# Publishing to crates.io

## Prerequisites

1. Create a crates.io account at https://crates.io
2. Get your API token from https://crates.io/me
3. Login to cargo:
   ```bash
   cargo login YOUR_API_TOKEN
   ```

## Before Publishing

1. **Update Cargo.toml**:
   - Replace "Your Name <your.email@example.com>" with your actual name and email
   - Replace "yourusername" in the repository URL with your GitHub username
   - Consider if "lock-free" name is available (check on crates.io)

2. **Test everything**:
   ```bash
   cargo test
   cargo test --release
   cargo bench
   ```

3. **Check package**:
   ```bash
   cargo package --list  # See what files will be included
   cargo package         # Create the package locally
   cargo publish --dry-run  # Test publishing without uploading
   ```

## Publishing

```bash
cargo publish
```

## After Publishing

- The crate will be available at https://crates.io/crates/lock-free
- Documentation will automatically be built at https://docs.rs/lock-free
- Users can add it to their Cargo.toml:
  ```toml
  [dependencies]
  lock-free = "0.1.0"
  ```

## Version Updates

For future updates:
1. Update version in Cargo.toml
2. Update CHANGELOG (if you have one)
3. Tag the release: `git tag v0.1.1`
4. Run `cargo publish`

## Important Notes

- Once published, you CANNOT delete or overwrite a version
- The name "lock-free" might already be taken - check first
- Consider using a more unique name like "your-prefix-lock-free"
