-
Copy the template file moodle-release.yml into the
.github/workflows/moodle-release.yml
location within your plugin repository. -
Edit the file and set the
PLUGIN
environment variable to the full component name (aka frankenstyle) of your plugin. Example:env: PLUGIN: mod_subcourse
There should be no need to edit any other line as long as you are happy with the default behaviour of the workflow. Please refer to the GitHub Actions documentation for details.
-
Log in to the Moodle Plugins directory at https://moodle.org/plugins/. Locate the Navigation block > Plugins > API access. Use that page to generate your personal token for the
plugins_maintenance
service. -
Go back to your plugin repository at Github. Locate your plugin's Settings > Secrets section. Use the 'New repository secret' button to define a new repository secret to hold your access token. Use name
MOODLE_ORG_TOKEN
and set the value to the one you generated in previous step. -
That's it! Now when you tag the repository with a tag that matches the configured condition, the tagged version will be released in the plugins directory.
-
Use settings
$plugin->requires
,$plugin->supported
and$plugin->incompatible
in your plugin's version.php. They are used to automatically populate the list of supported Moodle versions. By default, all Moodle versions starting from the one described by$plugin->requires
will be marked as supported. -
Keep the
CHANGES.md
file in the root of your repository. It will be automatically imported as release notes for the new version. Please see Moodle dev docs for all supported names and formats. -
If your release tags do not start with
v
character (such asv9.0.1
) and you want to trigger the workflow for any tag, change the condition in the YAML file as:on: push: tags: - '*'
