CLI tool for deciding the next semantic version of the project, using conventional commits.

Project description

Bump your Semantic Version using Conventional Commits

A Python CLI tool for calculating how to bump a Semantic Version based on a commit message.

Installation and Usage

$> pip install conventional_semver

Configuration

Create a .toml file and modify the settings you want to be different from the PCCC defaults. An example config.toml file is present in this repository.

Usage

The most basic usage of this tool is to create a config file as described above and pass a conventional commit message as input to the script.

$> conventional_semver "fix: ensure /api/list-all returns properly"
$> 0.0.1

It is also possible to provide a SemVer as an argument and have the script calculate the next version:

$> conventional_semver --semver 1.0.8 "feat: add new cool feature"
$> 1.1.0

The tool also supports the SemVer options for pre-releases and build metadata, using --pre-release and --build-meta, which will append the provided strings in a SemVer compatible manner.

$> conventional_semver --semver 1.0.8 --pre-release alpha.1 --build-meta $(date -u +"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ") "feat: add new cool feature"
$> 1.1.0-alpha.1+2024-01-11T07:21:57Z

Note that the lib used for SemVer parsing is a bit more relaxed than the official documentation, w.r.t. pre-release and build metadata. Make sure the strings provided follow the SemVer specification!

Pipeline example

This tool is particularly useful if you work trunk based, as you can use it in combination with the information already present in your git repository to automatically tag your new commit. I have created a sample project where I show how to use the tool in a GitHub Workflow, both for validating PRs and for tagging new commits on main.

Dependencies

The tool relies on The Python Conventional Commit Parser for the validation of the commit message and on Python SemanticVersion for managing the Semantic Version. The former of these use the Enchant C Library used by PyEnchant.
