pkgver

CLI tool for managing versions in Package files. (This includes package.json, bower.json, etc)

Description

Provides a simple CLI for reading, setting, bumping, and syncing the version numbers across various package files.

Example, you're writing a Javascript module that could be installed from either NPM or Bower. Consequently, you have a package.json and a bower.json in your module's directory. Using pkgver, you run pkv bump or pkv set 1.2.3, and both of these files are now updated and in sync!

Usage

pkgver can be invoked via pkgver, pkv, or ver from the command line.

Most methods look something like:

pkg <action> [part] [value] --options

Where part and value are optional, depending on the action.

The part option can be one of the 4 semver parts: Major.minor.patch-pre

Log

pkv [log] (pkv or pkv log)

Will log out the name & version of all Package files in the current directory. Will also mark any invalid version numbers.

Sync

pkv sync

Will sync the version numbers in all Package files in the current directory to the highest version number found.

Set

pkv set [part] <value> (pkv set 1.2.3 or pkv set patch 12)

Will set the version numbers in all Package files in the current directory to the given value.

If part is not given, value must be a valid semver version number.

If part is given (Major.minor.patch-pre), the value must be an integer (Except in the case of pre, in which any alpha-numeric value is valid).

Bump

pkv bump [part] (pkv bump or pkv bump pre)

Will bump the version numbers in all Package files in the current directory.

If part is given (Major.minor.patch-pre), then the requested piece will be bumped by 1.

If part is not given, pkgver will default to bumping the patch number by 1.

Note: if pre is bumped, and no pre number currently exists, the patch number will be bumped by 1, and pre will be set to 1. (1.0.0 -> 1.0.1-1)

Note: if patch is bumped, and a pre number currently exists, the patch number will NOT change, but the pre will be dropped. (1.0.1-3 -> 1.0.1)
