How it works

bump-version assues you have two release branches: master and beta. Each commit in these branches that is marked as a fix, feature or breaking change in it's commit message triggers a new release.

  • Changes to beta trigger prereleases, changes to master trigger regular releases.
  • A fix causes a patch version update (e.g. 1.2.3 -> 1.2.4), a features increments the minor (1.2.3 -> 1.3.0) and a breaking changes change the major version component (1.2.3 -> 2.0.0).
  • For each release, the changelog is updated to contain the latest changes.
  • The new changelog is pushed to the git remote
  • A new git tag is created for the release, with release-files (the contents of the ./out/ directory by default) added.
  • A GitHub release is created with release notes from the git history
  • A new npm release is created and published if the repository's package.json doesn't contain "private": true.

Example commit messages

For further information take a look at the complete guideline in the angular respoitory.

  • fix(scope): Prevent an error: Triggers a patch release
  • feat(scope): Something new added: Triggers a minor release
  • break(scope): Major API change: Triggers a major release

Installation

With nodejs installed run npm install --save-dev @ls-age/bump-version to add bump-version as a dependency.

Usage

In a CI environment (preferred)

  • Create a new GitHub API Token (with write access to releases) the script should use.
  • Make sure your CI environment is set up with push access to your repository.
  • Log into npm with your user account (Using a token or username and password)
  • As the last step in your build run the release command: npx bump-version --gh-token <GITHUB API TOKEN>

Take a look at this respository's CircleCI configuration for a real-world usage example.
