Swiggity

A few lines of bash to automate git tags, and github releases with a change log, for a CD project. Viable only if you do not care about semantic versioning in the context of your project.

Requirements

A git repository exists in your current working directory
git is installed
GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN env var is set.
REPO_NAME env var is set, or passed in as an argument (see usage)
Currently depends on jq

Usage

`swiggity describe <org_name/repo_name>`

Outputs the changelog that would be used in the published release, without tagging commits or submitting a real release.

`swiggity latest <org_name/repo_name>`

Outputs the latest release tag

`swiggity push <org_name/repo_name>`

Creates a release tag, which is pushed
Submits a release to github, using your GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN

.swiggityrc

.swiggityrc can contain:

REMOTE The github remote, defaults to origin
REPO_NAME The <org_name/repo_name> to push releases to. If set, you do not need to provide this as an argument to describe or push

Example .swiggityrc

# If not set, you can still pass this as an argument to `swiggity push`
REPO_NAME=<org_name/repo_name>

# If not set, defaults to `origin`
REMOTE=canon
