grunt-ivantage-svn-release

Pulls it all together, bump, changelogs, tag, ... RELEASE!

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.2

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-ivantage-svn-release');

The "release" task

Overview

This task exists to pull together a bunch of other tasks which should still exist in isolation.

The Bump

With grunt-svn-bump, we pass through arguments for how to perform the bump. I.e. you might do something like:

grunt release:patch

or

grunt release:minor:prerelease

The Changelog

Using grunt-ivantage-svn-changelog we crank out a changelog for everything since the previous (semver) tagged version. These will be saved to ./changelogs/CHANGELOG-<new-version>.md by default but will honor config settings in your gruntfile for that task.

The Release Notes

Using the grunt-ivantage-trello-release-notes task we can put together release notes from user stores in a Trello board. This step will only be run if you have an ivantage_trello_release section in your grunt config.

The Tag

Finally grunt-svn-tag closes the deal by creating a new tag for us under the updated version number.
