README

pleb

CLI to automate several npm package tasks.

Features

Works locally and in CI. npx pleb [command] in mind.
Supports both single package and yarn workspace setups.
Skips already-published versions and private packages when publishing.
Loads and uses user's npm authentication.

Commands

`publish`

Publish unpublished packages.

pleb assumes packages have already been built when publishing. If on-demand building is required, a "prepack" script can be used to build right before packing the package: "prepack": "npm run build"

`upgrade`

Upgrade dependencies and devDependencies of all packages. Checks the registry for latest version of each package, and updates package.json files with the new request.

Integration

GitHub Actions

Inject NPM_TOKEN as a secret in GitHub's repository settings.

Save the following as npm.yml:

name: npm
on:
  push:
    branches: [master]
jobs:
  npm:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Use Node.js 16
        uses: actions/setup-node@v2
        with:
          node-version: 16
          registry-url: 'https://registry.npmjs.org/'
      - run: npm ci
      - run: npx pleb publish
        env:
          NODE_AUTH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.NPM_TOKEN }}

Travis CI

Inject NPM_TOKEN as a secure environment variable in Travis repository settings.

Add following to the end of .travis.yml:

before_deploy:
  - echo "//registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken=\${NPM_TOKEN}" > ~/.npmrc

deploy:
  skip_cleanup: true
  provider: script
  script: npx pleb publish
  on:
    branch: master
    node_js: 16
    condition: $TRAVIS_OS_NAME = linux
