Bump 🍑

GitHub package.json version

Automate new releases for node.js projects on the command line.

A new release is defined as:

  1. An incremental increase to the version property in the package.json and package-lock.json files.
  2. A commit of the two json files with a descriptive message about the reason for the version bump.
  3. The optional creation of a tag with a descriptive message.

Install

npm install --global @bzelip/bump

This will install bump globally so that it can be run from the command line.

Use

There are two main commands:

  1. bump <strategy> <message>
  2. bump undo

bump

Bump your version based on a strategy, and include a description of the reason for the bump in the generated commit message.

bump <strategy> <message>
strategy (string, required)
strategy for the version bump
Choices:
  • major

  • minor

  • patch

message (string, required)
description of the reason for the version bump, to be appended to the generated commit message

Example

Input
# current version 0.4.0

bump minor "create custom slider"
Output
🍑: Successfully minor bumped version to 0.5.0 with the commit message:

"package*: v0.5.0 Bump minor for create custom slider 🎉"

Note bump does not push, it only commits locally.

undo

Undo a bump.

bump undo

This command is an alias for running:

git reset HEAD~

git checkout -- package*

Note Be sure to only use bump undo immediately after bump <strategy> <message> to have the desired action.

Assumptions

  • your project is git tracked
  • you are following Semantic Versioning
  • your current working directory includes both package.json and package-lock.json files

TODO

  • [ ] add the create tag with message option
  • [ ] add tests

My release protocol

My current release protocol includes:

  • git
  • a Semantic Versioning approach
  • a changelog.md
  • once a feature branch's work is finalized and documented in changelog.md:
    1. open package.json, bump the version accordingly
    2. open package-lock.json, bump the version accordingly
    3. commit with message of the form package*: v${version} ${strategy} bump for ${message} 🎉
    4. TODO: create new tag with command of the form: tag v${version} -m ${message}
    5. push to remote, and start the PR process (do this manually after bump.js)
    6. push new tag to remote (do this manually after bump.js)
