Create the prerelease/release on an existing tag, based on CIRCLE_TAG
npx ci-scripts prerelease --from-circle-ci-tag
npx ci-scripts release --from-circle-ci-tag
Convert a GitHub pre-release as a release
npx ci-scripts release --from-prerelease
Generate the changelog output (display only)
npx ci-scripts changelog
