Publishing Guide for @owox/backend

This guide explains the automated publishing process for the OWOX Data Marts Backend package to npm.

Overview

The @owox/backend package is published automatically through GitHub Actions. For detailed information about the release strategy, versioning, installation commands, security guidelines, and troubleshooting, see the Release & Versioning Strategy.

Automated Publishing Process

The publishing process automatically:

• Runs the prepack script (which builds the package)
• Runs the prepublishOnly script (which runs security audit, tests and linting)
• Publishes the package to the appropriate npm tag

Package Contents

The published package contains only the production-necessary files:

• dist/**/*.js - Compiled JavaScript files (no source maps or TypeScript declarations)
• dist/**/*.json - Configuration files
• dist/**/*.html - HTML files (web application)
• dist/**/*.css - Stylesheets
• dist/**/*.png, dist/**/*.ico, dist/**/*.svg - Static assets
• package.json - Package metadata and dependencies

To preview what will be published before the automated process runs:

npm pack --dry-run

This command will show you exactly which files will be included in the published package.
