# Release
For each version to be released, check out the associated branch and:
Releasing is performed using Angular's unified release tooling. Each week, two releases are expected, `latest` and `next` on npm.
1. Increment the CLI version number in
[`package.json`](https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/blob/master/package.json).
1. Update `Angular` version in
[`packages/schematics/angular/utility/latest-versions.ts`](https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/blob/master/packages/schematics/angular/utility/latest-versions.ts)
to match the lastest framework patch version for the associated minor.
- This number _usually_ aligns with the CLI version **but not always**. Framework may have
required a hotfix release, which could desync the two version numbers. Check the latest version
with `yarn info @angular/core dist-tags` or look at the most recent FW release in the
[#news channel](https://angular-team.slack.com/archives/C0439GUGA).
To perform a release run the following and navigate the prompts:
As commits are cherry-picked when PRs are merged, creating the release should be a matter of creating a tag.
```bash
git add packages/schematics/angular/utility/latest-versions.ts package.json
git commit -m 'release: vXX'
git tag -a 'vXX' -m 'release: tag vXX'
```
The package versions we are about to publish are derived from `version` in the root
[`package.json`](https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/blob/master/package.json#L3). Double check that the versions are correct by running the
following command.
```bash
yarn admin packages --releaseCheck
```
Now push the commit and the tag to the upstream repository. **Make sure to use
`--follow-tags`, as tags need to be pushed immediately or CI may fail!**
```bash
git push upstream --follow-tags
```
## Authenticating
**This can ONLY be done by a Google employee.**
Log in to the Wombat publishing service using your own github and google.com
account to publish. This enforces the login is done using 2Factor auth.
Run `npm login --registry https://wombat-dressing-room.appspot.com`:
1. In the new browser tab, the registry app will ask you to connect with GitHub to create a token
1. After connecting with github, you will be redirected to create a token
1. Upon redirect, an auth token is added to your ~/.npmrc for the proxy
After closing the tab, you have successfully logged in, it is time to publish.
**NOTE: After publishing, remove the token added to your `~/.npmrc` file to logout.**
## Publishing
**This can ONLY be done by a Google employee.**
**Wait for CI to be green after pushing the release commit.**
For the first release of a major version, follow the instructions in
[Publishing a Major Version](#publishing-a-major-version) section.
For non-major release, check out the patch branch (e.g. `9.1.x`), then run:
```bash
rm -rf node_modules/ && yarn install --frozen-lockfile # Reload dependencies
yarn admin publish --tag latest
```
If also publishing a prerelease, check out `master`, then run:
```bash
rm -rf node_modules/ && yarn install --frozen-lockfile # Reload dependencies
yarn admin publish --tag next
```
If also publish an LTS branch, check out that patch branch (e.g. `8.3.x`), then
run:
**Make sure to update the NPM tag for the version you are releasing!**
```bash
rm -rf node_modules/ && yarn # Reload dependencies
yarn admin publish --tag v8-lts
```
## Release Notes
`yarn run -s admin changelog` takes `from` and `to` arguments which are any valid git
ref.
For example, running the following command will output the release notes on
stdout between v1.2.3 and 1.2.4:
```bash
yarn run -s admin changelog --from=v1.2.3 --to=v1.2.4
```
Copy the output (you can use `| pbcopy` on MacOS or `| xclip` on Linux) and
paste the release notes on [GitHub](https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/releases)
for the tag just released.
If you have an API token for GitHub you can create a draft automatically by
using the `--githubToken` flag. You just then have to confirm the draft.
> **Tags containing `next` or `rc` should be marked as pre-release.**
## Post-release
Don't forget to update the Slack [#tools](https://angular-team.slack.com/archives/C46U16D4Z) channel
topic with the next caretaker shift from the
[calendar](https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=angular.io_jf53juok1lhpm84hv6bo6fmgbc%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America%2FLos_Angeles).
## Publishing a Major Version
For the first release of a major version, say `v10.0.0`, checkout the major branch
(i.e. `10.0.x`), then run:
```bash
yarn # Reload dependencies
yarn admin publish --tag next # a major release is always tagged as next initially
```
Confirm with downstream repositories (Components, etc) that everything is ok.
Once the release is stable, wait for Framework to retag their packages, then
retag the CLI packages as `latest`.
The command below will automatically retag stable packages as well as experimental
packages.
```bash
yarn admin dist-tag --version 10.0.0 --tag latest
```sh
yarn ng-dev release publish
```
