Support Python Versions

This project should be consider in beta as it could have bugs due to being only a few months old.
The BumpCalver CLI is a command-line interface for calendar-based version bumping. It automates the process of updating version strings in your project's files based on the current date and build count. Additionally, it can create Git tags and commit changes automatically. The CLI is highly configurable via a pyproject.toml file and supports various customization options to fit your project's needs.

Documentation Site: BumpCalver CLI
To install the BumpCalver CLI, you can add it to your project's dependencies. If it's packaged as a Python module, you might install it via:
pip install bumpcalverNote: Replace the installation command with the actual method based on how the package is distributed.
-
Configure Your Project: Create or update the
pyproject.tomlfile in your project's root directory to include the[tool.bumpcalver]section with your desired settings. -
Run the CLI: Use the
bumpcalvercommand with appropriate options to bump your project's version.
Example:
bumpcalver --build --git-tag --auto-commitThe BumpCalver CLI relies on a pyproject.toml configuration file located at the root of your project. This file specifies how versioning should be handled, which files to update, and other settings.
As an alternative, you can use configuration file named bumpcalver.toml. The CLI will look for this file if pyproject.toml is not found.
version_format(string): Format string for the version. Should include{current_date}and{build_count}placeholders.date_format(string): Format string for the date. Supports various combinations of year, month, day, quarter, and week.timezone(string): Timezone for date calculations (e.g.,UTC,America/New_York).file(list of tables): Specifies which files to update and how to find the version string.path(string): Path to the file to be updated.file_type(string): Type of the file (e.g.,python,toml,yaml,json,xml,dockerfile,makefile,properties,env,setup.cfg).variable(string, optional): The variable name that holds the version string in the file.pattern(string, optional): A regex pattern to find the version string.version_standard(string, optional): The versioning standard to follow (e.g.,pythonfor PEP 440).
git_tag(boolean): Whether to create a Git tag with the new version.auto_commit(boolean): Whether to automatically commit changes when creating a Git tag.

%Y.%m.%d- Full year, month, and day (e.g.,2024.12.25)%y.%m.%d- Year without century, month, and day (e.g.,24.12.25)%y.Q%q- Year and quarter (e.g.,24.Q1)%y.%m- Year and month (e.g.,24.12)%y.%j- Year and day of the year (e.g.,24.001for January 1st, 2024)%Y.%j- Full year and day of the year (e.g.,2024.001for January 1st, 2024)%Y.%m- Full year and month (e.g.,2024.12)%Y.Q%q- Full year and quarter (e.g.,2024.Q1)
Refer to the Python datetime documentation for more format codes.
BumpCalver supports version management for the following file types:
python- Python files with version variables (e.g.,__version__ = "1.0.0")toml- TOML configuration files (e.g.,pyproject.toml)yaml- YAML configuration filesjson- JSON configuration files (e.g.,package.json)xml- XML configuration files
dockerfile- Docker files with ARG or ENV variablesmakefile- Makefiles with version variables
properties- Java-style properties files (e.g.,sonar-project.properties)- Format:
key=value - Example:
sonar.projectVersion=2025.02.02
- Format:
env- Environment variable files (e.g.,.env)- Format:
KEY=valueorKEY="value" - Example:
VERSION=2025.02.02
- Format:
setup.cfg- Python setup configuration files- Supports both dot notation (
metadata.version) and simple keys (version) - Example:
version = 2025.02.02in[metadata]section
- Supports both dot notation (
The CLI provides several options to customize the version bumping process.
Usage: bumpcalver [OPTIONS]
Options:
--beta Use beta versioning.
--rc Use rc versioning.
--release Use release versioning.
--custom TEXT Add custom suffix to version.
--build Use build count versioning.
--timezone TEXT Timezone for date calculations (default: value
from config or America/New_York).
--git-tag / --no-git-tag Create a Git tag with the new version.
--auto-commit / --no-auto-commit
Automatically commit changes when creating a Git
tag.
--undo Undo the last version bump operation.
--undo-id TEXT Undo a specific operation by ID.
--list-history List recent operations that can be undone.
--help Show this message and exit.--beta: Adds.betasuffix to the version.--rc: Adds.rcsuffix to the version.--release: Adds.releasesuffix to the version.--custom TEXT: Adds a custom suffix to the version.--build: Increments the build count based on the current date.--timezone: Overrides the timezone specified in the configuration.--git-tag/--no-git-tag: Forces Git tagging on or off, overriding the configuration.--auto-commit/--no-auto-commit: Forces auto-commit on or off, overriding the configuration.
BumpCalver includes powerful undo functionality to revert version changes:
--undo: Undo the most recent version bump operation.--undo-id TEXT: Undo a specific operation by its unique ID.--list-history: Show recent version bump operations that can be undone.
Note: Undo options cannot be combined with version bump options.
To bump the version using the current date and build count:
bumpcalver --buildTo create a beta version:
bumpcalver --build --betaTo use a specific timezone:
bumpcalver --build --timezone Europe/LondonTo bump the version, commit changes, and create a Git tag:
bumpcalver --build --git-tag --auto-commitView recent version bump operations:
bumpcalver --list-historyUndo the last version bump:
bumpcalver --undoUndo a specific operation by ID:
bumpcalver --undo-id 20251012_143015_123Use undo functionality as a safety net during development:
# Make experimental version bump
bumpcalver --custom "experimental"
# Test your changes...
# If tests pass, make official version
bumpcalver --undo # Undo experimental version
bumpcalver --build --git-tag --auto-commit # Official version
# If tests fail, just undo
bumpcalver --undo # Back to original stateFor complete undo documentation, see Undo Docs.
