meteor publish-release

meteor publish-release

Publishes a release of Meteor. Takes in a JSON configuration file.

Meteor releases are divided into tracks. While only MDG members can publish to the default Meteor track, anyone can create a track of their own and publish to it. Running meteor update without specifying the --release option will not cause the user to switch tracks.

To publish to a release track for the first time, use the --create-track flag.

The JSON configuration file must contain the name of the release track (track), the release version (version), various metadata, the packages specified by the release as mapped to versions (packages), and the package & version of the Meteor command-line tool (tool). Note that this means that forks of the meteor tool can be published as packages and people can use them by switching to a corresponding release. For more information, run meteor help publish-release.
