Pull Requests

When merging Pull Requests on GitHub, use the squash and merge button, so that our timeline of master branch is linear.

Also make sure every Pull Request has a PR label, and one of the semver labels (patch, minor, or major).

These labels later help generate automated changelogs.

Development

We use Lerna for managing our monorepo. All our packages can be found in packages directory.

To start developing the packages:

Setup

Clone the repository, and run:

$ npm install
$ npm run bootstrap

Scripts

Now you can run the npm scripts:

$ npm run lint
$ npm run test
$ npm run cover

Which are shortcuts for:

$ ./node_modules/.bin/lerna run lint
$ ./node_modules/.bin/lerna run test
$ ./node_modules/.bin/lerna run cover

Runnings scripts for individual packages

To run npm scripts at individual package level:

$ ./node_modules/.bin/lerna run --scope frint-react test

Dependencies

We keep all the devDependencies at root package.json for avoiding unnecessary duplication.

To install dependencies at individual package level, just update their package.json (even if the dependency is a package from this repo itself), and run this from root:

$ npm run bootstrap

The bootstrap script takes care of installing and linking the dependencies in your packages.

Releases

To publish a new release:

$ make release

You will be prompted to select a semver (patch/minor/major), and once chosen, all your packages (that have changed) will be published to npm.

Canary releases

If you wish to release your packages as canary versions:

$ make release-canary

Doing so would only publish your packages to npm, without affecting your git repository in any way.

And the versions on npm would look like 1.0.0-alpha.12345678, where the last part is your commit hash.

Canary releases are useful if you want to publish nightly releases for example.

Changelogs

Since we use lerna for managing our monorepo, we are using lerna-changelog for generating our changelogs.

Changelog for a particular version can be generated as follows:

$ make changelog GITHUB_API_TOKEN="..." FROM_TAG="v1.0.0" TO_TAG="v2.0.0"

Doing so would output the changelog in your Terminal, which you can later add to the CHANGELOG.md file.

GitHub API Token

You can generate a token here

Since this is a public repository, you only need public_repo access for the token.

Pushing CHANGELOG.md

Once the CHANGELOG.md file is updated, it is up to you to commit and push it to GitHub.

There is a handy command available:

$ make push-changelog

We also copy the generated changelog text of a specific version to GitHub Releases section.

Packages

List packages

Show all the packages with their versions in the repository:

$ make list-packages

List updated packages

Show packages that have been updated locally, and needs publishing:

$ make list-updated
