py-semver-bumper 0.1.1

A Python command-line tool for bumping semantic versions

py-semver-bumper

A Python command-line tool for bumping semantic versions with support for patch, minor, and major version increments.

Features

• Semantic Versioning Support: Handles standard semver format (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH[-PRERELEASE][+BUILD])
• Multiple Bump Types: Support for patch, minor and major bumps
• pyproject.toml Integration: Automatically reads and updates version from pyproject.toml
• Command Line Interface: Easy-to-use CLI with clear options

Installation

From PyPI (Recommended)

# Install using pip
pip install py-semver-bumper

# Or using uv
uv add py-semver-bumper

Usage

Command Line Interface

The tool can be used as a module or installed as a command-line tool.

Basic Usage

# Bump patch version (reads from pyproject.toml)
py-semver-bumper patch

# Bump minor version with specific version
py-semver-bumper minor -v 1.2.3

# Bump major version and update pyproject.toml
py-semver-bumper major --update

Options

• -v, --version: Specify the version to bump (if not provided, reads from pyproject.toml)
• -u, --update: Update the pyproject.toml file with the new version
• bump_type: The type of bump to perform (patch, minor, major, prerelease)

Examples

# Output new version without updating files
py-semver-bumper patch
# Output: 1.0.1

# Update pyproject.toml with new version
py-semver-bumper minor --update
# Output: 1.1.0

# Use specific version
py-semver-bumper major -v 2.1.0
# Output: 3.0.0

Programmatic Usage

from py_semver_bumper import SemverBumper

# Create bumper with version string
bumper = SemverBumper("1.2.3")

# Bump versions
new_patch = bumper.patch()    # 1.2.4
new_minor = bumper.minor()    # 1.3.0
new_major = bumper.major()    # 2.0.0

# Convert to string
print(str(new_patch))  # "1.2.4"

Automating Releases with GitHub CLI

You can automate the release process using GitHub CLI. Here are some examples:

Simple Release Script

#!/bin/bash

BUMP_TYPE=${1:-patch}  # Default to patch if no argument provided

# Bump version and update pyproject.toml
NEW_VERSION=$(py-semver-bumper $BUMP_TYPE --update)

# Commit the version bump
git add pyproject.toml
git commit -m "Bump version to $NEW_VERSION"

# Push to remote
git push origin main

# Create GitHub release
gh release create $NEW_VERSION --title "Release $NEW_VERSION" --generate-notes

One-liner for Quick Releases

# Bump patch version, commit, push, and create release
NEW_VERSION=$(py-semver-bumper patch --update) && \
git add pyproject.toml && \
git commit -m "Bump version to $NEW_VERSION" && \
git push origin main && \
gh release create $NEW_VERSION --title "Release $NEW_VERSION" --generate-notes

Just command

You can add this to your justfile to automate the release process.

release bump='patch':
    #!/bin/sh
    export NEW_VERSION=$(py-semver-bumper {{ bump }} --update)
    git add pyproject.toml
    git commit -m "Bump version to $NEW_VERSION"
    git push origin main
    gh release create $NEW_VERSION --title "Release $NEW_VERSION" --generate-notes

Development

This project uses Just for task management. Run just to see all available commands.

The project uses Ruff for linting and formatting and Ty for type checking:

• Lint: just lint
• Format: just format
• Type Check: just typecheck

Tests are written using pytest:

• Run Unit Tests: just pytest

Roadmap

• Implement prerelease version bumping
• Add support for build metadata
• Add validation for semver format
• Add support for other version file formats (setup.py, etc.)
• Add dry-run mode
• Add interactive mode for version selection
