semantic-release-vsce

Semantic release plugin for Visual Stuio Code extensions

Add config to package.json

Use semantic-release-vsce as part of verifyConditions and publish. For getLastRelease you should use @semantic-release/git (instead of the default npm implementation).

{
  "scripts": {
    "semantic-release": "semantic-release"
  },
  "release": {
    "verifyConditions": ["semantic-release-vsce", "@semantic-release/github"],
    "getLastRelease": "@semantic-release/git",
    "publish": [
      {
        "path": "semantic-release-vsce",
        "packageVsix": "your-extension.vsix"
      },
      {
        "path": "@semantic-release/github",
        "assets": "your-extension.vsix"
      }
    ]
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@semantic-release/git": "^2.0.0",
    "semantic-release": "^12.0.0",
    "semantic-release-vsce": "^2.0.0",
  }
}

If packageVsix is set, will also generate a .vsix file at the set file path after publishing. It is recommended to upload this to your GitHub release page so your users can easily rollback to an earlier version if a version ever introduces a bad bug.
