FAQPage Schema
How do I automate version updates for plugin development?

Automate version updates by detecting modified files and determining the appropriate version increment. This process synchronizes version information across plugin.json, CHANGELOG.md, README.md, marketplace.json, and generated documentation files automatically.

How does automated version bumping decide between a patch or minor increment?

Automated version bumping detects modified files within your plugin to determine the appropriate version increment. It evaluates the scope of changes to decide whether a patch or minor version update is required for the release management process.

What is the best way to synchronize changelog and plugin metadata during a release?

Synchronize changelog and plugin metadata by running an automated version bumping process. This updates plugin.json, CHANGELOG.md, README.md, and marketplace.json simultaneously, ensuring consistent versioning and up-to-date documentation across the plugin ecosystem.

Can I use this automated versioning process with my existing git workflow?

Yes, automated versioning integrates with your git workflow by detecting modified files in your repository. It then automatically applies the correct version increment and updates all related metadata files to maintain consistency.

Do I need any specific dependencies to run this release management automation?

No specific dependencies are required to run this release management automation. The skill operates independently to detect file changes, increment versions, and synchronize documentation without needing external libraries.

Why does my plugin documentation show outdated version numbers after changes?

Plugin documentation shows outdated version numbers when updates are applied manually or skipped across files. Automated version bumping solves this by synchronizing version information across plugin.json, CHANGELOG.md, README.md, and marketplace.json simultaneously.
