@release-it/bumper

Version read/write plugin for release-it

This plugin reads and/or writes version/manifest files.

npm install --save-dev @release-it/bumper

In release-it config:

"plugins": {
  "@release-it/bumper": {
    "out": "manifest.json"
  }
}

In case the in option is used, the version from this file will take precedence over the version from package.json or the latest Git tag (which release-it uses by default).

The default type is application/json, but text/plain is also supported. In that case the whole file is used to read and/or write the version.

"plugins": {
  "@release-it/bumper": {
    "in": { "file": "VERSION", "type": "text/plain" },
    "out": { "file": "VERSION", "type": "text/plain" }
  }
}

The out option can also be an array of files:

"plugins": {
  "@release-it/bumper": {
    "out": ["manifest.json", "bower.json"]
  }
}
