Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

GitLab CI CLI for changesets — automate versioning, changelogs, and publishing via merge requests

Readme

@dvashim/changesets-gitlab

npm version npm downloads Checked with Biome

Based on project un-ts/changesets-gitlab by JounQin

GitLab CI CLI for changesets, similar to the GitHub Action. It creates a merge request with all of the package versions updated and changelogs updated, and when there are new changesets on the default branch, the MR will be updated. When you're ready, you can merge the merge request and either publish the packages to npm manually or set up the CLI to do it for you.

Usage

Inputs

Note: environment variables are case-sensitive

  • INPUT_PUBLISH - The command to use to build and publish packages
  • INPUT_VERSION - The command to update version, edit CHANGELOG, read and delete changesets. Defaults to changeset version if not provided
  • INPUT_COMMIT - The commit message to use. Default Version Packages
  • INPUT_TITLE - The merge request title. Default Version Packages

Only available in @dvashim/changesets-gitlab

  • INPUT_PUBLISHED - Command executed after publishing
  • INPUT_ONLY_CHANGESETS - Command executed when only changesets are detected
  • INPUT_REMOVE_SOURCE_BRANCH - Enables the merge request "Delete source branch" checkbox. Default false
  • INPUT_TARGET_BRANCH - The merge request target branch. Defaults to the current branch
  • INPUT_CREATE_GITLAB_RELEASES - Whether to create GitLab releases after publish. Default true
  • INPUT_LABELS - A comma-separated string of labels to add to the version package merge request

Outputs

  • PUBLISHED - A boolean value indicating whether publishing happened
  • PUBLISHED_PACKAGES - A JSON array of published packages. Format: [{"name": "@xx/xx", "version": "1.2.0"}, {"name": "@xx/xy", "version": "0.8.9"}]

Environment Variables

GLOBAL_AGENT_HTTP_PROXY  # optional, if you're using a custom GitLab service under proxy
GLOBAL_AGENT_HTTPS_PROXY # as above but for https requests
GLOBAL_AGENT_NO_PROXY    # as above but for non-proxied requests

# http_proxy, https_proxy, no_proxy environment variables are also supported

GITLAB_HOST # optional, custom GitLab host, falls back to `CI_SERVER_URL` if not provided

GITLAB_TOKEN                           # required, token with access to push, package registries, and merge request APIs. Note: CI_JOB_TOKEN does not have sufficient permissions
GITLAB_TOKEN_TYPE                      # optional, type of the provided token. Defaults to personal access token. Set to `oauth` for GitLab OAuth tokens
GITLAB_CI_USER_NAME                    # optional, username for pushing, paired with the token (if personal access token). If not set, read from the GitLab API
GITLAB_CI_USER_EMAIL                   # optional, default `gitlab[bot]@users.noreply.gitlab.com`
GITLAB_COMMENT_TYPE                    # optional, type of the comment. Defaults to `discussion`. Set to `note` for a simple comment instead of a thread
GITLAB_COMMENT_DISCUSSION_AUTO_RESOLVE # optional, auto-resolve discussion when changeset is present. If you want to always resolve, use `GITLAB_COMMENT_TYPE=note` instead. Default `true`
GITLAB_COMMENT_CUSTOM_LINKS            # optional, override the links in the bot comment. Use {{ addChangesetUrl }} placeholder for the dynamic URL to add a changeset
GITLAB_ADD_CHANGESET_MESSAGE           # optional, default commit message for adding changesets on GitLab Web UI
DEBUG_GITLAB_CREDENTIAL                # optional, whether to log the remote URL with the token visible

Example workflow

Without publishing

Create a file at .gitlab-ci.yml with the following content.

stages:
  - comment
  - release

comment:
  image: node:lts-alpine
  stage: comment
  before_script: pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
  rules:
    - if: $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "merge_request_event"
  script: pnpm changesets-gitlab comment

release:
  image: node:lts-alpine
  stage: release
  before_script: pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
  rules:
    - if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == $CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH
  script: pnpm changesets-gitlab

With publishing

You'll need an npm token that can publish the packages in the repo and doesn't have 2FA on publish enabled (2FA on auth can be enabled). Add it as a CI/CD variable with the name NPM_TOKEN.

stages:
  - comment
  - release

comment:
  image: node:lts-alpine
  stage: comment
  before_script: pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
  rules:
    - if: $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "merge_request_event"
  script: pnpm changesets-gitlab comment

release:
  image: node:lts-alpine
  stage: release
  before_script: pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
  rules:
    - if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == $CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH
  script: pnpm changesets-gitlab
  variables:
    INPUT_PUBLISH: pnpm release

By default, the CLI creates a ~/.npmrc file with the NPM_TOKEN interpolated as the auth token for registry.npmjs.org. If a .npmrc file already exists, it will not be overwritten. This is useful if you need to configure .npmrc yourself:

script: |
  cat << EOF > "$HOME/.npmrc"
    [email protected]
    //registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken=$NPM_TOKEN
  EOF

With version script

If you need to add additional logic to the version command, you can use a version script.

When the version script is present, the CLI will run that script instead of changeset version, so make sure your script calls changeset version at some point. All changes made by the script will be included in the MR.

stages:
  - comment
  - release

comment:
  image: node:lts-alpine
  stage: comment
  before_script: pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
  rules:
    - if: $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "merge_request_event"
  script: pnpm changesets-gitlab comment

release:
  image: node:lts-alpine
  stage: release
  before_script: pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
  rules:
    - if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == $CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH
  script: pnpm changesets-gitlab
  variables:
    INPUT_VERSION: pnpm version-packages

Changelog

Detailed changes for each release are documented in CHANGELOG.md.
