## Semantic version generator
[![Docker image build.](https://github.com/lukaszraczylo/semver-generator/actions/workflows/release.yaml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/lukaszraczylo/semver-generator/actions/workflows/release.yaml) ![GitHub release (latest by date)](https://img.shields.io/github/v/release/lukaszraczylo/semver-generator) [![codecov](https://codecov.io/gh/lukaszraczylo/semver-generator/branch/main/graph/badge.svg?token=FY9BKETB59)](https://codecov.io/gh/lukaszraczylo/semver-generator)
Project created overnight, to prove that management of semantic versioning is NOT painful and do not require arguments and debates within the team. Simple, clean and only thing the project team should need to agree to are the keywords.

### How does it work
* Binary clones the github repository
* Iterates through the list of commits looking for the keywords specified in config file for additional bumps of versions
* Returns the semantic version which can be included in the release
### Usage
#### Authentication
If you intend to use this project with remote repositories ( regardless of them being private or public ) you need to authenticate with your repository.
To do so you can utilise the following environment variables ( they are NOT github specific, for other providers you can use the password )
```bash
export GITHUB_USERNAME=lukaszraczylo
export GITHUB_TOKEN=yourPersonalApiToken
```
#### As a binary
You can download latest versions of the binaries from the [release page](https://github.com/lukaszraczylo/semver-generator/releases/latest).
**Supported OS and architectures:**
Darwin ARM64/AMD64, Linux ARM64/AMD64, Windows AMD64
```bash
bash$ ./semver-gen generate -r https://github.com/nextapps-de/winbox
SEMVER 9.0.10
bash$ ./semver-gen generate -l
SEMVER 5.1.1
```
**Local repository flag `-l` will always take precedence over remote repository URL**
```yaml
Usage:
semver-gen generate [flags]
semver-gen [command]
Available Commands:
generate Generates semantic version
help Help about any command
Flags:
-c, --config string Path to config file (default "semver.yaml")
-d, --debug Enable debug mode
-h, --help help for semver-gen
-l, --local Use local repository
-r, --repository string Remote repository URL. (default "https://github.com/lukaszraczylo/simple-gql-client")
-v, --version Display version
```
#### As a github action
```yaml
jobs:
prepare:
name: Preparing build context
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
outputs:
RELEASE_VERSION: ${{ steps.semver.outputs.semantic_version }}
steps:
- name: Checkout repo
uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
fetch-depth: '0'
- name: Semver run
id: semver
uses: lukaszraczylo/semver-generator@PLACE_LATEST_TAG_HERE
# you can also use v1 tag which _should_ automatically upgrade to latest
# uses: lukaszraczylo/semver-generator@v1
with:
config_file: semver.yaml
# either...
repository_local: true
# or...
repository_url: https://github.com/lukaszraczylo/simple-gql-client
# when using remote repository, especially with private one:
github_username: lukaszraczylo
github_token: MySupeRSecr3tPa$$w0rd
- name: Semver check
run: |
echo "Semantic version detected: ${{ steps.semver.outputs.semantic_version }}"
```
#### As a docker container
```bash
docker pull ghcr.io/lukaszraczylo/semver-generator:latest
```
**Docker supported architectures:**
Linux/arm64, Linux/amd64
#### Calculations example
* 0.0.1 - PATCH - starting commit
* 0.0.2 - PATCH - another commit
* 0.0.4 - PATCH - another commit with word 'Update' => DOUBLE increment PATCH
* 0.1.0 - MINOR - after commit with word 'Change' => increment MINOR, reset PATCH
* 0.1.1 - PATCH - additional commit
* 1.0.1 - MAJOR - commit with word 'BREAKING' = > INCREMENT MAJOR, reset MINOR
* 1.0.2 - PATCH - another commit
#### Example configuration
```yaml
version: 1
force:
major: 1
minor: 0
patch: 1
commit: 69fbe2df696f40281b9104ff073d26186cde1024
wording:
patch:
- update
- initial
minor:
- add
- change
- improve
major:
- breaking
- the # For testing purposes
```
* `version`: is not respected at the moment, introduced for potential backwards compatibility in future
* `force`: sets the "starting" version, you don't need to specify this section as the default is always `0`
* `force.commit`: allows you to set commit hash from which the calculations should start
* `wording`: words the program should look for in the git commits to increment (patch|minor|major)
### Good to know
* Word matching uses fuzzy search AND is case INSENSITIVE
* I do not recommend using common words ( like "the" from the example configuration )
