Version Management (pki-manager specific)

IMPORTANT: When creating a new release for this project, you MUST bump the version in ALL THREE package.json files:

• package.json (root - authoritative source)
• frontend/package.json
• backend/package.json

Version Bump Types (Semantic Versioning)

Pre-Release Workflow

Before creating a release, you MUST:

1. Check current version in root package.json
2. Determine bump type based on changes since last release
3. Update ALL package.json files with the new version
4. Commit version changes with message: chore: bump version to vX.Y.Z
5. Create git tag: git tag vX.Y.Z
6. Push tag: git push origin vX.Y.Z
7. Create GitHub release: gh release create vX.Y.Z --generate-notes

Complete Release Workflow

# 1. Determine current version
cat package.json | grep '"version"'
# Output: "version": "1.2.0"

# 2. Update versions in all package.json files
# For patch bump (1.2.0 → 1.2.1):
NEW_VERSION="1.2.1"

# Edit package.json (root)
# Edit frontend/package.json
# Edit backend/package.json
# All three must have the same version!

# 3. Commit version bump
git add package.json frontend/package.json backend/package.json
git commit -m "chore: bump version to v${NEW_VERSION}"

# 4. Create and push tag
git tag "v${NEW_VERSION}"
git push origin main
git push origin "v${NEW_VERSION}"

# 5. Create GitHub release with auto-generated notes
gh release create "v${NEW_VERSION}" --generate-notes

# Or with custom notes
gh release create "v${NEW_VERSION}" --notes "## What's Changed
- Feature A
- Bug fix B
- Improvement C"

Version Synchronization Rules

CRITICAL: All three package.json files MUST have matching versions:

Checking Version Consistency

# Quick check all versions
echo "Root: $(cat package.json | grep '"version"' | head -1)"
echo "Frontend: $(cat frontend/package.json | grep '"version"' | head -1)"
echo "Backend: $(cat backend/package.json | grep '"version"' | head -1)"

Release Checklist

Before releasing, verify:

• All tests pass (pnpm test)
• Build succeeds (pnpm build)
• All three package.json versions match
• Changes are committed to main branch
• No uncommitted changes (git status)
• Previous release tag exists for comparison

2. Interactive prompts: Most commands work interactively if you omit parameters
3. Filters: Use --author, --label, --state to filter lists
4. JSON output: Add --json flag for scriptable output
5. Template repos: Use gh repo create --template for templates
6. Auto-merge: Enable with gh pr merge --auto
