This is a repo to test how to publish an NPM package with an optional tag when a GitHub release is created.
It uses the package.json version:
| package.json version | npm version | npm tag | npm install cmd |
|---|---|---|---|
"1.0.0" |
1.0.0 | latest | npm i name |
"2.0.0-beta" |
2.0.0-beta | beta | npm i name@2.0.0-beta |
"2.0.0-beta1" |
2.0.0-beta1 | beta | npm i name@2.0.0-beta1 |
It should work with any tag, like alpha, beta, rc.
