This PR adds a GitHub Actions workflow to automatically publish the json5-kotlin library to GitHub Packages.

Changes Made

  • Added .github/workflows/publish-github-packages.yml workflow file

Workflow Features

Triggers:

  • Automatic: On version tags (e.g., v1.0.0, v2.1.3)
  • Manual: Via workflow_dispatch from GitHub Actions UI

Configuration:

  • Uses Java 21 (matches project requirements from buildSrc)
  • Caches Gradle packages for faster builds
  • Uses GITHUB_TOKEN with github.actor for authentication
  • Comprehensive inline comments explaining setup requirements

Key Benefits

  • Zero additional setup required - leverages existing maven-publish configuration in lib/build.gradle.kts
  • Secure authentication - uses GitHub's built-in GITHUB_TOKEN
  • Flexible triggering - supports both automated tag-based and manual publishing
  • Well-documented - extensive comments explain configuration options and alternatives

Usage

The workflow will automatically publish hossain.dev:json5kt:1.0.0 to GitHub Packages when:

  1. A version tag is pushed (e.g., git tag v1.0.0 && git push origin v1.0.0)
  2. Manually triggered from the GitHub Actions tab

Technical Notes

The existing publishing configuration in lib/build.gradle.kts already includes:

  • Maven publication setup with proper metadata
  • GitHub Packages repository configuration
  • Authentication using USERNAME and TOKEN environment variables

This workflow simply provides the CI/CD automation layer on top of the existing setup.

Fixes #19.
