📦🚀 Spice up your release workflows with automated version bumps! 🚀📦

About

The Version Bumper Action uses the version bumper tool to figure out the next semantic version bump based on conventional commits, or plain instructions.

Successful upgrades examples: alexa-skills-tester, github-viewer-stats, auto-me-bot, tomfi-archetypes, shabbat-api,

Version 3 introduced breaking changes

• The action was rebuilt using Node.js.
• Changes in the action flags:
  • changelog was removed.
  • preset was removed.
  • folder was changed to path. It's worth mentioning the folder/path requires a full path and not a folder relative to the workspace. (folder will eventually be removed).
  • bumpoverride was changed to bump (bumpoverride will eventually be removed).

Usage example

- uses: actions/checkout@v2
  with:
    # fetch-depth 0 will check out all the commits and tags needed for the bumper
    fetch-depth: 0

- id: bumper
  uses: tomerfi/version-bumper-action@2.0.1

# assuming previous tag was 1.2.4 and feat-type commits were made, this will print 1.3.0.
- run: echo ${{ steps.bumper.outputs.next }}
