darq-publisher

Automates the publication of truffle nightly & experimental builds to NPM. The default builds are develop and next (tagged as @latest and @next respectively.) You can also specify arbitrary builds/tags at the command line. The tool installs, checks out, and symlinks truffle at a branch, then builds and publishes it to the tag.

Install

npm install -g darq-publisher

# Publish `darq-truffle@latest` and `darq-truffle@next`
$ darq-publisher --default

# Publish branch `ghosts` as `darq-truffle@casper`

# Publish branch `witches` using base-branch `next` as `darq-truffle@wendy`
$ darq-publisher --root next --branch witches --tag wendy

How to increment

When there are no real releases, do nothing. darq-truffle auto-increments a pre-release.

When there is a real release, semver will look like this:

4.1.5           # Real truffle
4.1.5-latest.2  # darq truffle

Increment a step up by running twice as below:

darq-publisher --branch develop --tag latest --step patch # Increments darq-truffle to 4.1.6

darq-publisher --branch develop --tag latest              # Increments darq-truffle to 4.1.6-latest.0
