Publishing packages after bumping updates version again

[kjellknapen]

In the monorepo project I'm working on, We want to publish our packages in the ci/cd pipeline. I have some packages that should be bumped but not published.

Right now I was thinking on implementing it by bumping the files locally and then publishing the bumped packages with a --scope flag to only publish certain packages to the registry.

As of now I don't see a way to do this without publish bumping the versions again. Am I missing something? A flag or config setting? Adding --no-bump has no effect to the version number.

As an example here are the commands I run:

npx beachball change --all --type prerelease --no-commit --message 'Prepare packages for update'

npx beachball bump --prereleasePrefix next --keepChangeFiles

npx beachball publish --tag next --no-push --no-bump --scope CORRECT_SCOPE_HERE

I'm wondering the same thing. I want to be able to bump packages, then run some other CI steps, and then publish. Even with --no-bump I end up with a double version bump.

I'm assuming that the correct way to do this is to utilise the prepublish hook, but the process as described above should be far simpler
