<h1><a href="../cli/npm-version.html">npm-version</a></h1> <p>Bump a package version</p>
<h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>
<pre><code>npm version [<newversion> | major | minor | patch | premajor | preminor | prepatch | prerelease]
</code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p>Run this in a package directory to bump the version and write the new
data back to <code>package.json</code> and, if present, <code>npm-shrinkwrap.json</code>.</p>
<p>The <code>newversion</code> argument should be a valid semver string, <em>or</em> a
valid second argument to semver.inc (one of "patch", "minor", "major",
"prepatch", "preminor", "premajor", "prerelease"). In the second case,
the existing version will be incremented by 1 in the specified field.</p>
<p>If run in a git repo, it will also create a version commit and tag, and fail if
the repo is not clean. This behavior is controlled by <code>git-tag-version</code> (see
below), and can be disabled on the command line by running <code>npm
--no-git-tag-version version</code></p>
<p>If supplied with <code>--message</code> (shorthand: <code>-m</code>) config option, npm will
use it as a commit message when creating a version commit. If the
<code>message</code> config contains <code>%s</code> then that will be replaced with the
resulting version number. For example:</p>
<pre><code>npm version patch -m "Upgrade to %s for reasons"
</code></pre><p>If the <code>sign-git-tag</code> config is set, then the tag will be signed using
the <code>-s</code> 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:</p>
<pre><code>$ npm config set sign-git-tag true
$ npm version patch

</code></pre><p>If "preversion", "version", "postversion" in the "scripts" property of
the package.json, it will execute by running <code>npm version</code>. preversion
and version ware executed before bump the package version, postversion
was executed after bump the package version. For example to run <code>npm version</code>
after passed all test:</p>
<pre><code>"scripts": { "preversion": "npm test" }
</code></pre><h2 id="configuration">CONFIGURATION</h2>
