Bumper

Quickstart

Bumper integrates seamlessly into your existing development workflow and CI/CD process.

Here’s how to set it up in a repository with a single package:

  1. Initialize your project with bumper init.
  2. Create a release group with bumper create <name>.
  3. Integrate it into your CI/CD process.

That’s it for the setup phase! Now we move to the bump phase. Any time you make an interesting change that needs to be released:

  1. Create a bump with bumper bump and include it with a pull request (you can also commit it directly if you practice trunk-based development).

Time goes on and you accumulate bumps…

When you’re ready to cut a release:

  1. Run bumper commit which updates the release group version and the changelog.
  2. Merge any changes into your default git branch.
  3. Rinse and repeat!
