✨ WordPress Version Bump

This is a custom action to bump version of WordPress plugin/theme. Can be used for PHP files, as well as for style.css (in case of a theme).

Every WordPress theme/plugin is required to have header with all the information, such as title, tagging, author, donate link etc. This action tried to find Version: string inside the header and replace number with a new one. The version string should follow the SemVer standard.

Example

Let's say you have this header:

<?php
/**
 * Gutenberg Block.
 *
 * Plugin Name:          Sixa - Gutenberg Block
 * Description:          Here goes custom description of the plugin
 * Version:              1.0.0
 * Tags:                 block, gutenberg, sixa
 * Author:               sixa AG
 * Author URI:           https://sixa.ch
 * License:              GPLv3 or later
 */

If you run this action with param version set to 1.1.0, it's gonna change header accordingly.

<?php
/**
 * Gutenberg Block.
 *
 * Plugin Name:          Sixa - Gutenberg Block
 * Description:          Here goes custom description of the plugin
 * Version:              1.1.0
 * Tags:                 block, gutenberg, sixa
 * Author:               sixa AG
 * Author URI:           https://sixa.ch
 * License:              GPLv3 or later
 */
