The Changelog Podcast: Practical Steps to Stay Safe on npm
Learn the essential steps every developer should take to stay secure on npm and reduce exposure to supply chain attacks.
npm install file-bump
import bump from 'bump-file';
bump(file, [increment='patch']);
The second argument can also be an object:
bump(file, {
increment,
preId, // Prerelease identifier (such as "alpha", "beta", "rc")
get, // Function to get version. Default: pkg => pkg.version
set // Function to set version. Default: (pkg, version) => pkg.version = version
});
You can install this globally (npm install -g file-bump), and use from CLI:
bump file [increment] [preId]
bump('package.json', 'minor'); // 1.0.0 → 1.1.0
bump('package.json', { // 1.4.2 → 2.0.0-beta.0
increment: 'premajor',
preId: 'beta'
});
See the tests for more example.
