A Github action that will automatically publish a package to the registry if the version in the package.json is not already published. It can optionally push a tag to git, marking the commit the publish used.

See action.yml for more details.

For a working example on how to set this action up, see my @luvies/evaluator package workflow.

This action will need a number of environment variables depending on what is being done:

• NODE_AUTH_TOKEN
  • Always needed
  • Used to authenticate the publish to the registry
    • Make sure 2fa is disabled for publishes to the registry
• GITHUB_TOKEN
  • Only needed if git tagging is enabled
  • Can be given using the following
    • GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
