@bjoluc/semantic-release-config-poetry

A shareable semantic-release configuration and composite GitHub Action for Python packages that use Poetry.

How to use this

• Follow Conventional Commits (for instance, using commitizen).

• Create an API token for PyPI (or another package index of your choice, like Test PyPI).

• If you are using GitHub Actions:

  • Add your PyPI API token as a secret named PYPI_TOKEN.
  • Add a release job to your workflow like this:

  jobs:
    test: ...
    release:
      name: Release
      runs-on: ubuntu-latest
      needs: test
      if: github.repository_owner == 'your-github-name' && github.event_name == 'push' && github.ref == 'refs/heads/main'
      steps:
        - uses: actions/checkout@v3
        - uses: actions/setup-python@v4
          with:
            python-version: "3.10"
        - name: Install poetry
          run: pip install poetry==1.2.1
        - uses: bjoluc/semantic-release-config-poetry@v2
          with:
            pypi_token: ${{ secrets.PYPI_TOKEN }}
  

• If you are not using GitHub Actions, configure a release job in your CI like this:

  • Install Python, Poetry, and a Node.js LTS version
  • Run npm install --no-save @bjoluc/semantic-release-config-poetry
  • Run npx semantic-release --extends @bjoluc/semantic-release-config-poetry

Configuration

The shareable semantic-release configuration exposed by this package requires the following environment variables. When using the GitHub action, each environment variable can be set via its corresponding lower-case input variable (e.g., pypi_token for PYPI_TOKEN).

Environment variable	Description
PYPI_TOKEN	An API token for the PyPI repository specified by PYPI_REPOSITORY
GITHUB_TOKEN	A GitHub API token to publish GitHub releases and comment on resolved issues. The github_token Action input is optional and defaults to the value of the GITHUB_TOKEN secret.

Furthermore, the following optional environment variables can be set:

Environment variable	Description	Default value
PYPI_REPOSITORY	The repository to upload your Python package to (e.g., https://upload.pypi.org/legacy/ for PyPI, or https://test.pypi.org/legacy/ for Test PyPI)	https://upload.pypi.org/legacy/
RELEASE_BRANCH	The name of the Git branch to be released	main
CHANGELOG_FILE	The path of the changelog file	CHANGELOG.md
