Install

  1. npm install upver
  2. Create a YAML configuration file with this format (and note the <@VERSION@> placeholder for the new version string):
file: path/to/file/relative/to/project/root.yml
  search: Regex search for, e.g.: '"version": (".+")'
  replacement: The tet to replace the search string. E.g. '"version": "<@VERSION@>"'
file: ...
  search: ...
  replacement: ...
  1. Configure package.json to point to the location of the above configuration file:
  "config": {
    "upver": "path/to/upver/config.file.yml"
  }

Usage

This module gets the version number as an argument to the module, or from package.json.

There are three ways you could use upver:

Option 1 - Use with an NPM hook You can use NPM's built-in `(pre|post)version` [script-hook](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/version) to run code before/just-after/after the version in `package.json` has been changed.

The files that are changed are git added in preparation for the changes being committed by npm version in subsequent steps.

In the following example, upver does NOT receive the version as an argument but queries package.json to get the bumped version.

"scripts"{
  "version": "upver"
}
Option 2 - Use with `corp-semantic-release` `corp-semantic-release` provides a `--pre-commit ` option. `upver` is passed the version number as an argument to the script.

The files that are changed are git added in preparation for the changes being committed corp-semantic-release in subsequent steps.

Both of the following examples are equivalent:

"scripts"{
  "corp-release": "corp-semantic-release --pre-commit updateFiles",
  "updateFiles": "upver"
}
"scripts"{
  "corp-release": "corp-semantic-release",
  "version": "upver"
}
Option 3 - Use with `semantic-release` The [semantic-release](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release) package provides hooks to allow `upver` to be called after `package.json` has been updated.

NOTE: semantic-release does not commit file changes to git, but rather publishes the changes to NPM, then uploads a ZIP file to GitHub. This means that the files versioned by upver will only contain the correct version when you install the module (not in git or on your file-system). That's just how the semantic-release tool works.

Example:

"scripts"{
  "semantic-release": "semantic-release pre && upver && npm publish && semantic-release post"
}
