Publishing to NPM

This document outlines the steps to publish a new version of the package to NPM.

Prerequisites

• Make sure you have npm access and are logged in (npm login)
• Ensure all changes are tested and working
• Make sure your working directory is clean

Publishing Steps

1. Stage all changes:

   git add .

2. Commit your changes:

   git commit -m "your commit message"

3. Update the version number. Choose one of:

   npm version patch  # for bug fixes (0.0.x)
   npm version minor  # for new features (0.x.0)
   npm version major  # for breaking changes (x.0.0)

4. Build the package:

   npm run build

5. Publish to NPM:

   npm publish

Version Guidelines

• patch (0.0.x) - Bug fixes and minor changes
• minor (0.x.0) - New features (non-breaking)
• major (x.0.0) - Breaking changes

Notes

• The npm version command will automatically create a git tag
• Make sure your git working directory is clean before publishing
• Consider adding a changelog entry for significant changes
