# Creating a Release
|
|
|
|
[crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/ratatui) releases are automated via [GitHub
|
|
actions](.github/workflows/cd.yml) and triggered by pushing a tag.
|
|
|
|
1. Record a new demo gif if necessary. The preferred tool for this is
|
|
[vhs](https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs) (installation instructions in README).
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
cargo build --example demo2
|
|
vhs examples/demo2.tape
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Switch branches to the images branch and copy demo2.gif to examples/, commit, and push.
|
|
1. Grab the permalink from <https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui/blob/images/examples/demo2.gif> and
|
|
append `?raw=true` to redirect to the actual image url. Then update the link in the main README.
|
|
Avoid adding the gif to the git repo as binary files tend to bloat repositories.
|
|
|
|
1. Bump the version in [Cargo.toml](Cargo.toml).
|
|
1. Ensure [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) is updated. [git-cliff](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff)
|
|
can be used for generating the entries.
|
|
1. Ensure that any breaking changes are documented in [BREAKING-CHANGES.md](./BREAKING-CHANGES.md)
|
|
1. Commit and push the changes.
|
|
1. Create a new tag: `git tag -a v[X.Y.Z]`
|
|
1. Push the tag: `git push --tags`
|
|
1. Wait for [Continuous Deployment](https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui/actions) workflow to
|
|
finish.
|

## Alpha Releases
|
|
|
|
Alpha releases are automatically released every Saturday via [cd.yml](./.github/workflows/cd.yml)
|
|
and can be manually be created when necessary by triggering the [Continuous
|
|
Deployment](https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui/actions/workflows/cd.yml) workflow.
|
|
|
|
We automatically release an alpha release with a patch level bump + alpha.num weekly (and when we
|
|
need to manually). E.g. the last release was 0.22.0, and the most recent alpha release is
|
|
0.22.1-alpha.1.
|
|
|
|
These releases will have whatever happened to be in main at the time of release, so they're useful
|
|
for apps that need to get releases from crates.io, but may contain more bugs and be generally less
|
|
tested than normal releases.
|

See [#147](https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui/issues/147) and
|
|
[#359](https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui/pull/359) for more info on the alpha release process.
