From bdcd4a3704c4784426764619ccdb6649c1737f0b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Frederiksen Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2026 15:20:37 -0800 Subject: [PATCH 1/5] Add CLI tool and release automation Implements a full-featured CLI with stdin/stdout support and GoReleaser-based release automation with Homebrew tap integration. ## CLI Implementation - Add cmd/configdiff with main.go, root.go, version.go, compare.go - Add internal/cli package: - input.go: File/stdin reading, format detection - output.go: Output formatting (report, compact, json, patch) - options.go: CLI flags to library options mapping - Support all library features via flags - Stdin support with "-" notation - Exit code mode for CI integration - Version command with build info ## CLI Features - File comparison: configdiff old.yaml new.yaml - Stdin input: kubectl get -o yaml | configdiff old.yaml - - Output formats: report (default), compact, json, patch - All diff options: ignore paths, array keys, coercions - Exit code mode: --exit-code returns 1 if diffs found - Quiet mode: -q suppresses output ## Release Automation - Add .goreleaser.yml: - Cross-platform builds (Linux, macOS, Windows on amd64/arm64) - Version info injection via ldflags - Automatic Homebrew formula updates - Archive generation with README, LICENSE - Add .github/workflows/release.yml: - Triggers on version tags (v*) - Runs tests before release - Uses GoReleaser action - Requires HOMEBREW_TAP_GITHUB_TOKEN secret - Update CI workflow to build CLI binary ## Dependencies - github.com/spf13/cobra v1.10.2 - CLI framework - github.com/fatih/color v1.18.0 - Colored output (future use) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 --- .github/workflows/ci.yml | 3 + .github/workflows/release.yml | 47 +++++++++++++ .gitignore | 1 + .goreleaser.yml | 115
