Install

npm install --save-dev @vidavidorra/semantic-release-config semantic-release

Usage

Use this configuration in your project's semantic-release configuration by specifying it as string value for the extends key of the configuration, as documented in the semantic-release Configuration documentation. In your package.json this is the release key extending the configuration, as shown in the following example.

{
  "release": {
    "extends": "@vidavidorra/semantic-release-config"
  }
}

The npm entry point publishes the package to the registry, if allowed by the private setting in the package.json, and attaches the tarball to the GitHub release. That is in addition to the config of the default entry point.

{
  "release": {
    "extends": "@vidavidorra/semantic-release-config/npm"
  }
}
