provider-release

name	provider-release
description	Release mql providers by bumping their versions. Use when the user wants to release providers, bump provider versions, check which providers have changes, or prepare a provider release PR. Triggers on requests like "release providers", "bump provider versions", "check provider changes", "release aws provider", or "prepare provider release".

Provider Release

Automate provider version bumping and release PR creation for the mql project.

Core Command

go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go <command> <providers> [flags]

Workflow

1. Check which providers have changes

# All providers
go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go check providers/*/

# Specific provider(s)
go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go check providers/aws/ providers/gcp/

Reports the number of changes since each provider's last version bump.

2. Update versions

# All changed providers (auto patch bump + commit)
go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go update providers/*/ --increment=patch --commit

# Specific provider(s)
go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go update providers/aws/ --increment=patch --commit

# Multiple specific providers
go run providers-sdk/v1/util/version/version.go update providers/aws/ providers/azure/ --increment=patch --commit

Flags:

• --increment=patch|minor|major - Version bump level (skip interactive prompt)
• --commit - Git commit the version change automatically
• --fast - Skip counting individual changes
• --output=DIR - Write PR title.txt and body.md to DIR

3. Push and create PR

After the utility commits, push the branch and create a PR.

Notes

• The core provider tracks mql's version -- never release it independently.
• The utility generates a changelog from commit messages since the last version bump.
• With --commit, commits are authored as "Mondoo [e-mail]".
• The CI workflow at .github/workflows/release-providers.yml can also trigger releases via workflow dispatch.

Typical Flow

1. Run check to see what changed
2. Confirm with the user which providers to release
3. Run update with --increment=patch --commit
4. Push the branch and create a PR
