jsii-release

This library includes a set of programs that can be used to release multiple modules into various package managers.

These scripts where extracted from aws-delivlib, which is used to release jsii and the AWS CDK.

Usage

This is an npm module. You can install it using yarn add jsii-release or npm install jsii-release. In most cases it will be installed as a devDependency in your package.json.

This tool expects to find a distribution directory (default name is dist) which contains "ready-to-publish" artifacts for each package manager. This structure is compatible with jsii-pacmak:

• dist/js/*.tgz - npm tarballs
• dist/python/*.whl - Python wheels
• dist/nuget/*.nupkg - Nuget packages
• dist/java/** - Maven artifacts in local repository structure

Each publisher needs a set of environment variables with credentials as described below (NPM_TOKEN, TWINE_PASSWORD etc).

Then:

$ jsii-release

You can customize the distribution directory through jsii-release DIR (the default is dist)

This command will discover all the artifacts based on the above structure and will publish them to their respective package manager.

You can also execute individual publishers:

• jsii-release-maven
• jsii-release-nuget
• jsii-release-npm
• jsii-release-pypi

npm

Publishes all *.tgz files from DIR to npmjs or GitHub Packages.

Usage:

npx jsii-release-npm [DIR]

DIR is a directory with npm tarballs (*.tgz). Default is dist/js.

Options (environment variables):

Option	Required	Description
NPM_TOKEN	Required	Registry authentication token (either npm.js publishing token or a GitHub personal access token)
NPM_REGISTRY	Optional	The registry URL (defaults to "registry.npmjs.org"). Use "npm.pkg.github.com" to publish to GitHub Packages
NPM_DIST_TAG	Optional	Registers the published package with the given dist-tag (e.g. next, default is latest)

Maven

Publishes all Maven modules in the DIR to Maven Central.

Usage:

npx jsii-release-maven [DIR]

DIR is a directory with a local maven layout. Default is dist/java.

Options (environment variables):

Option	Required	Description
MAVEN_USERNAME and MAVEN_PASSWORD	Yes	Username and password for Maven Central obtained from Sonatype. You will need to Create JIRA account and then request a new project
MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY or MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE and MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSPHRASE	Yes	GPG private key or file that includes it. This is used to sign your Maven packages. See instructions below
MAVEN_STAGING_PROFILE_ID	Yes	Maven Central (sonatype) staging profile ID (e.g. 68a05363083174). Staging profile ID can be found in the URL of the "Releases" staging profile under "Staging Profiles" in https://oss.sonatype.org (e.g. https://oss.sonatype.org/#stagingProfiles;11a33451234521
MAVEN_DRYRUN	No	Set to "true" for a dry run

How to create a GPG key?

Install GnuPG.

Generate your key (use RSA, 4096, passphrase):

$ gpg --gen-key

Your selected passphrase goes to MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSPHRASE.

Export and publish the public key:

$ gpg -a --export > public.pem

Go to https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/ and submit the public key

Export and the private key:

$ gpg -a --export-secret-keys <fingerprint> > private.pem

Now, either set MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE to point to private.pem or export the private key to a single line where newlines are encoded as \n and then assign it to MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY:

$ echo $(cat -e private.pem) | sed 's/\$ /\\n/g' | sed 's/\$$//'

NuGet

Publishes all *.nupkg to the NuGet Gallery.

Usage:

npx jsii-release-nuget [DIR]

DIR is a directory with Nuget packages (*.nupkg). Default is dist/dotnet.

Options (environment variables):

Option	Required	Description
NUGET_API_KEY	Required	NuGet API Key with "Push" permissions

PyPI

Publishes all *.whl files to PyPI.

Usage:

npx jsii-release-pypi [DIR]

DIR is a directory with Python wheels (*.whl). Default is dist/python.

Options (environment variables):

Option	Required	Description
TWINE_USERNAME	Required	PyPI username (register)
TWINE_PASSWORD	Required	PyPI password
TWINE_REPOSITORY_URL	Optional	The registry URL (defaults to Twine default)

Roadmap

• Support GitHub Packages for Maven & NuGet (npm is already supported)
