grunt-github-releaser2

grunt-github-releaser2

This plugin creates a release on github and uploads your corresponding assets. It depends heavily on the node.js wrapper for GitHub API.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~1.0.0

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-github-releaser2 --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-github-releaser2');

The "github_releaser2" task
