Adds a notify-docs job that runs after pypi-publish. It tells qBraid/docs which version just reached PyPI, and qBraid/docs then opens a PR bumping its versions.json. Merging that PR moves this release's docs from Latest (tracks main) into Stable (latest PyPI release). See qBraid/docs#336 for the Stable/Latest setup.

  • The job reads the published version from PyPI after a short wait, so it doesn't depend on release tags.
  • continue-on-error: true, and it skips cleanly if the secret is missing, so it can never fail or block a release.
  • qBraid/docs also checks PyPI daily, so a missed event is caught within a day.

Needs an org or repo secret DOCS_DISPATCH_TOKEN: a fine-grained token, or a GitHub App token, with Contents: read and write on qBraid/docs. The GitHub API requires that permission to send a repository_dispatch. Until the secret exists, the job logs a skip.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Package release information is now sent to the documentation site after publication, helping keep its version details current.
  • Chores
    • Documentation notifications are handled independently of the package release, so a notification issue does not interrupt publishing.

Walkthrough

The publish workflow adds a post-publish job that can notify the documentation repository of the released package and its version. The job skips dispatch when its token is unset and does not fail the release.

Changes

Release notification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Dispatch release notification
.github/workflows/publish.yml
After pypi-publish, the workflow checks for DOCS_DISPATCH_TOKEN. When set, it waits 60 seconds, retrieves the package version from PyPI, and dispatches a package-released event to qBraid/docs. The job uses continue-on-error: true.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b5662

The documentation notification can identify the wrong release or send no valid version. Correct those paths before merging unless missed or inaccurate notifications are acceptable.

Dispatch the version from this release, not PyPI’s latest version.

PyPI’s project JSON endpoint returns metadata for the latest version. If PyPI still reports the previous release after 60 seconds, this job sends that previous version even though pypi-publish succeeded. Carry the built version from pypi-publish, wait until that version is visible on PyPI, and dispatch that version. (docs.pypi.org)

Fail the notification when the PyPI lookup fails.

This step uses GitHub’s unspecified Linux shell, bash -e, without pipefail. If curl produces no JSON after an HTTP error, jq can exit successfully with no output. VERSION is then empty, and Line 65 sends an invalid version. Set shell: bash to enable pipefail, and reject an empty or null version before dispatch. The job-level continue-on-error will still keep the release successful. (docs.github.com)
