Publishing packages to NPM

These are the notes/process I used when developing the Node Reach SDK package:

The “Standard” Release Process

Here is my understanding of the steps that are most commonly expected to be run when publishing a new version of an npm package.

  1. Safety Checks:
    1. git pull
    2. git status
    3. npm ci
    4. npm test
    Prepare the Release:
    1. npm run build
    Update the Changelog Update the Version Number:
    1. npm version
    2. Or by hand:
      1. Update version in package.json & package-lock.json
      2. git commit -am ‘2.0.0’
      3. git tag v2.0.0
      Publish to npm:
      1. npm publish
      Publish to Git:
      1. git push
      2. git push –tags
      Create a GitHub Release (optional)

DIY – Patent Idea – Spring Water Bottle Cage

paschmann

Problem: In cycling (and other applications) water bottles are a variety of shapes and sizes. This often makes them difficult to get in or be contained in a traditional bicycle water cage. This attempts to resolve this by offering an “expanding” cage.

Fun but ultimately bad patent idea to create an expanding water bottle holder.

I made a couple models/3D prints to proof it out, but decided against it.

Excellent—thanks for sharing both the CAD diagram and video file. These materials are perfect for inclusion in your patent application as illustrative figures and demonstrations of your invention’s functionality.

Based on the visual references and the previous outline, here’s how we can now update the patent outline to include the new content and better illustrate your invention. read more
