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 🙏

A tool to manage semantic versioning of JSON files

Readme

VersionVibe

VersionVibe is a powerful npm package designed to manage semantic versioning of JSON files. It allows you to easily update the version property in any JSON file using various methods, including version masking and bumping.

Installation

To install VersionVibe globally, run the following command:

npm install -g version-vibe

Usage

You can use the version-vibe package directly from the command line. Here are the available commands:

Incrementing the Version

  1. Using Masking: Increment the version using a specific mask.

    versionVibe ./path/to/your/manifest.json --x x.x.+3
  2. Bumping the Version: Increment the version by one for major, minor, or patch.

    versionVibe ./path/to/your/manifest.json --bump major
    versionVibe ./path/to/your/manifest.json --bump minor
    versionVibe ./path/to/your/manifest.json --bump patch
  3. Lazy Increment: This will increment the patch version by one with a rolling increment.

    versionVibe ./path/to/your/manifest.json

Command Options

  • --x [versionMask]: Use a version mask to specify how to increment the version. The mask should follow the x.x.x format, where x can be replaced with a number or + to indicate an increment.

  • --bump <major|minor|patch>: Specify which part of the version to increment. This will increment the specified part by one.

  • --help: Display the help message with usage instructions.

Examples

Given a manifest.json file with the following content:

{
  "version": "1.2.3"
}

Running the command:

versionVibe ./manifest.json --bump minor

Will update the version to 1.3.3.

Additional Examples

  • Set the version explicitly:

    versionVibe ./manifest.json --x 2.3.4
  • Bump the major version:

    versionVibe ./manifest.json --bump major
  • Increment the patch version by 3:

    versionVibe ./manifest.json --x x.x.+3

Error Handling

If you do not provide a filename or if the command options are invalid, VersionVibe will throw an error with a message indicating the issue.

Future Enhancements

  • Sync multiple files to the same version.
