the blessed package to manage your versions by scm tags
Project description
setuptools_scm handles managing your python package versions
in scm metadata instead of declaring them as the version argument
or in a scm managed file.
It also handles file finders for the supported scm’s.
Setup.py usage
To use setuptools_scm just modify your project’s setup.py file like this:
Add
'setuptools_scm'to thesetup_requiresparameterAdd the
use_scm_versionparameter and set it to TrueE.g.:
from setuptools import setup setup( ..., use_scm_version=True, setup_requires=['setuptools_scm'], ..., )
Programmatic usage
In order to use setuptools_scm for sphinx config, assuming the sphinx conf is one directory deeper than the project’s root, use:
.. code:: python
from setuptools_scm import get_version version = get_version(root=’..’, relative_to=__file__)
Notable Plugins
setuptools_scm_git_archive provides partial support for obtaining versions from git archvies that belong to tagged versions. The only reason for not including it in setuptools-scm itself is git/github not supporting sufficient metadata for untagged/followup commits, which is preventing a consistent UX.
Default versioning scheme
In the standard configuration setuptools_scm takes a look at 3 things:
latest tag (with a version number)
the distance to this tag (e.g. number of revisions since latest tag)
workdir state (e.g. uncommitted changes since latest tag)
and uses roughly the following logic to render the version:
no distance and clean:{tag}distance and clean:{next_version}.dev{distance}+n{revision hash}no distance and not clean:{tag}+dYYYMMMDDdistance and not clean:{next_version}.dev{distance}+n{revision hash}.dYYYMMMDD
The next version is calculated by adding 1 to the last numeric component of the tag.
Semantic Versioning (SemVer)
Due to the default behavior it’s necessary to always include a patch version (the 3 in 1.2.3), or else the automatic guessing will increment the wrong part of the semver (e.g. tag 2.0 results in 2.1.devX instead of 2.0.1.devX). So please make sure to tag accordingly.
Builtin mechanisms for obtaining version numbers
the scm itself (git/hg)

Configuration Parameters
In order to configure the way use_scm_version works you can provide a mapping with options instead of simple boolean value.
The Currently supported configuration keys are:
- root:
cwd relative path to use for finding the scm root, defaults to
.- version_scheme:
configures how the local version number is constructed. either an entrypoint name or a callable
- local_scheme:
configures how the local component of the version is constructed either an entrypoint name or a callable
- write_to:
declares a text file or python file which is replaced with a file containing the current version. its ideal or creating a version.py file within the package
- write_to_template:
a newstyle format string thats given the current version as the
versionkeyword argument for formatting- relative_to:
a file from which root may be resolved. typically called by a script or module that is not in the root of the repository to direct setuptools_scm to the root of the repository by supplying __file__.
- parse:
a function that will be used instead of the discovered scm for parsing the version, use with caution, this is a expert function and you should be closely familiar with the setuptools_scm internals to use it
To use setuptools_scm in other Python code you can use the get_version function:
from setuptools_scm import get_version
my_version = get_version()It optionally accepts the keys of the use_scm_version parameter as keyword arguments.
Environment Variables
- SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION:
when defined and not empty, its used as the primary source for the version number in which case it will be a unparsed string
Extending setuptools_scm
setuptools_scm ships with a few setuptools entrypoints based hooks to extend its default capabilities.
Adding a new SCM
setuptools_scm provides 2 entrypoints for adding new SCMs
- setuptools_scm.parse_scm
A function used to parse the metadata of the current workdir using the name of the control directory/file of your SCM as the entrypoint’s name. E.g. for the built-in entrypoint for git the entrypoint is named
.gitand references'setuptools_scm.git:parse'.The return value MUST be a
setuptools.version.ScmVersioninstance created by the functionsetuptools_scm.version:meta.- setuptools_scm.files_command
Either a string containing a shell command that prints all SCM managed files in its current working directory or a callable, that given a pathname will return that list.
Also use then name of your SCM control directory as name of the entrypoint.
Version number construction
- setuptools_scm.version_scheme
Configures how the version number is constructed given a
setuptools.version.ScmVersioninstance and should return a string representing the version.Available implementations:
- guess-next-dev:
automatically guesses the next development version (default)
- post-release:
generates post release versions (adds
postN)
- setuptools_scm.local_scheme
Configures how the local part of a version is rendered given a
setuptools.version.ScmVersioninstance and should return a string representing the local version.Available implementations:
- node-and-date:
adds the node on dev versions and the date on dirty workdir (default)
- dirty-tag:
adds
+dirtyif the current workdir has changes
Importing in setup.py
To support usage in setup.py passing a callable into use_scm_version
is supported.
Within that callable, setuptools_scm is available for import. The callable must return the configuration.
def myversion():
from setuptools_scm.version import dirty_tag
def clean_scheme(version):
if not version.dirty:
return '+clean'
else:
return dirty_tag(version)
return {'local_scheme': clean_scheme}Code of Conduct
Everyone interacting in the setuptools_scm project’s codebases, issue trackers, chat rooms, and mailing lists is expected to follow the PyPA Code of Conduct.
