A lightweight, minimalist workflow addon for Godot 4 that takes the friction out of keeping your project's version numbers up to date. It allows you to increment your project's Semantic Versioning (SemVer) with a single click directly from the editor UI.

Whenever you bump a version, the addon automatically updates the application/config/version property in your project.godot file, ensuring your exported builds always have the correct version string.

Features

• One-Click SemVer: Instantly increment Major, Minor, or Patch (Bug) version numbers.
• Automatic Project Syncing: Reads and writes directly to Godot's built-in application/config/version project setting.
• Multiple Display Modes: Choose the UI layout that fits your workflow best:
  • Dock Mode: A standard editor dock panel displaying the current version and three clearly labeled buttons.
  • Embed Top: A hyper-minimalist, zero-padding UI injected directly into Godot's top toolbar. It uses minimal screen real estate while keeping your version numbers visible at all times.
• Zero Clutter: Designed with Godot's native UI themes in mind to feel seamlessly integrated.

Installation

1. Download the addon and extract the version_bumper folder into your project's res://addons/ directory.
2. Open your project in the Godot Editor.
3. Go to Project > Project Settings > Plugins.
4. Find Version Bumper in the list and check the Enable box.

Usage

Once enabled, the Version Bumper will appear in the top-right dock by default.
