gitsion

Get a version number for the current commit aka. HEAD which can be used for CI/CD pipelines to generate a unique version for every commit.

The future goal of this module is to generate a version number according to Semantic Versioning. Currently, the requirements for getting a semantic version are:

• Tags are in v1.0.0 or 1.0.0 format
• Git is installed and current directory is under version control

Examples of generated version numbers:

o Commit
| → 1.1.0-0001-g4be70ca
|
o Commit with tag v1.0.0
| → 1.0.0
|
o Commit without tag
  → 0.0.0-0000-b83b15e

Example CI/CD usage

When publishing, set the npm version beforehand:

npm version --no-git-tag-version --allow-same-version $(node_modules/.bin/gitsion)
npm publish
