Can we release any single package?

[ajainvivek]

Is there any option to release just one package rather than release all at once?

Do you mean something that would release only packages that are specifically changed since the last release? Or perhaps that you would want to explicitly request specific packages to be released?

I think we can add support for either (or both) of those things, I'd just like to flesh out what features we want to add.

[ajainvivek]

That is right. Only release changed packages from the previous release.

Also, would nice to have release any single package on demand.

In my current project we use yarn workspace in combination with lerna. We have custom script which only releases lerna changed packages.

Ya, I've seen similar configs before. I think that is something we can definitely do, but I think it would require that we figure out what changed. Do you happen to know how lerna figures that out? I could imagine a few different git commands that we could use 🤔. Then we'd have a config setting (e.g. detectChangesCommand) so folks could override / customize.

how lerna figures that out?

Looks like basically git diff --name-only ...

i have the same question. is there any solution?

We don't currently have support for releasing a single package, as this plugin is design to release all workspace packages at once, synchronizing their version numbers. If you need to independently release packages, it's best to install release-it within each of those. It's more cumbersome, but it does work. I did this exact thing in https://github.com/microsoft/sarif-js-sdk.

It's more cumbersome。in this reop，When I execute in the root directory wiht 「run npx release-it --no-git.push」，it just check changes the root package.json version

I believe there's a missing step in the RELEASE.md. You need to cd into the respective package in order to release it. I'll ensure that's updated.
