cargo-semver is a cargo subcommand to help you update the version in your Cargo.toml file.
```console $ cargo semver 1.0.0
$ cargo semver bump patch 1.0.1 ```
Important: Running this CLI writes to
Cargo.toml. Make sure to validate the version before commit.
console
$ cargo install cargo-semver
console
$ cargo semver # gets the current version
$ cargo semver bump [TYPE] [PRE-RELEASE] # bumps the version
$ cargo set [VERSION] # sets a specific version
You can update the version in your Cargo.toml file using one of the subcommands:
```console $ cargo semver bump major 2.0.0
$ cargo semver bump minor 2.1.0
$ cargo semver bump patch 2.1.1
$ cargo semver bump pre alpha 2.1.1-alpha.1 ```
If you want to bump the version and add a pre-release version:
console
$ cargo semver bump major alpha
2.0.0-alpha.1
There are multiple ways of updating the pre-release version:
```console $ cargo semver bump major alpha 2.0.0-alpha.1
$ cargo semver bump pre alpha 2.0.0-alpha.2
$ cargo semver bump pre 2.0.0-alpha.3
$ cargo semver bump pre beta 2.0.0-beta.1 ```
If you want to set an exact version, use the set command:
console
$ cargo semver set 2.1.3-beta.3
2.1.3-beta.3
