Hooks

Hi,

Is it possible to trigger pre/post-bumpversion scripts ?

Let me explain:

For a javascript module, you want to build a dist version of your module, so you need to run babel or somethings like that. It would be great if we could just run these sorts of command after or before bumpversion.

Thank you

I second this request. In my case, I would like to git add an updated CHANGELOG.md that I generate with https://github.com/vaab/gitchangelog, besides bumpversion:file and .bumbversion.cfg.

The nice way would be through hooks, but without them I’m forced to do something like this

#!/bin/sh

# fetch new version using bumpversion
CURRENT_VERSION=$(bumpversion --dry-run --allow-dirty --list patch | grep '^current_version' | sed -r s,"^.*=",,)
NEW_VERSION=$(bumpversion --dry-run --allow-dirty --list patch | grep '^new_version' | sed -r s,"^.*=",,)

# generate changelog
# see https://github.com/vaab/gitchangelog/issues/94
gitchangelog | sed -r "s/%%unreleased_version%%/${NEW_VERSION}/g" > CHANGELOG.md

# generate new revisions
bumpversion --dry-run --allow-dirty --verbose --no-commit patch

# stage changes
git add CHANGELOG.md VERSION .bumpversion.cfg

# commit message
# here, `new:` `dev:` and `!minor` are `gitchangelog` syntax
git commit -m "new: dev: bump version ${CURRENT_VERSION} to ${NEW_VERSION} !minor" 

# git tag new revision
git tag -a "v${NEW_VERSION}" -m "bump version v${NEW_VERSION} from v${CURRENT_VERSION}"

So, although this works, here I’m using bumpversion only as a revision parser. I like to think that bumpversion has more potential. I don’t see how this predates a Makefile.

@jdeniau Sorry, not going to happen. Bumpversion won’t be your new Makefile 😃
