Release

Release

Create a new release for moe-bangumi.

Usage

/release — auto-detect version from conventional commits. /release 1.8.0 — use the specified version directly (skip auto-detection).

Workflow

Step 1: Determine Version

If version is provided as argument:

1. Parse the version from the user's input
2. Verify it follows semver format: X.Y.Z
3. Check that the tag vX.Y.Z does not already exist:

   git tag -l "vX.Y.Z"
   

If no version is provided (auto-detect):

1. Get the current version from moe-bangumi.cabal:

   grep '^version:' moe-bangumi.cabal | awk '{print $2}'
   

2. Get commits since the last tag:

   git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --oneline
   

3. If there are no feat: or fix: commits, warn the user and stop.
4. Determine the bump type:
   • If any commit message contains BREAKING CHANGE in the body or uses !: (e.g., feat!:) → major bump (X+1.0.0)
   • If any commit starts with feat → minor bump (X.Y+1.0)
   • If only fix commits → patch bump (X.Y.Z+1)
5. Calculate the next version and present it to the user along with the commit summary.
6. Proceed with the detected version (no need to ask for confirmation).

Step 2: Pre-release Checks

Run these checks and stop if any fail:

# Ensure working tree is clean
git status --porcelain

# Build frontend
cd web && bun run build

Step 3: Generate Changelog

Review commits since the last tag to understand what changed:

git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --oneline

Present a summary of changes to the user for confirmation.

Step 4: Execute Release

Use the justfile release command which handles everything atomically:

just release X.Y.Z

This command:

1. Validates version format
2. Checks tag doesn't exist
3. Updates version in moe-bangumi.cabal
4. Generates CHANGELOG.md via git-cliff
5. Commits with message chore: release X.Y.Z
6. Creates git tag vX.Y.Z
7. Pushes to origin (main branch + tag)

Step 5: Verify

After pushing, the GitHub Action (.github/workflows/release.yml) will automatically:

• Build the Linux binary (static, via ghc-musl)
• Create a GitHub Release with the binary attached

Check the action status:

gh run list --limit 1

Report the release URL to the user.
