# Automated Monthly Release Versioning Workflow | |
# ============================================ | |
# Purpose: | |
# - Automatically create consistent monthly version tags | |
# - Implement a calendar-based versioning strategy | |
# - Facilitate easy tracking of monthly releases | |
# Versioning Strategy: | |
# - Tag format: YYYY.MM.0 (e.g., 2024.01.0 for January 2024) | |
# - First digit: Full year | |
# - Second digit: Month (01-12) | |
# - Third digit: Patch version (starts at 0, allows for potential updates) | |
# Key Features: | |
# - Runs automatically on the first day of each month at 3:30 AM UTC | |
# - Can be manually triggered via workflow_dispatch | |
# - Uses GitHub Actions to generate tags programmatically | |
# - Provides a predictable and systematic versioning approach | |
# Prerequisites: | |
# - Repository configured with GitHub Actions | |
# - Permissions to create tags | |
# - Access to actions/checkout and tag creation actions | |
# Workflow Triggers: | |
# - Scheduled monthly run | |
# - Manual workflow dispatch | |
# - Callable from other workflows | |
# Actions Used: | |
# 1. actions/checkout@v4 - Checks out repository code | |
# 2. josStorer/get-current-time - Retrieves current timestamp | |
# 3. rickstaa/action-create-tag - Creates Git tags | |
# Example Generated Tags: | |
# - 2024.01.0 (January 2024 initial release) | |
# - 2024.02.0 (February 2024 initial release) | |
# - 2024.02.1 (Potential patch for February 2024) | |
