Bump is a simple command-line tool for managing versions of your projects, allowing you to perform actions before and after bumping the version number.
npm install @norviah/bump --globalTo get started, run bump init. This will create a .bumprc.json file in your
project's root directory, this configuration file is used to define options that
alter how the tool will behave.
View here for a documentation of all available options and a description of what they do.
As previously mentioned, bump is a command-line tool used to manage versions of your projects. The tool allows you to define scripts to perform before and after bumping your project's version number, ensuring that each script is executed successfully before the next script.
The main command for this tool is release, which will start the bump process
to release a new version of your project. The bump process is split into three
stages:
- Pre-bump - before the version number is incremented,
- Bump - the version number is incremented,
- Post-bump - after the version number is incremented.
The bump stage represents the phase that the version number is incremented, here is where the version is incremented in the respective file, which is then committed with a new tag to represent the release.
You may customize the various aspects of the commit, such as the tag and release message, these are available in the configuration file.
For the pre-bump and post-bump stage, you may define any amount of scripts to be executed within a desired stage. These scripts are executed in the order specifeid and are executed only if the previous script was executed successfully - if a script fails, the bump process will be aborted.
This project was heavily inspired by Bumped.
