Open source libraries and frameworks share a common necessity: the need to develop multiple packages cohesively and efficiently while managing their versioning and publishing to NPM. Nx has emerged as a go-to choice for handling such open source monorepos (as we'll explore further in the next section of this blog post). Until recently, one area Nx did not address directly was versioning and release management. Traditionally, this gap has been filled with tools like release-it, changesets, or custom Node scripts, similar to our approach in the Nx repository.

Project mention: PyPI new user and new project registrations temporarily suspended | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-20> Recently I've seen someone on Reddit trying to automate the creation of PyPI projects through GitHub Actions. The person was complaining that the first deployment couldn't use an API key for that project since it didn't exist. So I'm not surprised some people are trying to do the same for malicious purposes.
Sorry for the tangent, but: you can do this now! If you use trusted publishing, you can register a "pending publisher" for a project that doesn't exist yet. When the trusted publisher (like GitHub Actions) is used, it'll create the project[1].
All of this is supported transparently by the official publishing action for GitHub Actions[2].

My problem with maintaining a changelog during development is it can serve as a source of merge conflicts. Instead, I follow Covnentional Commit style and manually write my changelog entries based on the commits. I have a tool [0] that can show me the relevant commits for a package in my repo and automates the entire release process, including doing sanity checks.
I also feel like releasing from CI is hard, especially if you have multiple packages in a repo [1], including
- You can't as easily introspect the process
- You can't as easily recover from failure
- Getting a lot of the nuance right, like handling releases concurrent to merging of PRs, is difficult
- When the workflow is an ever-present "release PR" that you merge when ready has issues with selecting which packages to release and at what version
I have been considering making a tool to generate changelogs from fragments. Been keeping notes at https://github.com/epage/epage.github.io/issues/23

Nice set of tools. I like the simplicity.
I get a DeprecationWarning when running the changelog tool due to a known issue with auto-changelog.
Made me curious... what are the latest recommendations from node folks for changelog generators?
When researching, I came across this one https://github.com/absolute-version/commit-and-tag-version
