Changelog2version

Update version info file with latest changelog version entry

---

General

Create version info files based on the latest changelog entry.

Installation

pip install changelog2version

Usage

This example shows you how to parse the repo's changelog and update the package version file with that version.

changelog2version \
    --changelog_file changelog.md \
    --version_file src/changelog2version/version.py \
    --debug

Advanced

Custom regular expressions

To extract a version line from a given changelog file with an alternative regex, the version_line_regex argument can be used as shown below. The expression is validated during the CLI argument parsing

changelog2version \
    --changelog_file changelog.md \
    --version_file src/changelog2version/version.py \
    --version_line_regex "^\#\# \[\d{1,}[.]\d{1,}[.]\d{1,}\]" \
    --debug

Same applies for a custom semver line regex in order to extract the semantic version part from a full version line, use the semver_line_regex argument to adjust the regular expression to your needs.
