grunt-build-release

Grunt plugin for build releases.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5

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-build-release --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-build-release');

Overview

Task for git tagging releases. Tags are calculated on the basis of date with following format.

v<ENV>-yy.MM.dd.<build-number>

<ENV> - defaults to RELEASE but can be provided from outside. <build-number> - starts with 1 and increased accordingly if there are more than one releases in the day.

build_release is not a multitask, you need to call it directly without any targets like in [Usage Examples](#Usage Examples) below

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
