Notemd Release Workflow (Maintainers)
Language: English | 简体中文
This document is for maintainers and contributors, not end users.
1. Regression Baseline
Capture a before-change baseline:
npm run regression:language-baseline
After implementation, compare with the latest baseline:
npm run regression:language-compare
2. Verification Gate Before Release
Run:
npm run chronicle:sync-repo-saga
npm run chronicle:update
npm run build
npm test -- --runInBand
npm run audit:i18n-ui
npm run audit:render-host
obsidian help
obsidian-cli help
git diff --check
Run npm run chronicle:sync-repo-saga and npm run chronicle:update serially. They share .cache/repo-saga-* state and now enforce .cache/.repo-saga-execution.lock; if a stale lock remains behind, verify that no repo-saga sync/update process is still running before removing it.
If obsidian-cli is unavailable in the local environment, record it in release notes or release-handoff evidence.
If the change affects diagram semantics, also run the maintainer-local semantic layer in docs/maintainer/diagram-semantic-verification.md.
Recommended helper:
npm run verify:diagram-semantics -- --vault "<vault-name>" --commit "<sha>" --version "<plugin-version>" --output ~/tmp/notemd-diagram-check.md
The helper reads packaging entry/output facts from esbuild.config.mjs, latent runtime-module specifier facts from src/rendering/preview/renderHostRuntimeClient.ts, render-host audit facts from scripts/audit-render-host-bundle.js, runtime-consumption facts from src/main.ts, src/ui/DiagramPreviewModal.ts, src/rendering/webview/page.ts, and src/rendering/webview/renderFrame.ts, release packaging contract facts from scripts/release/publish-github-release.js, release trigger/tag-guard facts from .github/workflows/release.yml, and operation-promotion boundary facts from src/operations/registry.ts; keep those files as packaging/contract truth sources when evaluating renderer-boundary claims.
Treat the helper's packaging-boundary, render-host audit, render-host runtime-consumption, implementation-readiness, packaging-contract, contract-promotion-boundary, and Stage-C gate sections as required truth maintenance for renderer-affecting changes: npm run audit:render-host does not prove true heavy-runtime isolation; it only proves the current self-contained main.js + inline srcdoc host contract and rejects stray render-host.mjs assets/references on current main.
On the current single-entry lane, that packaging-boundary truth also requires the latent runtime helper to stay fail-closed: no default standalone render-host.mjs module specifier may be synthesized unless a dedicated runtime asset is explicitly configured and shipped in the same batch.
The packaging-contract section now also records numeric tag policy, create/upload mode behavior, and tag-only trigger guardrails; treat those as part of the same release-truth contract rather than informal release habits.
3. Version Synchronization
Before publishing, ensure version references are aligned:
package.jsonmanifest.jsonversions.jsonREADME.mdREADME_zh.mdchange.md
Release tags must use numeric x.x.x format. Do not add a v prefix: Obsidian community plugin publishing expects numeric tags only.
4. Release Notes Contract
Release notes now live in two complete checked-in files:
- English:
docs/releases/<tag>.md - Simplified Chinese:
docs/releases/<tag>.zh-CN.md
Each file must be independently readable. The GitHub release helper composes those two files into one bilingual release body at publish time.
5. GitHub Release Requirements
Required release assets:
main.jsmanifest.jsonstyles.cssREADME.md
6. Publish Command
npm run release:github -- <tag>
The helper now enforces the required packaged assets plus both checked-in release-note files before invoking GitHub:
- If the release does not exist yet, it combines
docs/releases/<tag>.mdanddocs/releases/<tag>.zh-CN.md, then runsgh release create ... --verify-tag. - If the release already exists, it first rewrites the existing release body/title from those checked-in bilingual notes and then runs
gh release upload ... --clobber. - If the tag is not numeric
x.x.x, it fails immediately.
That second path is the repair path for cases where a release body drifted from checked-in notes or plugin assets were not uploaded.
7. CI Automation
The repository also ships .github/workflows/release.yml:
- Push a git tag to publish the release automatically.
- Use
workflow_dispatchwith a numericx.x.xtaginput to repair an existing release from CI. - The same workflow now regenerates the quarterly development chronicle after publish, refreshes every root
README*.mdchronicle block, rewrites each localizeddocs/repo-saga/notemd-development-history.<locale>.svg, refreshes the English aliasdocs/repo-saga/notemd-development-history.svg, and pushes that documentation-only update back tomain. npm run chronicle:sync-repo-sagaassembles.cache/repo-saga-upstreamfrom the two upstreamrepo-sagabranches we currently depend on:feat/timeline-granularityfor quarter slicing andfeat-locale-i18nfor locale expansion.- This workflow does not run automatically for ordinary
mainpushes or PRs; pre-merge verification is still a local maintainer responsibility. maincurrently has no branch protection and no ordinary push/PR workflow. If the commit-status API showspendingwith zero statuses onmain, treat GitHub Actions runs pluscheck-suites/check-runsas the real source of truth; release-tag runs may still attach successful checks to the same commit.- The workflow now pins
actions/checkout@v6andactions/setup-node@v6so the release path does not keep the older Node 20 JavaScript-action runtime warning alive. - The publish job runs
npm ci,npm run build,npm test -- --runInBand,npm run audit:i18n-ui,npm run audit:render-host,git diff --check, and finallynpm run release:github -- "$TAG_NAME". - The follow-up chronicle job runs
node scripts/repo-saga/update-quarterly-saga.mjs --tag "$TAG_NAME"onmain, then commits the refreshedREADME*.mdblocks plus localized quarterly SVG set if anything changed. - The chronicle refresh script itself now rebuilds its local
repo-sagacache by copying the granularity branch as the base and overlaying the locale/i18n branch files before invoking therepo-sagaCLI. - The chronicle refresh script now also enforces a single execution lock at
.cache/.repo-saga-execution.lock, so overlapping local/CI runs fail fast instead of corrupting shared cache state. - That same script now hardens package-manager fallback as well: if the environment only has
corepackorbun x pnpm, it creates an inheritable localpnpmshim so the upstreamrepo-sagaworkspace build can still execute nestedpnpmscript calls inside CI. - The workflow validates
^[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+$before checkout and publish, sov1.8.2-style tags are rejected.
The workflow intentionally reuses the checked-in release helper instead of duplicating asset lists or release-note logic inside YAML.
8. Diagram Semantic Layer
Renderer-affecting changes need one more layer beyond repo CI:
- use
docs/maintainer/diagram-semantic-verification.md - generate a reusable checklist with
npm run verify:diagram-semantics -- --vault "<vault-name>" --commit "<sha>" --version "<plugin-version>" --output ~/tmp/notemd-diagram-check.mdwhen you need a durable handoff artifact - verify affected Mermaid / JSON Canvas / Vega-Lite flows in a real local vault
- record evidence in release handoff or PR notes
Automated checks alone are not sufficient when the change touches diagram generation or preview behavior.
