Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Clone of zeit/release with some modifications

Build Status XO code style Slack Channel

When run, this command line interface automatically generates a new GitHub Release and populates it with the changes (commits) made since the last release.

Usage

Install the package from npm (you'll need the latest version of Node.js - why?):

npm install -g release

Run this command inside your project's directory:

release

You can find an example of how to prepare a release in your project here.

Options

The following command will show you a list of all available options:

release help

Change Types

Each commit can be assigned a certain type of change. Here's the full list.

Why?

As we at ZEIT moved all of our GitHub repositories from keeping a HISTORY.md file to using GitHub Releases, we needed a way to automatically generate these releases from our own devices, rather than always having to open a page in the browser and manually add the notes for each change.

Contributing

You can find the authentication flow here.

  1. Fork this repository to your own GitHub account and then clone it to your local device
  2. Uninstall the package if it's already installed: npm uninstall -g release
  3. Link the package to the global module directory: npm link
  4. You can now use release on the command line!

As always, you can use npm test to run the tests and see if your changes have broken anything.

Credits

Thanks a lot to Daniel Chatfield for donating the "release" name on npm and my lovely team for telling me about their needs and how I can make this package as efficient as possible.
