v2.0.1

Documentation

Detailed documentation of the plugin can be viewed at https://figuretechnologies.github.io/gradle-semver-plugin.

Important

Is is recommended to use v2.0.1 over v2.0.0 due to a critical bug fix for GitHub Actions.

Breaking changes since v1

• Plugin id changed from com.figure.gradle.semver-plugin to just com.figure.gradle.semver
• The version and version tag output have been moved from build/semver/version.txt to build/semver/semver.properties
• Removed all tasks
  • currentSemver - just invoke ./gradlew on its own to see the version
  • generateVersionFile - done automatically now
  • createAndPushVersionTag - use other methods to create and push version tags

v1 Problems Addressed

• Inability to build without initializing git repository
• Inability to build when merging, rebasing, reverting, bisecting, cherry-picking, and being in detached head state
• Incorrect version calculation in some scenarios (this may have happened when remote branch was deleted but building on local branch)
• Inability to set alternate initial version (the option was there but it didn't work)
• Inability to build without an initial tag

Features Added Since v1

• Support for stages (rc, beta, stable, SNAPSHOT, etc.)
• Support for specifying alternate development and main branch names
• Branching strategy inference
• Support for building with build metadata (appends current date and time to the version)
• Zero config support (in most cases, there's no need to do anything but apply the plugin)
• Complete documentation to explain how to use the included and optional gradle properties
