CircleCI 2.0

Environment variables

The Authentication environment variables can be configured in CircleCi Project Settings..

Alternatively, the default NPM_TOKEN and GH_TOKEN can be easily setup with semantic-release-cli.

Multiple Node jobs configuration

.circleci/config.yml configuration for multiple Node jobs

This example is a minimal configuration for semantic-release with tests running against Node 16 and 14. See CircleCI documentation for additional configuration options.

In this example, the circleci/node orb is imported (Which makes some node operations easier), then a release job is defined which will run semantic-release.

To run our release job, we have created a workflow named test_and_release which will run two jobs, node/test, which comes from the node orb and will test our application, and our release job. Here, we are actually making use of matrix jobs so that our single node/test job will actually be executed twice, once for Node version 16, and once for version 14. Finally, we call our release job with a requires parameter so that release will only run after node/test has successfully tested against v14 and v16.

package.json configuration for multiple Node jobs

A package.json is required only for local semantic-release installation.
