Installation

You can download and install the latest version of this software from the Python package index (PyPI) as follows:

pip install --upgrade bumpversion

Usage

bumpversion [options] file [file ...]

[bumpversion]
current_version = 0.2.9
files = setup.py
commit = True
tag = True

Options

file [file ...] / files =

no default value

The files where to search and replace version strings

Command line example:

bumpversion setup.py src/VERSION.txt

Config file example:

[bumpversion]
files = setup.py src/VERSION.txt

--bump / bump =

default: patch

Part of the version to increase.

Valid values include those given in the --serialize / --parse option.

Example bumping to 0.6.0:

bumpversion --current-version 0.5.1 --bump minor setup.py

Example bumping to 2.0.0:

bumpversion --current-version 1.1.9 --bump major setup.py

--current-version / current_version =

no default value

The current version of the software package.

Example:

bumpversion --current-version 0.5.1 setup.py

--new-version / new_version =

no default value

The version of the software after the increment

Example (Go from 0.5.1 directly to 0.6.1):

bumpversion --current-version 0.5.1 --new-version 0.6.1 setup.py

--parse / parse =

default: “(?P<major>\d+)\.(?P<minor>\d+)\.(?P<patch>\d+)”

Regular expression (using Python regular expression syntax) on how to find and parse the version string.

Is required to parse all strings produced by --serialize. Named matching groups (”(?P<name>...)”) provide values to use with the --bump flag.

--serialize / serialize =

default: “{major}.{minor}.{patch}”

Template specifying how to serialize the version parts to a version string again.

This is templated using the Python Format String Syntax. Available in the template context are parsed values of the named groups specified in --parse as well as all environment variables (prefixed with $).

--tag / tag = True

default: Don’t create a tag

Whether to create a git tag, that is the new version, prefixed with the character “v”. Don’t forget to git-push with the --tags flag.

--commit / commit = True

default: Don’t create a commit

Whether to create a git commit

--message / message =

default: “Bump version: {current_version} → {new_version}”

The commit message to use when creating a commit. Only valid when using --commit / commit = True.

This is templated using the Python Format String Syntax. Available in the template context are current_version and new_version as well as all environment variables (prefixed with $).

Example:

bumpversion --message 'Jenkins Build {$BUILD_NUMBER}: {new_version}'

-dry-run, -n

Don’t touch any files, just pretend

-h, --help

Print help and exit

Development

Development of this happens on GitHub, patches including tests, documentation are very welcome, as well as bug reports! Also please open an issue if this tool does not support every aspect of bumping versions in your development workflow, as it is intended to be very versatile.
