Released under the MIT license

Bump Anything is a command-line utility for incrementing the version It serves as a more-flexible alternative to npm version and similar tools because Bump Anything can handle any arbitrary text file and has built-in support for different types of projects.

Features

• Bump the version number in any arbitrary file
• Supports most project types (if no paths are supplied, automatically detects package.json in Node, setup.py or pyproject.toml in Python, style.css for WordPress themes, etc.)

Installation

Bump Anything requires Python 3.9 or newer to run, so please ensure you have it installed.

pip3 install bump-anything

Usage

Bump Anything exposes to your shell a bump-anything command (also aliased to bump). The only required argument is a keyword indicating how you want to increment each version. It can be either major, minor, or patch.

bump major # 1.2.3 -> 2.0.0

bump minor # 1.2.3 -> 1.3.0

bump patch # 1.2.3 -> 1.2.4

bump prerelease # 1.2.3-beta.1 -> 1.2.3-beta.2

bump 2.3.4

bump v2.3.4 # same as `bump 2.3.4`

With this syntax, Bump Anything will do its best to find the relevant files to bump. However, Bump Anything can also accept an optional list of one or more file paths whose versions to bump. Only the first occurrence of the version field in each file will be updated.

bump minor subdir/myfile1.json subdir/myfile2.toml

Git Integration

The bump command will automatically create a tagged commit if the current directory is a Git repository. Only the files that have been modified by bump will be staged.

Custom commit message

You can explicitly specify the commit message with --commit-message or -m. The default is Prepare v<new_version> release. You can use the {new_version} placeholder to represent the new version (without any prefix).

bump --commit-message 'Release v{new_version}' major

bump -m 'Release v{new_version}' major

Custom tag name

You can explicitly specify the tag name with --tag-name or -t (default: v<new_version>). You can use the {new_version} placeholder to represent the new version (without any prefix).

bump --tag-name 'release/{new_version}' patch

bump -t 'release/{new_version}' patch

Disabling committing and/or tagging

If you do not wish for bump to automatically create a commit and tag, you can pass the --no-commit flag (alias: -n):

bump --no-commit minor

bump -n minor

Disabling tagging only

If you wish to disable the automatic tag creation but still create a commit, you can pass the --no-tag flag:

bump --no-tag patch
