Action - Semantic Versioning

Calculate a semantic version using GitVersion. The version calculated will be based on the tags and git history.

Usage

You can use your own configuration file as in the example below, or you can just use a plain version of the action to quickly generate a simple version.

Using the default and below configuration you can bump the major version by creating a commit message like this.

git commit -am "+semver: major | Update to node 21"

Outputs

Name	Example
Major	0, 1, 2, 3
FullSemVer	1.0.0, 0.3.0-alpha.2, 0.3.0-feat-add-kitties.0

Examples

Basic usage of the composite action without any parameters.

jobs:
  versioning:
    name: Determine
    uses: suspectsoftware/action-semantic-versioning/.github/workflows/main.yml@v1

This example shows how to implement the action with a custom configuration and use the output.

jobs:
  versioning:
    name: Determine
    uses: suspectsoftware/action-semantic-versioning/.github/workflows/main.yml@v1
    with:
      configFilePath: .github/gitversion.yml

  Build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    needs: 
      - Versioning
    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v2

      - name: Print
        run: |
          echo ${{ needs.Versioning.outputs.Major }}
