tbump: bump software releases

tbump helps you bump the version of your project easily.

Note

This project was originally hosted on the TankerHQ organization, which was my employer from 2016 to 2021. They kindly agreed to give me back ownership of this project. Thanks!

Installation

The recommended way to install tbump is to use pipx

  • Make sure to have Python 3.7 or later installed.
  • Install pipx
  • Run pipx install tbump.

tbump is also available on pypi and can be installed with pip if you know what you are doing.

Screenshot

Here's what a typical usage of tbump looks like:

$ tbump 5.0.5
:: Bumping from 5.0.4 to 5.0.5
=> Would patch these files
- setup.py:14 version="5.0.4",
+ setup.py:14 version="5.0.5",
- tbump.toml:2 current = "5.0.4"
+ tbump.toml:2 current = "5.0.5"
=> Would run these hooks before commit
* (1/2) $ ./test.sh
* (2/2) $ grep -q -F 5.0.5 Changelog.rst
=> Would run these git commands
 * git add --update
 * git commit --message Bump to 5.0.5
 * git tag --annotate --message v5.0.5 v5.0.5
 * git push origin master
 * git push origin v5.0.5
=> Would run these hooks after push
* (1/1) $ ./publish.sh

Usage

First, run tbump init <current_version>, where current_version is the current version of your program. This will create a tbump.toml file looking like this:

[version]
current = "1.2.41"
regex = '''
  (?P<major>\d+)
  \.
  (?P<minor>\d+)
  \.
  (?P<patch>\d+)
'''

[git]
message_template = "Bump to {new_version}"
tag_template = "v{new_version}"

[[file]]
src = "setup.py"

Note

  • The file uses toml syntax.
  • Strings should be templated using curly brackets, to be used with Python's built-in .format() method.
  • Paths may contain unix-style globs, e.g. src = "a/**/script.?s" matches both a/b/script.js and a/b/c/script.ts.
  • The version regular expression will be used in verbose mode and can contain named groups (see below).
  • tbump will also look for a [tool.tbump] section in the pyproject.toml file if its exists. You can use tbump init with the --pyproject option to append the configuration in this file instead of creating a new file.

Then run:

$ tbump 1.2.42

tbump will:

  • Replace the string 1.2.41 by 1.2.42 in every file listed in the configuration
  • Make a commit based on the message_template.
  • Make an annotated tag based on the tag_template
  • Push the current branch and the tag.

Note that by default, tbump will display all the changes and stop to ask if they are correct before performing any action, allowing you to abort and re-try the bump if something is not right. You can use --non-interactive to disable this behavior.

If you only want to bump the files without performing any git actions or running the hook commands, use the --only-patch option.

The current version of the project can be found using the command:

$ tbump current-version

Advanced configuration

Command-line options

See:

tbump --help

Restricting the lines that are replaced

Sometimes you want to make sure only the line matching a given pattern is replaced. For instance, with the following package.json:

/* in package.json */
{
   "name": "foo",
   "version": "0.42",
   "dependencies": {
     "some-dep": "0.42",
     "other-dep": "1.3",
   }
}

you'll want to make sure that when you bump from 0.42 to 0.43, that the line containing some-dep does not change.

In this case, you can set a search option in the file section:

# In tbump.toml

[[file]]
src = "package.json"
search = '"version": "{current_version}"'

Note that the search string is actually a full regular expression, except for the {current_version} marker which is substituted as plain text.

Using a custom version template

If you are using a version schema like 1.2.3-alpha-4, you may want to expose a variable that only contains the "public" part of the version string. (1.2.3 in this case).

To do so, add a version_template option in the file section. The names used in the format string should match the group names in the regular expression.

/* in version.js */

export FULL_VERSION = '1.2.3-alpha-4';
export PUBLIC_VERSION = '1.2.3';
[[file]]
src = "version.js"
version_template = "{major}.{minor}.{patch}"
search = "export PUBLIC_VERSION = '{current_version}'"

[[file]]
src = "version.js"
search = "export FULL_VERSION = '{current_version}'"

Running commands before commit

You can specify a list of hooks to be run after the file have changed, but before the commit is made and pushed.

This is useful if some of the files under version control are generated through an external program.

Here's an example:

[[before_commit]]
name = "Check Changelog"
cmd = "grep -q -F {new_version} Changelog.rst"

The name is mandatory. The command will be executed via the shell, after the {new_version} placeholder is replaced with the new version.

Any hook that fails will interrupt the bump. You may want to run git reset --hard before trying again to undo the changes made in the files.

Running commands after push

You can specify a list of hooks to be run right after the tag has been pushed, using an [[after_push]] section.

This is useful if you need the command to run on a clean repository, without un-committed changes, for instance to publish rust packages:

[[after_push]]
name = "Publish to crates.io"
cmd = "cargo publish"

Setting default values for version fields

(Added in 6.6.0)

If you have a version_template that includes fields that don't always have a match (e.g. prerelease info), you can set a default value to use instead of None, which would raise an error.

For example:

[version]
current = "1.2.3"
regex = """
  (?P<major>\d+)
  \.
  (?P<minor>\d+)
  \.
  (?P<patch>\d+)
  (\-
    (?P<extra>.+)
  )?
  """

[[file]]
src = "version.py"
version_template = '({major}, {minor}, {patch}, "{extra}")'
search = "version_info = {current_version}"

[[field]]
# the name of the field
name = "extra"
# the default value to use, if there is no match
default = ""

Working with git providers that don't support --atomic

If the push destination does not support --atomic, add atomic_push=false to the config file, under the [git] section:

..code-block:: ini

[git] atomic_push = false
