pygitversion 1.0.1

Installation

pip install pygitversion

Usage

The usage is almost exactly the same as using setuptools_scm, so follow those guidelines. This package merely adds a couple of plugin functions to make the versioning a bit better (eg. having the branch name in the version if applicable).

To summarise: create a pyproject.toml and include (at least) the following lines:

# pyproject.toml
[build-system]
requires = ["setuptools>=30.3.0", "wheel", "setuptools_scm", "pygitversion"]

Then in your setup.py, add the following to the call to setup():

# setup.py
from setuptools import setup
from pygitversion import branch_scheme

setup(
    ...
    use_scm_version={
        "local_scheme": branch_scheme
    },
)

You can now print the version of the package simply by doing:

$ python setup.py --version

To set the version of your code, make your __init__.py have the following:

from pkg_resources import get_distribution, DistributionNotFound
try:
    __version__ = get_distribution(__name__).version
except DistributionNotFound:
    # package is not installed
    pass

And that’s it!

Development

To run the all tests run:

tox
