Common tasks

This section contains some pointer about how to do some common tasks.

Build

• npm install
• ./scripts/build.sh

Change version number

Version number must be updated in:

• /package.json
  • version field
• /package-lock.json
  • version field (should probably be updated by running npm install)

/scripts/check_same_version_light.sh checks that all version numbers are identical.

Version number in module.json is set to {{version}} which is a special string that the release workflow automatically replace when a release is made. The same is true for {{shortname}}

Make a release

npm run packzip will put all the files you need for a release in "/releases/vx.y.z". If will run a lot of checks so know that you need to:

• have all version number be identical everywhere
• have no uncommited work
• have the last commit tagged with the current version number ("v1.2.3" if package.json says version: "1.2.3" for example)
