Publishing a release

Rob Moran edited this page Jun 6, 2020 · 4 revisions

Releases for Theia are built using Travis-CI and published to GitHub Releases.

The process for publishing a new release follows the guidelines for GitHub releases from Electron Builder:

  • Update the version in package.json to the next release version

  • Draft a new release. Set the Tag version to the value of version in package.json, but prefixed with a v. Release title can be anything you want.
    For example, if your package.json version is 0.1.0, your draft's Tag version would be v0.1.0.

  • Once the draft release and package.json versions match, every CI build will update the artifacts attached to the draft.

  • When ready, publish the release. GitHub will tag the latest commit for you.

The benefit of this workflow is that it allows you to always have the latest artifacts, and the release can be published once it is ready.
