npm-version | 1 | Bump a package version |
Synopsis
npm version [<newversion> | major | minor | patch | premajor | preminor | prepatch | prerelease [--preid=<prerelease-id>] | from-git]
'npm [-v | --version]' to print npm version
'npm view <pkg> version' to view a package's published version
'npm ls' to inspect current package/dependency versions
Configuration
allow-same-version
- Default: false
- Type: Boolean
Prevents throwing an error when npm version
is used to set the new version
to the same value as the current version.
commit-hooks
- Default: true
- Type: Boolean
Run git commit hooks when using the npm version
command.
git-tag-version
- Default: true
- Type: Boolean
Tag the commit when using the npm version
command.
json
- Default: false
- Type: Boolean
Whether or not to output JSON data, rather than the normal output.
- In
npm pkg set
it enables parsing set values with JSON.parse() before saving them to yourpackage.json
.
Not supported by all npm commands.
preid
- Default: ""
- Type: String
The "prerelease identifier" to use as a prefix for the "prerelease" part of
a semver. Like the rc
in 1.2.0-rc.8
.
sign-git-tag
- Default: false
- Type: Boolean
If set to true, then the npm version
command will tag the version using
-s
to add a signature.
Note that git requires you to have set up GPG keys in your git configs for this to work properly.
workspace
- Default:
- Type: String (can be set multiple times)
Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces of the current project while filtering by running only the workspaces defined by this configuration option.
Valid values for the workspace
config are either:
- Workspace names
- Path to a workspace directory
- Path to a parent workspace directory (will result in selecting all workspaces within that folder)
When set for the npm init
command, this may be set to the folder of a
workspace which does not yet exist, to create the folder and set it up as a
brand new workspace within the project.
This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
workspaces
- Default: null
- Type: null or Boolean
Set to true to run the command in the context of all configured workspaces.
Explicitly setting this to false will cause commands like install
to
ignore workspaces altogether. When not set explicitly:
- Commands that operate on the
node_modules
tree (install, update, etc.) will link workspaces into thenode_modules
folder. - Commands that do other things (test, exec, publish, etc.) will operate on the root project, unless one or more workspaces are specified in theworkspace
config.
This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
include-workspace-root
- Default: false
- Type: Boolean
Include the workspace root when workspaces are enabled for a command.
When false, specifying individual workspaces via the workspace
config, or
all workspaces via the workspaces
flag, will cause npm to operate only on
the specified workspaces, and not on the root project.
Description
Run this in a package directory to bump the version and write the new data
back to package.json
, package-lock.json
, and, if present,
npm-shrinkwrap.json
.
The newversion
argument should be a valid semver string, a valid second
argument to semver.inc (one
of patch
, minor
, major
, prepatch
, preminor
, premajor
,
prerelease
), or from-git
. In the second case, the existing version will
be incremented by 1 in the specified field. from-git
will try to read
the latest git tag, and use that as the new npm version.
If run in a git repo, it will also create a version commit and tag. This
behavior is controlled by git-tag-version
(see below), and can be
disabled on the command line by running npm --no-git-tag-version version
.
It will fail if the working directory is not clean, unless the -f
or
--force
flag is set.
If supplied with -m
or --message
config option, npm will use it as a
commit message when creating a version commit. If the message
config
contains %s
then that will be replaced with the resulting version number.
For example:
npm version patch -m "Upgrade to %s for reasons"
If the sign-git-tag
config is set, then the tag will be signed using the
-s
flag to git. Note that you must have a default GPG key set up in your
git config for this to work properly. For example:
$ npm config set sign-git-tag true
$ npm version patch
You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user: "isaacs (http://blog.izs.me/) <i@izs.me>"
2048-bit RSA key, ID 6C481CF6, created 2010-08-31
Enter passphrase:
If preversion
, version
, or postversion
are in the scripts
property
of the package.json, they will be executed as part of running npm version
.
The exact order of execution is as follows:
- Check to make sure the git working directory is clean before we get
started. Your scripts may add files to the commit in future steps.
This step is skipped if the
--force
flag is set. - Run the
preversion
script. These scripts have access to the oldversion
in package.json. A typical use would be running your full test suite before deploying. Any files you want added to the commit should be explicitly added usinggit add
. - Bump
version
inpackage.json
as requested (patch
,minor
,major
, etc). - Run the
version
script. These scripts have access to the newversion
in package.json (so they can incorporate it into file headers in generated files for example). Again, scripts should explicitly add generated files to the commit usinggit add
. - Commit and tag.
- Run the
postversion
script. Use it to clean up the file system or automatically push the commit and/or tag.
Take the following example:
{
"scripts": {
"preversion": "npm test",
"version": "npm run build && git add -A dist",
"postversion": "git push && git push --tags && rm -rf build/temp"
}
}
This runs all your tests and proceeds only if they pass. Then runs your
build
script, and adds everything in the dist
directory to the commit.
After the commit, it pushes the new commit and tag up to the server, and
deletes the build/temp
directory.
