Create a release

To create a release, you should simply push all your changes to GitHub, which will cause a GitHub Actions workflow to produce everything. Unlike the development build, this will work on all minecraft versions supported by this plug-in. Everything will be put in a releases.zip artifact for the commit, which contains the following files:

  • CustomItems.jar: the jar file that should be put in the plugins folder of the server
  • Editor.jar the 'raw' Editor: people with a Java installation can double-click it to run the Editor.
  • editor-linux.zip: Linux users without Java installation can download this, extract the contents, and double-click editor to run the Editor
  • editor-macosx.zip: Mac users without Java installation should be able to run the Editor using this file, but I'm not exactly sure how since I don't have a Mac
  • editor-windows.zip: Windows users without Java installation can download this, extract the contents, and double-click editor.exe to run the Editor

The primary advantage of the 'raw' Editor.jar over the native editors is that it is significantly smaller since it doesn't need to bundle a complete JRE.

Note: you should increment the plug-in version in shared-code/src/main/resources/plugin.yml before pushing.

Once you downloaded the releases.zip, you can create a release via the GitHub UI, and publish CustomItems.jar and Editor.jar on BukkitDev, SpigotMC, and PolyMart.
