<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 [&lt;newversion&gt; | major | minor | patch]</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 the package.json file.</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 &quot;patch&quot;, &quot;minor&quot;, or
&quot;major&quot;). 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.</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 &quot;Upgrade to %s for reasons&quot;</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
