About semantic_versioning

Version and changelog management following semantic versioning and conventional commits.

The plugin provides two actions that have to be called in sequence, but therefore allow additional interaction with the results before an actual commit is being made.

One example could be to get the version info for the upcoming release, and when this is successful, i.e. a version bump is possible, create a release branch with that version number and change to that branch before making any changes. Then call the semantic_bump action to create the commit on the release branch, before you may want to create a pull request for the new release.

Hint: You can also use the context to upload the changelog to AppStoreConnect afterwards. See the example Fastfile for more info.

get_versioning_info

Call this in your lane to prepare a bump according to the rules. It will

• Determine next version number
• Build the changelog for the upcoming version bump

and provide this information in shared variables that are used in the second action.

semantic_bump

Call this to actually bump the version, write the changelog and commit everything.
