Overview
Spinning out of #5027: we need to be able to publish new releases of Mocha. None of us new maintainers have done that or gone through the specific release flow for Mocha before. This issue tracks us making sure we can.
Additional Info
https://github.com/mochajs/mocha/blob/53a4bafbdeb32576440b0a21787f2525585411c0/MAINTAINERS.md#mochas-release-process describes the release process.
Tried it out and I don't have publish permissions. Jotting down the steps I took here for future reference...
First, I visited https://github.com/mochajs/mocha/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Amerged+merged%3A%3E2022-12-04 to get the PRs merged since the last release. This script generates a changelog list based on those PR names:
function printPullRequestLine(element) {
// [#5069](https://github.com/mochajs/mocha/pull/5069): chore: remove unnecessary canvas dependency ([**@JoshuaKGoldberg**](https://github.com/JoshuaKGoldberg))
const href = element.getAttribute("href");
const id = href.split("/").at(-1);
const author = element.parentElement.querySelector(`[data-hovercard-type="user"]`).textContent;
return `- [#${id}](https://github.com${href}): ${element.textContent} ([**@${author}**](https://github.com/${author}))`
}
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll(`[data-hovercard-type="pull_request"]`))
.map(printPullRequestLine)
.join("\n")
I then added those in CHANGELOG.md
:
# 10.3.0-prerelease / 2024-01-18
This is a prerelease version to test our ability to release.
Other than removing or updating dependencies, it contains no intended user-facing changes.

These scripts created a preminor version and then tried to release:
npm version preminor -m "Release v%s" --preid preminor
npm publish --tag prerelease
Result: 403 permission denied. I'll need to find a previous maintainer-person to give publish permissions to my joshuakgoldberg
on npm.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/mocha/v/10.3.0-preminor.0: is released under the next
tag. You can install it with npm i mocha@next
. 🚀
Great job! 🥳 🥳 🥳
