# @kitschpatrol/repo-config   [![NPM Package @kitschpatrol/repo-config](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/@kitschpatrol/repo-config.svg)](https://npmjs.com/package/@kitschpatrol/repo-config) [![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)   **Repository configuration and GitHub workflows for @kitschpatrol/shared-config.**  ## Overview It's a `pnpm`-flavored shared config with some essential files for a fresh repo, plus automated linting for things like copyright notice dates, all accessible via a bundled command like tool named `ksc-repo`. This includes the following: - [`.npmrc`](https://pnpm.io/npmrc) with hoisting patterns for `ksc` tool access - `.gitignore` with typical patterns - `.vscode` extension recommendations (additional settings and recommendations come from other `@kitschpatrol/shared-config` packages) - `.github` folder with workflows: - `github-release.yml` Automates turning turning vX.X.X tags on main into GitHub releases with changelogs - `set-github-metadata.yml` Populates GitHub repo metadata from package.json In order to work around some hoisting issues related to plugin resolution in the other `@kitschpatrol/shared-config` packages, it's critical that it is applied _before_ any other `@kitschpatrol/shared-config` packages are installed.  > [!IMPORTANT] > > **You can use this package on its own, but it's recommended to use [`@kitschpatrol/shared-config`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@kitschpatrol/shared-config) instead for a single-dependency and single-package approach to linting and fixing your project.** > > This package is included as a dependency in [`@kitschpatrol/shared-config`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@kitschpatrol/shared-config), which also automatically invokes the command line functionality in this package via its `ksc` command  ## Setup ### Run-once approach If you just need to set up your `.npmrc` in anticipation of installing another shared config, you can run the script via `dlx` to copy the `.npmrc` to your home folder: ```sh pnpm --package=@kitschpatrol/repo-config dlx ksc-repo init ``` ### Installation approach Optionally, you can install the package if you think you'll ever want to regenerate the repo config files. 1. Add the package: ```sh pnpm add -D @kitschpatrol/repo-config ``` 2. If / when you need to regenerate the repo config files, you can run the bundled script: ```sh pnpm exec ksc-repo init ``` ### GitHub Configuration There are two options for authenticating the release workflow action: #### GitHub Token 1. Ensure that read / write permissions are set for actions on the repository under Settings → Actions → General → Workflow permissions. #### Personal Access token If you want releases to come from your account instead of `github_actions`, then: 1. Create a [fine-grained personal access token](https://github.com/settings/tokens?type=beta) in your GitHub account with the following permissions: | Permission | Access | | -------------- | -------------- | | Administration | Read and write | | Contents | Read and write | | Metadata | Read-only | 2. Add the token as a secret to your new GitHub repository. You can do this through the GitHub website under the _Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions_ page under the key `PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN`. Alternately, you can do this locally with the [GitHub CLI](https://cli.github.com/) and a credential manager like [1Password CLI](https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli/get-started/): ```sh gh secret set PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN --app actions --body $(op read 'op://Personal/GitHub Mika/PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN') ``` ### GitHub Actions Note: Action dependencies have been forked. | Original | Fork | Modifications | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------- | | [bullrich/generate-release-changelog](https://github.com/bullrich/generate-release-changelog) | [kitschpatrol/github-action-release-changelog](https://github.com/kitschpatrol/github-action-release-changelog) | ❌ | | [softprops/action-gh-release](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release) | [kitschpatrol/github-action-release](https://github.com/kitschpatrol/github-action-release) | ❌ | | [kbrashears5/github-action-repo-sync](https://github.com/kbrashears5/github-action-repo-sync) | [kitschpatrol/github-action-repo-sync](https://github.com/kitschpatrol/github-action-repo-sync) | ✅ | ## Usage ### CLI  #### Command: `ksc-repo` Kitschpatrol's repository-related shared configuration tools.
