## Release Post Generator CLI tool
|
|
|
|
This is a cli tool designed to generate draft release posts for WooCommerce.
|
|
Posts generated via the tool will be draft posted to https://developer.woocommerce.com.
|
|
|
|
You can also generate an HTML representation of the post if you
|
|
don't have access to a wc.com auth token.
|
|
|
|
### Setup
|
|
|
|
1. Make sure `pnpm i` has been run in the monorepo.
|
|
2. Make sure you have added a `.env` file with the env variables set. WCCOM_TOKEN is optional if you're using `--outputOnly`, but
|
|
the `GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN` is required. If you need help generating a token see [the docs](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/creating-a-personal-access-token). To silence all CLI output, set `LOGGER_LEVEL` to `"silent"`.
|
|
3. Run the tool via the npm script, e.g. `pnpm run release "6.8.0" --outputOnly`
|
|
4. For more help on individual options, run the help `pnpm run release --help`
|
|
### Publishing Draft Posts
|
|
|
|
This tool will publish draft posts to `https://developer.woocommerce.com` for you if you omit the `--outputOnly` flag. There is some minimal first time setup for this though:
|
|
|
|
1. Create an app on Wordpress.com [here](https://developer.wordpress.com/apps/).
|
|
2. Recommended settings:
|
|
|
|
* Name can be anything
|
|
* Description can be left blank
|
|
* Website URL just put http://localhost
|
|
* Redirect URLs, by default you should add: http://localhost:3000/oauth
|
|
* JavaScript Origins put http://localhost
|
|
* Type - choose "Web"
|
|
|
|
3. Once your app is created you can go back to the
|
|
app list and click "manage app".
|
|
4. Take note of the `client secret` and the `client id`.
|
|
5. In your `.env` file add the client secret to the `WPCOM_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET` variable and the client id to the `WPCOM_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID` variable.
|
|
|
|
### Advanced
|
|
|
|
If you can't run anything on your localhost port 3000 you may want to override the redirect uri for oauth.
|
|
|
|
Steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Add your preferred redirect URI to the `WPCOM_OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI` variable in `.env`. e.g. `http://localhost:4321/oauth`
|
|
2. When creating your app on [Wordpress.com](https://developer.wordpress.com/apps/) make sure the redirect URL you set matches the one set in `.env`
