Announcement Bar

Development

Pre-requisites

• Run pnpm in Ghost monorepo root
• Run pnpm in this directory

Running via Ghost pnpm dev in root folder

Announcement Bar runs automatically when using Ghost's development command from the monorepo root:

pnpm dev

This starts all frontend apps (including Announcement Bar.)

Release

A patch release can be rolled out instantly in production, whereas a minor/major release requires the Ghost monorepo to be updated and released. In either case, you need sufficient permissions to release @tryghost packages on NPM.

Patch release

1. Run pnpm ship and select a patch version when prompted
2. Merge the release commit to main

Minor / major release

1. Run pnpm ship and select a minor or major version when prompted
2. Merge the release commit to main
3. Wait until a new version of Ghost is released

To use the new version of signup form in Ghost, update the version in Ghost core's default configuration (currently at core/shared/config/default.json)
