Provider Release

Provider Release

Automate provider version bumping and release PR creation for the mql project.

Core Command

go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go <command> <providers> [flags]

Workflow

1. Check which providers have changes

# All providers
go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go check providers/*/

# Specific provider(s)
go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go check providers/aws/ providers/gcp/

Reports the number of changes since each provider's last version bump.

2. Update versions

# All changed providers (auto patch bump + commit)
go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go update providers/*/ --increment=patch --commit

# Specific provider(s)
go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go update providers/aws/ --increment=patch --commit

# Multiple specific providers
go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go update providers/aws/ providers/azure/ --increment=patch --commit

Flags:

• --increment=patch|minor|major - Version bump level (skip interactive prompt)
• --commit - Git commit the version change automatically
• --fast - Skip counting individual changes
• --output=DIR - Write PR title.txt and body.md to DIR

3. Push and create PR

After the utility commits, push the branch and create a PR.

Notes

• The core provider tracks mql's version -- never release it independently.
• The utility generates a changelog from commit messages since the last version bump.
• With --commit, commits are authored as "Mondoo hello@mondoo.com".
• The CI workflow at .github/workflows/release-providers.yml can also trigger releases via workflow dispatch.

Typical Flow

1. Run check to see what changed
2. Confirm with the user which providers to release
3. Run update with --increment=patch --commit
4. Push the branch and create a PR
