Workflow question

[supakeen]

Hey, thank you! poetry-dynamic-versioning is exactly the way I'd have expected things to work. I'll be using that and probably taking a look at it to add the 'replace placeholder in files' myself.

If I have any questions I'll contact you there, thanks again.

Hello! I don't think you should commit the changes to pyproject.toml and _version.py. The committed values would just be placeholders like 0.0.0, since ultimately you only need the real version in the published artifacts. All you need is a script like an Invoke task to do something like this:

from invoke import task
from dunamai import Version

@task
def build(ctx):
    version = Version.from_git().serialize()
    ctx.run("echo __version__ = '{}' > _version.py".format(version))
    ctx.run("poetry version {}".format(version))
    ctx.run("poetry build")
    ctx.run("git checkout -- .")

Then the workflow would be:

• Make the tag.
• Run invoke build instead of poetry build to create an artifact with the new version.

Since you're using Poetry specifically, you may want to check out poetry-dynamic-versioning (I'm also the author). It doesn't currently create/modify _version.py, but I do plan to add that. Right now, it just sets the version in pyproject.toml during packaging and then reverts it after.
