vbump

vbump is yet another Python package version bump tool. Unlike others, e.g. bumpversion, changes, etc., it aims to just do the obvious thing without any unneeded configuration or requirements.

It is a simple < 100 LOC package which has no dependencies and is compatible with Python 2.7 and 3.5+.

Prerequisites

• A SemVer version string specified in either setup.py or __version__.py.
• If __version__.py exists that will be used; the expected fromat is VERSION = "1.0.0".
• Otherwise setup.py will be used.

Installing

$ pip install vbump

Usage

usage: vbump [-h] [--patch | --minor | --major] [--test]
