Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Build Status

grunt-simple-bump


Super simple version bump for grunt.

grunt-simple-bump is a super simple version bumping utility. no fancy stuff, minimal as possiable, just bump a version;

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.2

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-simple-bump --save-dev

Add this line to your project's Gruntfile.coffee:

grunt.loadNpmTasks 'grunt-simple-bump'

The "simple_bump" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named simple_bump.

grunt.initConfig({
  simple_bump: {
    files: ['package.json', 'component.json', 'somefile.txt']
  }
});
    

Usage

grunt simple_bump

By default, the build version is bumped. if buildmeta suffix is not passed than the buildmeta is treated as a number and will be incremented automatically. You can specify a different release type bump in 1st argument:

grunt simple_bump:[releaseType]

And the build meta suffix in 2nd argument:

grunt simple_bump:[releaseType]:[buildmeta]

Available release types are:

  • major: Will bump the major x.0.0 part of a version string.
  • minor: Will bump the minor 0.x.0 part of a version string.
  • patch: Will bump the patch 0.0.x part of a version string.
  • prerelease: Will bump the prerelease 0.0.0-x part of a version string.
  • build: Tells bumpup that you are changing only the buildmeta suffix and nothing else should be modified.

Full possible version format: major.minor.patch-prerelease+buildmeta The prerelease part is appended only in prerelease bump type, and removed when present in major, minor, or patch bumps.

The buildmeta suffix has to be passed manually:

grunt simple_bump:[releaseType]:123
