Super Sport

An almost worthless utility library that aids with releasing projects that have single-segment version numbers.

Usage

This doesn't provide any leiningen tasks or middleware, but needs to be a plugin dependency to be available to the change task. So, add [supersport "1"] to the :plugins vector of you project.clj, then update the release tasks to be:

:release-tasks [["vcs" "assert-committed"]
                  ["change" "version"
                   "super.sport/bump-version" "release"] ; <- this line changed
                  ["vcs" "commit"]
                  ["vcs" "tag"]
                  ["deploy"]
                  ["change" "version" "super.sport/bump-version"] ; <- this line changed
                  ["vcs" "commit"]
                  ["vcs" "push"]]

For more details on the release tasks, see the lein deploy guide.

What it does

This provides one function: super.sport/bump-version that mimics leiningen.release/bump-version, but operates on single-segment versions instead of semantic versions. A single-segment version will match #"^\d+(-SNAPSHOT)?$". Examples include: "1", 99-SNAPSHOT", "8675309".

The function follows the following rules:

1. the version is parsed, and any -SNAPSHOT suffix is dropped
2. if a release version was requested, the version is returned
3. otherwise, the version is incremented by one, and a -SNAPSHOT suffix is appended

Why?

There are some classes of applications where semantic versioning doesn't make sense, and a single incrementing version will suffice (a web app is a good example).

Thanks

Thanks to Nelson Morris for the inspiration.
