title: npm-version
section: 1
description: Bump a package version
---

### Synopsis

alias: verison
```

### Configuration

#### `allow-same-version`

* Default: false
* Type: Boolean

Prevents throwing an error when `npm version` is used to set the new version
to the same value as the current version.

#### `commit-hooks`

* Default: true
* Type: Boolean

Run git commit hooks when using the `npm version` command.

#### `git-tag-version`

* Default: true
* Type: Boolean

Tag the commit when using the `npm version` command. Setting this to false
results in no commit being made at all.

#### `json`

* Default: false
* Type: Boolean

Whether or not to output JSON data, rather than the normal output.

* In `npm pkg set` it enables parsing set values with JSON.parse() before
  saving them to your `package.json`.

Not supported by all npm commands.

#### `preid`

* Default: ""
* Type: String

The "prerelease identifier" to use as a prefix for the "prerelease" part of
a semver. Like the `rc` in `1.2.0-rc.8`.

#### `sign-git-tag`

* Default: false
* Type: Boolean

If set to true, then the `npm version` command will tag the version using
`-s` to add a signature.

Note that git requires you to have set up GPG keys in your git configs for
this to work properly.

#### `save`

* Default: `true` unless when using `npm update` where it defaults to `false`
* Type: Boolean

Save installed packages to a `package.json` file as dependencies.

When used with the `npm rm` command, removes the dependency from
`package.json`.

Will also prevent writing to `package-lock.json` if set to `false`.

#### `workspace`

* Default:
* Type: String (can be set multiple times)

Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces of the
current project while filtering by running only the workspaces defined by
this configuration option.

Valid values for the `workspace` config are either:

* Workspace names
* Path to a workspace directory
* Path to a parent workspace directory (will result in selecting all
  workspaces within that folder)

When set for the `npm init` command, this may be set to the folder of a
workspace which does not yet exist, to create the folder and set it up as a
brand new workspace within the project.

This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.

#### `workspaces`

* Default: null
* Type: null or Boolean

Set to true to run the command in the context of **all** configured
workspaces.

Explicitly setting this to false will cause commands like `install` to
ignore workspaces altogether. When not set explicitly:

- Commands that operate on the `node_modules` tree (install, update, etc.)
will link workspaces into the `node_modules` folder. - Commands that do
other things (test, exec, publish, etc.) will operate on the root project,
_unless_ one or more workspaces are specified in the `workspace` config.

This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.

#### `workspaces-update`

* Default: true
* Type: Boolean

If set to true, the npm cli will run an update after operations that may
possibly change the workspaces installed to the `node_modules` folder.

#### `include-workspace-root`

* Default: false
* Type: Boolean

Include the workspace root when workspaces are enabled for a command.

When false, specifying individual workspaces via the `workspace` config, or
all workspaces via the `workspaces` flag, will cause npm to operate only on
the specified workspaces, and not on the root project.

This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.

#### `ignore-scripts`

* Default: false
* Type: Boolean

If true, npm does not run scripts specified in package.json files.

Note that commands explicitly intended to run a particular script, such as
`npm start`, `npm stop`, `npm restart`, `npm test`, and `npm run` will still
run their intended script if `ignore-scripts` is set, but they will *not*
run any pre- or post-scripts.

### Description

Run this in a package directory to bump the version and write the new data back to `package.json`, `package-lock.json`, and, if present,
`npm-shrinkwrap.json`.

The `newversion` argument should be a valid semver string, a valid second argument to [semver.inc](https://github.com/npm/node-semver#functions) (one of `patch`, `minor`, `major`, `prepatch`, `preminor`, `premajor`, `prerelease`), or `from-git`.
In the second case, the existing version will be incremented by 1 in the specified field.
`from-git` will try to read the latest git tag, and use that as the new npm version.

**Note:** If the current version is a prerelease version, `patch` will simply remove the prerelease suffix without incrementing the patch version number. For example, `1.2.0-5` becomes `1.2.0` with `npm version patch`, not `1.2.1`.

If run in a git repo, it will also create a version commit and tag.
This behavior is controlled by `git-tag-version` (see below), and can be disabled on the command line by running `npm --no-git-tag-version version`.
It will fail if the working directory is not clean, unless the `-f` or `--force` flag is set.

**Note:** Git integration requires a reasonably recent version of git (2.0.0 or later is recommended). If you encounter issues with git commands, ensure your git installation is up to date.

If supplied with `-m` or [`--message` config](/using-npm/config#message) option, npm will use it as a commit message when creating a version commit.
If the `message` config contains `%s` then that will be replaced with the resulting version number.
For example:

```bash
npm version patch -m "Upgrade to %s for reasons"
```

If the [`sign-git-tag` config](/using-npm/config#sign-git-tag) is set, then the tag will be signed using the `-s` 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:

```bash
$ npm config set sign-git-tag true
$ npm version patch

You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for user: "isaacs (http://blog.izs.me/) <i@izs.me>"
2048-bit RSA key, ID 6C481CF6, created 2010-08-31

Enter passphrase:
```

If `preversion`, `version`, or `postversion` are in the `scripts` property of the package.json, they will be executed as part of running `npm version`.

The exact order of execution is as follows:

1. Check to make sure the git working directory is clean before we get started.
   Your scripts may add files to the commit in future steps.
   This step is skipped if the `--force` flag is set.
2. Run the `preversion` script.
   These scripts have access to the old `version` in package.json.
   A typical use would be running your full test suite before deploying.
   Any files you want added to the commit should be explicitly added using `git add`.
3. Bump `version` in `package.json` as requested (`patch`, `minor`, `major`, etc).
4. Run the `version` script.
   These scripts have access to the new `version` in package.json (so they can incorporate it into file headers in generated files for example).
   Again, scripts should explicitly add generated files to the commit using `git add`.
5. Commit and tag.
6. Run the `postversion` script.
   Use it to clean up the file system or automatically push the commit and/or tag.

Take the following example:

```json
{
  "scripts": {
    "preversion": "npm test",
    "version": "npm run build && git add -A dist",
    "postversion": "git push && git push --tags && rm -rf build/temp"
  }
}
```

This runs all your tests and proceeds only if they pass.
Then runs your `build` script, and adds everything in the `dist` directory to the commit.
After the commit, it pushes the new commit and tag up to the server, and deletes the `build/temp` directory.
