What it Does

semantic-sf-cli performs the following steps:

1. Asks for the information it needs. You will need to provide it with:
   • Whether your GitHub repository is public or private
   • Your GitHub username
   • Your GitHub password (unless passwords were previously saved to keychain)
   • Your Script Fodder API Key
2. Save your passwords to your local OS's keychain using keytar for future use (unless --no-keychain was specified)
3. Create GitHub Personal Token
   • Logs into GitHub using the username and password provided
   • Creates a GitHub Personal Access Token and saves it for future use
4. Update your package.json
   • Remove version field (you don't need it anymore -- semantic-release will set the version for you automatically)
   • Add a semantic-release script: "semantic-release": "semantic-release pre && npm publish && semantic-release post"
   • Add semantic-release as a devDependency
   • Add or overwrite the repository field
5. Login to Travis CI to configure the package
   • Enable builds of your repo
   • Add GH_TOKEN and NPM_TOKEN environment variables in the settings

Other CI Servers

By default, semantic-release-cli supports the popular Travis CI server. If you select Other as your server during configuration, semantic-release-cli will print out the environment variables you need to set on your CI server. You will be responsible for adding these environment variables as well as configuring your CI server to run npm run semantic-release after all the builds pass.

Note that your CI server will also need to set the environment variable CI=true so that semantic-release will not perform a dry run. (Most CI services do this by default.) See the semantic-release documentation for more details.
