nx-release-publish executor

The nx-release-publish executor publishes a Go module to the Go proxy (proxy.golang.org) by running GOPROXY=proxy.golang.org go list -m <module>@<version>. The version is resolved from the latest git tag matching the release tag pattern configured in nx.json.

The manifest key in executors.json is release-publish. The inferred target name is nx-release-publish.

Usage

nx nx-release-publish my-go-lib

Or through the Nx release pipeline:

nx release --publish

Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
moduleRoot	string	project root	Path to the directory containing the go.mod file.
dryRun	boolean	false	When true, print the publish command without executing it.

The NX_DRY_RUN environment variable also triggers a dry run when set to true.

Inferred target

Inferred for all Go projects (applications and libraries):

{
  "executor": "@naxodev/gonx:release-publish",
  "options": {
    "moduleRoot": "{projectRoot}"
  },
  "configurations": {
    "development": {
      "dryRun": true
    }
  }
}

The development configuration sets dryRun: true, allowing test runs via --configuration=development.

The default release tag pattern is v{version}. Override it in nx.json under release.releaseTag.pattern, which supports {projectName} and {version} placeholders.
