Releasing a new server version

(0) Update submodule versions

Update package.jsons of individual modules under packages as well as dependent module package.jsons.

Npm Packages are:

• @signalk/server-admin-ui-dependencies
• @signalk/server-admin-ui
• @signalk/server-api
• @signalk/streams
• @signalk/resources-provider
• signalk-server

(1) Update package.json and git tag using npm version

npm version [<newversion> | major | minor | patch | premajor | preminor | prepatch | prerelease | from-git]

Prerelease versions

• Check the status in npm
• Set package.json version & git tag using npm version as usual but specify the version, for example npm version 1.19.0-beta.2

(2) Push git tag

This will trigger GH action that

• builds and publishes all the submodules whose version does not match the latest version in npm
• builds and publishes the server
• builds docker images tagged with version and latest
• deploys the version at fly.io as https://demo.signalk.org/
