v2
v2.2This example uses jimeh/release-please-manifest-action, but you can just as easily use the official google-github-actions/release-please-action instead.
First you'll want the workflow setup to run on push:
on: [push]Then you'll want a release-please job which only runs on pushes to your main
branch, and exposes relevant outputs from release please:
jobs:
# [...]
release-please:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
if: ${{ github.ref == 'refs/heads/main' }}
outputs:
release_created: ${{ steps.release-please.outputs.release_created }}
major: ${{ steps.release-please.outputs.major }}
minor: ${{ steps.release-please.outputs.minor }}
permissions:
contents: write
issues: write
pull-requests: write
steps:
- uses: jimeh/release-please-manifest-action@v3
id: release-pleaseAnd finally a job to create MAJOR and MINOR release tags, which only runs when release-please reports having created a release:
jobs:
# [...]
release-tags:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
needs: release-please
if: ${{ needs.release-please.outputs.release_created }}
permissions:
contents: write
