## New release flow
1. Run "Bump Version" workflow with the desired version bump and the
prerelease flag set to `true`. This will push a new version bump to the
target branch and create a new git tag.
- See below for more info on how the version bumping works.
2. A new "Build Helper" workflow run will kick off automatically for the
new tag. Once it is complete, test the new build locally by downloading
with the [download
script](https://github.com/wavetermdev/thenextwave/blob/main/scripts/artifacts/download-staged-artifact.sh).
3. Release the new build using the [publish
script](https://github.com/wavetermdev/thenextwave/blob/main/scripts/artifacts/publish-from-staging.sh).
This will trigger electron-updater to distribute the package to beta
users.
4. Run "Bump Version" again with a release bump (either `major`,
`minor`, or `patch`) and the prerelease flag set to `false`.
6. Release the new build to all channels using the [publish
script](https://github.com/wavetermdev/thenextwave/blob/main/scripts/artifacts/publish-from-staging.sh).
This will trigger electron-updater to distribute the package to all
users.
## Change Summary
Creates a new "Bump Version" workflow to manage versioning and tag
creation.
Build Helper is now automated.
### Version bumps
Updates the `version.cjs` script so that an argument can be passed to
trigger a version bump. Under the hood, this utilizes NPM's `semver`
package.
If arguments are present, the version will be bumped.
If only a single argument is given, the following are valid inputs:
- `none`: No-op.
- `patch`: Bumps the patch version.
- `minor`: Bumps the minor version.
- `major`: Bumps the major version.
- '1', 'true': Bumps the prerelease version.
If two arguments are given, the first argument must be either `none`,
`patch`, `minor`, or `major`. The second argument must be `1` or `true`
to bump the prerelease version.
### electron-builder
We are now using the release channels support in electron-builder. This
will automatically detect the channel being built based on the package
version to determine which channel update files need to be generated.
See
[here](https://www.electron.build/tutorials/release-using-channels.html)
for more information.
### Github Actions
#### Bump Version
This adds a new "Bump Version" workflow for managing versioning and
queuing new builds. When run, this workflow will bump the version,
create a new tag, and push the changes to the target branch. There is a
new dropdown when queuing the "Bump Version" workflow to select what
kind of version bump to perform. A bump must always be performed when
running a new build to ensure consistency.
I had to create a GitHub App to grant write permissions to our main
branch for the version bump commits. I've made a separate workflow file
to manage the version bump commits, which should help prevent tampering.
Thanks to using the GitHub API directly, I am able to make these commits
signed!
#### Build Helper
Build Helper is now triggered when new tags are created, rather than
being triggered automatically. This ensures we're always creating
artifacts from known checkpoints.
### Settings
Adds a new `autoupdate:channel` configuration to the settings file. If
unset, the default from the artifact will be used (should correspond to
the channel of the artifact when downloaded).
## Future Work
I want to add a release workflow that will automatically copy over the
corresponding version artifacts to the release bucket when a new GitHub
Release is created.
I also want to separate versions into separate subdirectories in the
release bucket so we can clean them up more-easily.

Hook into an existing SSH Agent.
This allows us to pull keys already authenticated by the agent and write
to the agent ourselves.

This change shaves ~20 MB off the download size by only copying over the
wavesrv binary that is relevant for whichever architecture we're
currently packaging. This is only relevant for macOS at the moment,
though it can also apply to Windows when we get multi-arch builds
working.
This required renaming our Go binaries from .amd64 to .x64 to comply
with electron-builder's naming conventions.
This adds a new job to the Build Helper pipeline for building for
Windows. This includes code signing via DigiCert. Right now, we can only
build for x64 on Windows as wavesrv fails to build for arm64 in the
default runner and the Windows ARM runner images are missing a bunch of
tooling.
This also adds new separated arm64 and x64 for macOS for those who don't
want to use the universal binary.
This also improves the general code quality of the Taskfile.yml and the
build-helper.yml files.
Adds support for building for Linux ARM targets using the new GitHub
Linux ARM64 runners. Adds a new menu item to toggle the visibility of
the menu bar on non-darwin targets,
Adds a new set of configurations for managing whether the app will
automatically check for updates. Ports over the auto update code from
the old app. In this version, the main difference is that updates can be
manually checked for using a menu bar item, even if auto updates are
disabled.
Adds electron-builder, which we will use to package and distribute our
application, same as in the existing app.
Replaces explicit port assignments with dynamic ones, which are then
stored into environment variables.
Adds a ~/.w2-dev folder for use when running a dev build.
The build-helper pipeline from the old repo is included here too, but it
is not updated yet so it will fail.
Also removes some redundant utility functions and cleans up some let vs.
const usage.
The packaging can be run using the `package:prod` and `package:dev`
tasks.

lots of changes. new wshrpc implementation. unify websocket, web,
blockcontroller, domain sockets, and terminal inputs to all use the new
rpc system.
lots of moving files around to deal with circular dependencies
use new wshrpc as a client in wsh cmd
This adds support for windows builds. With it, the app can successfully
run on windows and unix systems. Note that the terminal still only works
on unix systems at this time.
This sets us back up to use Vite via the electron-vite package. This
will let us continue to build our testing suite on Vitest and take
advantage of Vite features like Hot Module Reloading, etc.
