NBNS

This package (node-build-number-simplified, abbreviated as "NBNS") is build upon node-build-number , which updates the package.json of your project with build information. Different from the original package, NBNS simplifies the metadata.

You only need to add the nbns cli command to your build steps to have the build info updated, and the build number incremented.

"scripts": {
    "build": "nbns && npm run project-dist-task"
}

Example of build metadata in package.json

"build": {
    "number": 4,
    "timestamp": "6/16/2020, 8:24:38 PM"
