pnpm install pnpm test pnpm run typecheck pnpm run build pnpm run verify:package
The committed lockfile and pnpm-workspace.yaml define the dependency security policy. Newly released dependency versions must age for 14 days before they can enter the lockfile, transitive dependencies cannot use Git or arbitrary tarball sources, and only explicitly approved dependencies can run lifecycle build scripts. Review changes to both files together when updating dependencies.
verify:package creates the npm tarball, rejects files outside the published runtime allowlist, installs it into a clean temporary project, and smoke-tests every exports entry point and the bin executable. The required paths are derived from package.json, so a new export subpath is covered automatically.
tsconfig.build.json turns off sourceMap and declarationMap that the base tsconfig.json enables. The published tarball ships dist but not src, so emitted maps would point at files the consumer never receives — the allowlist rejects them rather than shipping dangling maps. Local pnpm run typecheck still uses the base config, so editor tooling is unaffected.
Without a local pnpm install, prek can compile the SDK or verify the package with its own managed node + pnpm toolchain:
prek run compile-ts-sdk --all-files prek run --hook-stage manual verify-ts-sdk-package --all-files
The public API reference is generated from the TypeScript sources with TypeDoc and published to https://airflow.apache.org/docs/ts-sdk/stable/.
Build it locally (runs the pinned toolchain in a Node container, so no local Node install is needed):
breeze build-docs --sdk-docs-only --sdk=typescript
The rendered site is staged at generated/_build/docs/ts-sdk/stable/, alongside a stable.txt holding the version from ts-sdk/package.json. To iterate on the docs directly instead, npm ci && npm run build inside ts-sdk/docs/ writes to ts-sdk/docs/_build/html/, and npm start rebuilds on change.
typedoc.config.mjs pins the theme's basePath to /docs/ts-sdk/<version>, so the generated HTML expects to be served from that prefix and looks unstyled when opened straight off disk. Override it for any local preview, npm start included:
TS_SDK_DOCS_BASE_PATH=/ npm run build && npx serve _build/html
npm run build also strips the theme's Google Fonts tags and then fails if the output still has root-relative asset URLs or remote font requests. npm test covers those checks; npm start skips them, so run a full build before publishing.
CI builds the reference on every change under ts-sdk/src/ or ts-sdk/docs/, so a broken docs build fails the PR rather than the release.
Publishing is a separate, deliberate step — a providers-only publish wave will not refresh the SDK docs as a side effect. Trigger the Publish Docs to S3 workflow for the release ref:
gh workflow run "Publish Docs to S3" --repo apache/airflow --ref main \ -f ref=<RELEASE_REF> \ -f include-docs=ts-sdk \ -f destination=live
Use destination=staging first and check https://airflow.staged.apache.org/docs/ts-sdk/stable/, then publish to live and confirm that https://airflow.apache.org/docs/ts-sdk/stable/ resolves (allow time for cache invalidation) and that /docs/ts-sdk/ redirects to it.
The manually dispatched Release TypeScript SDK workflow first builds, tests, and hashes one package tarball without OIDC permissions. Its protected publish job then either uses npm's staged-publishing flow or publishes the formal release directly.
npm's registry supports only one trusted-publisher configuration per package, so both release paths share a single configuration pinned to a single GitHub environment:
npm trust github apache-airflow-ts-sdk \ --repo apache/airflow \ --file ts-sdk-release.yml \ --environment ts-sdk-npm-release \ --allow-stage-publish \ --allow-publish
Confirm it with npm trust list apache-airflow-ts-sdk. A second npm trust github for the same package is rejected, so replace an outdated configuration with npm trust revoke first.
Because the registry cannot express “stage only” and “publish only” as separate relationships, what separates the two paths is the GitHub environment gate rather than an npm-side permission split. Require reviewers and prevent self-review on ts-sdk-npm-release, restrict its deployment tags to ts-sdk/*, and protect those tags from updates and deletion with a repository ruleset. The pinned --environment claim means a workflow edit that drops the gate loses the ability to publish at all.
Create and push a ts-sdk/<version> tag whose version exactly matches package.json, then dispatch the workflow on that same tag so npm provenance names the source commit that produced the tarball. The tag must already exist on apache/airflow before the dispatch below can reference it as --ref:
git tag ts-sdk/0.1.0-beta1 <commit-sha> git push upstream ts-sdk/0.1.0-beta1
To submit the package to npm's private staging area for review, run:
gh workflow run ts-sdk-release.yml --repo apache/airflow --ref ts-sdk/0.1.0-beta1 \ -f release_type=staged \ -f tag=ts-sdk/0.1.0-beta1 \ -f npm_tag=beta
The publish job calls npm stage publish only after the unprivileged build job has uploaded a checksummed tarball. The version is not publicly installable until a maintainer reviews and approves it with 2FA. The following commands require npm 11.15 or later:
npm stage list apache-airflow-ts-sdk npm stage view <stage-id> npm stage download <stage-id> npm stage approve <stage-id>
The approval cannot run through the trusted-publisher workflow because npm requires interactive proof of presence. Reject an unsuitable staged version with npm stage reject <stage-id>. Do not run the formal workflow for a version that is already staged; approve or reject that staged version instead.
To publish directly without npm's staging review, trigger the formal path:
gh workflow run ts-sdk-release.yml --repo apache/airflow --ref ts-sdk/0.1.0-beta1 \ -f release_type=formal \ -f tag=ts-sdk/0.1.0-beta1 \ -f npm_tag=beta
Use latest for stable releases. A prerelease may only use the channel derived from its own prerelease identifier (0.1.0-beta1 → beta) or next — scripts/validate-release-inputs.mjs rejects any other tag. The workflow also rejects a dispatch that would move the selected npm dist-tag backward as of when it runs. For a staged release, the dist-tag only actually moves later, at npm stage approve time, which is not re-validated — approve staged versions in the order they were requested so the dist-tag does not regress. Both publication paths use short-lived npm OIDC credentials and automatically publish provenance. After verifying the trusted-publisher setup, disable token-based publishing and revoke obsolete npm automation tokens.
