Releasing new versions

Use npm version --no-git-tag-version to update the version number using major, minor, patch, or the prerelease variants premajor, preminor, or prepatch. We use --no-git-tag-version to avoid automatically tagging - tagging with the version automatically triggers a CI run that publishes, and we only want to do that upon merging the PR into main.

After doing this, follow our usual instructions for the actual process of tagging and releasing the package.

Running postgresql tests locally

If you don't have postgresql running locally, you can launch postgresql in docker.

docker run -p 5432:5432 -e POSTGRES_USER=root circleci/postgres:9-alpine-ram

Then run the tests using

PGUSER=root PGDATABASE=postgres npm test
