CI/CD Setup

Setting up PyPI Publishing (One-time setup)

1. Create a PyPI API token:

   • Go to https://pypi.org/manage/account/token/
   • Create a new project-scoped token for "sparkles"
   • Copy the token (starts with pypi-)

2. Add token to GitHub Secrets:

   • Go to your GitHub repository → Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions
   • Click "New repository secret"
   • Name: PYPI_API_TOKEN
   • Value: Paste your PyPI token
   • Click "Add secret"

How to Release a New Version (Git-Ops Style)

Just push a tag with the bump type you want:

# For a patch release (0.2.0 → 0.2.1)
git tag release-patch
git push origin release-patch

# For a minor release (0.2.0 → 0.3.0)
git tag release-minor
git push origin release-minor

# For a major release (0.2.0 → 1.0.0)
git tag release-major
git push origin release-major

What happens automatically:

1. GitHub Actions detects the release-* tag
2. Bumps the version in code and commits it
3. Creates a proper version tag (e.g., v0.2.1)
4. Builds the package
5. Creates a GitHub Release with release notes
6. Publishes to PyPI

That's it! No manual builds, version edits, or uploads needed.
