+# Pipeline Versioning Enhancement
+
+## Overview
+This document describes the automatic version management system implemented in the GitHub Actions pipeline for QuickStocks.
+
+## Purpose
+The pipeline now automatically updates the Maven version in `pom.xml` and the plugin version in `plugin.yml` to match the semantic version being released. This ensures that:
+1. The built artifact is named `QuickStocks-X.X.X.jar` (e.g., `QuickStocks-0.0.1.jar`)
+2. The version in the source code matches the released version
+3. Version updates are committed back to the PR branch
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Semantic Versioning Rules
+The pipeline calculates the next version based on the target branch:
+- **PR to `dev`**: Patch version is incremented (e.g., `v0.0.0` → `v0.0.1`)
+- **PR to `main`**: Minor version is incremented, patch reset (e.g., `v0.0.1` → `v0.1.0`)
+
+### Pipeline Steps
+1. **Compute Next Version**: Analyzes existing tags and target branch to determine next version
+2. **Update pom.xml**: Uses Maven Versions Plugin to update the version
+ ```bash
+ mvn versions:set -DnewVersion=X.X.X -DgenerateBackupPoms=false
+ ```
+3. **Update plugin.yml**: Uses sed to replace the version line
+ ```bash
+ sed -i "s/^version: .*/version: X.X.X/" src/main/resources/plugin.yml
+ ```
+4. **Commit Changes**: Commits both files with message `chore: bump version to X.X.X`
+5. **Push to Branch**: Pushes the commit back to the PR branch
+6. **Build Project**: Builds with the updated version
+7. **Create Release**: Creates a GitHub release with the versioned artifact
+
+## Files Modified by Pipeline
+- `pom.xml` - Maven project version
+- `src/main/resources/plugin.yml` - Bukkit plugin version
+
+## Version Format
+- **Git Tag**: `vX.X.X` (e.g., `v0.0.1`, `v1.0.0`)
+- **Maven/Plugin Version**: `X.X.X` (no 'v' prefix, no -SNAPSHOT suffix)
+- **Artifact Name**: `QuickStocks-X.X.X.jar`
+
+## Example Workflow
+
+### Scenario 1: PR to dev branch
+```
+Current tag: v0.0.0
+PR merged to: dev
+Next version: v0.0.1
+Artifact: QuickStocks-0.0.1.jar
+```
+
+### Scenario 2: PR to main branch
+```
+Current tag: v0.0.1
+PR merged to: main
+Next version: v0.1.0
+Artifact: QuickStocks-0.1.0.jar
+```
+
+## Authentication
+The workflow uses `GITHUB_TOKEN` provided by GitHub Actions with the following permissions:
+- `contents: write` - Required to push commits and create releases
+
+## Git Configuration
+Commits are made using the GitHub Actions bot identity:
+- **User**: `github-actions[bot]`
+- **Email**: `github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com`
+
+## Benefits
+1. **Consistency**: Version in code always matches the release version
+2. **Automation**: No manual version bumping required
+3. **Traceability**: Version updates are tracked in git history
+4. **Correct Artifacts**: JAR files have proper version numbers
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Problem: Push fails with authentication error
+**Solution**: Ensure `token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}` is set in the checkout step
+
+### Problem: Maven versions:set fails
+**Solution**: Check Maven Versions Plugin is available (it's part of standard Maven)
+
+### Problem: Wrong version format
+**Solution**: Verify the version computation logic in the "Compute next semantic version" step
+
+## Development Notes
+- The workflow only runs on pull requests to `dev` or `main` branches
+- Each PR creates a new release with an incremented version
+- The version is computed from existing git tags, not from pom.xml
+- If no tags exist, starts from `v0.0.0`

+# Pipeline Version Automation - Implementation Summary
+
+## Issue Resolution
+**Original Issue**: Pipeline enhancement to automatically commit version updates into Maven so the plugin gets versioned as "QuickStocks-X.X.X.jar" in dev/main branches.
+
+**Status**: ✅ COMPLETED
+
+## Changes Implemented
+
+### 1. Enhanced GitHub Actions Workflow (`.github/workflows/build.yml`)
+Added the following new steps to automate version management:
+
+#### a. Enhanced Version Computation
+- Modified the "Compute next semantic version" step to output both `tag` (with 'v' prefix) and `version` (without prefix)
+- This allows using the version number directly in Maven and plugin.yml
+
+#### b. Update pom.xml Version
+```bash
+mvn -B -ntp versions:set -DnewVersion=$VERSION -DgenerateBackupPoms=false
+```
+- Uses Maven Versions Plugin to update the project version
+- No backup POM files are created (cleaner git history)
+
+#### c. Update plugin.yml Version
+```bash
+sed -i "s/^version: .*/version: $VERSION/" src/main/resources/plugin.yml
+```
+- Uses sed to replace the version line in Bukkit's plugin descriptor
+- Ensures the plugin version matches the Maven version
+
+#### d. Commit and Push Version Changes
+```bash
+git config user.name "github-actions[bot]"
+git config user.email "github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com"
+git add pom.xml src/main/resources/plugin.yml
+git commit -m "chore: bump version to $VERSION"
+git push
+```
+- Commits version changes with a clear commit message
+- Uses GitHub Actions bot identity
+- Pushes changes back to the PR branch
+
+#### e. Enhanced Checkout
+- Added `token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}` for push authentication
+- Added `ref: ${{ github.head_ref }}` to checkout the PR branch (not merge commit)
+
+### 2. Documentation
+
+#### a. PIPELINE_VERSIONING.md
+Comprehensive documentation including:
+- Purpose and overview of the versioning system
+- Semantic versioning rules (dev = patch, main = minor)
+- Detailed step-by-step workflow explanation
+- Example scenarios for both dev and main branches
+- Authentication and git configuration details
+- Troubleshooting guide
+- Development notes
+
+#### b. PIPELINE_WORKFLOW_DIAGRAM.md
+Visual documentation including:
+- Before/after workflow diagrams
+- Semantic versioning logic examples
+- File changes flow visualization
+- Benefits summary
+
+## Workflow Behavior
+
+### For PRs to `dev` branch (Patch Release)
+```
+Current: v0.0.0 → Next: v0.0.1 → Artifact: QuickStocks-0.0.1.jar
+Current: v1.2.3 → Next: v1.2.4 → Artifact: QuickStocks-1.2.4.jar
+```
+
+### For PRs to `main` branch (Minor Release)
+```
+Current: v0.0.1 → Next: v0.1.0 → Artifact: QuickStocks-0.1.0.jar
+Current: v1.2.9 → Next: v1.3.0 → Artifact: QuickStocks-1.3.0.jar
+```
+
+## Benefits Achieved
+
+1. ✅ **Automated Version Management**: No manual version bumping required
+2. ✅ **Consistent Versioning**: Maven, plugin, and artifact versions always match
+3. ✅ **Proper Artifact Names**: JAR files now have semantic version numbers (QuickStocks-X.X.X.jar)
+4. ✅ **Git History**: All version changes tracked in commits
+5. ✅ **Traceability**: Clear audit trail of version increments
+6. ✅ **Zero Manual Intervention**: Fully automated process
+
+## Testing Performed
+
+1. ✅ YAML syntax validated with yamllint
+2. ✅ sed command tested and verified on plugin.yml
+3. ✅ Simulation script created and executed successfully
+4. ✅ Git operations verified
+5. ✅ Documentation reviewed and completed
+
+## Files Modified
+
+1. `.github/workflows/build.yml` - Enhanced with version update automation (20 lines added)
+2. `Documentation/PIPELINE_VERSIONING.md` - Comprehensive versioning guide (91 lines)
+3. `Documentation/PIPELINE_WORKFLOW_DIAGRAM.md` - Visual workflow documentation (108 lines)
+
+**Total Changes**: 219 lines added across 3 files
+
+## Next Steps
+
+When this PR is merged, future PRs will:
+1. Automatically compute the next semantic version
+2. Update pom.xml and plugin.yml to that version
+3. Commit and push those changes back to the PR branch
+4. Build with the correct version
+5. Create a release with correctly named artifacts
+
+## Example Usage
+
+When a developer creates a PR to `dev`:
+1. GitHub Actions runs automatically
+2. Computes next patch version (e.g., v0.0.1)
+3. Updates pom.xml: `0.0.1`
+4. Updates plugin.yml: `version: 0.0.1`
+5. Commits: "chore: bump version to 0.0.1"
+6. Pushes commit to PR branch
+7. Builds: `QuickStocks-0.0.1.jar`
+8. Creates release with tag `v0.0.1` containing `QuickStocks-0.0.1.jar`
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+- Uses standard Maven Versions Plugin (no external dependencies)
+- Uses sed for plugin.yml (available in all Unix/Linux environments)
+- GitHub Actions bot identity used for commits (clean git history)
+- GITHUB_TOKEN provides secure authentication (no secrets needed)
+- Works with both dev and main branches
+- Falls back to v0.0.0 if no tags exist
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+- Uses GitHub's built-in GITHUB_TOKEN (secure)
+- No additional secrets or credentials required
+- Bot commits are clearly identified in git history
+- Only has write access within the workflow context
+
+## Maintenance
+
+The workflow is self-contained and requires no ongoing maintenance. It will:
+- Continue to work as long as Maven Versions Plugin is available
+- Automatically handle version increments based on branch
+- Maintain consistent versioning across all artifacts
+

## Changes Implemented
-### 1. Enhanced GitHub Actions Workflow (`.github/workflows/build.yml`)
-Added the following new steps to automate version management:
-
-#### a. Enhanced Version Computation
-- Modified the "Compute next semantic version" step to output both `tag` (with 'v' prefix) and `version` (without prefix)
+### 1. Split into Two Separate Workflows
+
+#### a. Build CI Workflow (`.github/workflows/build-ci.yml`)
+**Purpose**: Continuous integration - runs on every commit
+**Trigger**:
+- Push or pull request events
+- Only when files in `src/**` are modified
+
+**Steps**:
+1. Checkout repository
+2. Set up Java 21
+3. Build project with Maven
+4. Run tests
+
+**Benefits**:
+- Fast feedback for developers
+- Runs automatically on code changes
+- No unnecessary builds for documentation changes
+
+#### b. Release Workflow (`.github/workflows/release.yml`)
+**Purpose**: Create versioned releases when PRs are merged
+**Trigger**:
+- Pull request closed event (merged only)
+- Target branches: `dev` or `main`
+
+**Steps**:
+1. Checkout base branch (dev or main)
+2. Compute next semantic version
+3. Update pom.xml using Maven Versions Plugin
+4. Update plugin.yml using sed
+5. Commit version changes to base branch
+6. Build project
+7. Create GitHub Release with tag
+
+**Version Computation**:
+- Modified to output both `tag` (with 'v' prefix) and `version` (without prefix)
- This allows using the version number directly in Maven and plugin.yml
-#### b. Update pom.xml Version
+**Update pom.xml Version**:
```bash
mvn -B -ntp versions:set -DnewVersion=$VERSION -DgenerateBackupPoms=false
```
- Uses Maven Versions Plugin to update the project version
- No backup POM files are created (cleaner git history)
-#### c. Update plugin.yml Version
+**Update plugin.yml Version**:
```bash
sed -i "s/^version: .*/version: $VERSION/" src/main/resources/plugin.yml
```
- Uses sed to replace the version line in Bukkit's plugin descriptor
- Ensures the plugin version matches the Maven version
-#### d. Commit and Push Version Changes
+**Commit and Push Version Changes**:
```bash
git config user.name "github-actions[bot]"
git config user.email "github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com"
@@ -38,26 +69,36 @@ git push
```
- Commits version changes with a clear commit message
- Uses GitHub Actions bot identity
-- Pushes changes back to the PR branch
+- Pushes changes to the base branch (dev or main)
-#### e. Enhanced Checkout
+**Enhanced Checkout**:
- Added `token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}` for push authentication
-- Added `ref: ${{ github.head_ref }}` to checkout the PR branch (not merge commit)
+- Uses `ref: ${{ github.event.pull_request.base.ref }}` to checkout the target branch
+- Only runs if PR was merged: `if: github.event.pull_request.merged == true`
+
+### 2. Removed Old Workflow
+- Deleted `.github/workflows/build.yml` (combined workflow)
+- Replaced with two specialized workflows for better separation of concerns
### 2. Documentation
#### a. PIPELINE_VERSIONING.md
Comprehensive documentation including:
-- Purpose and overview of the versioning system
+- Split workflow architecture (Build CI + Release)
+- Purpose and overview of each workflow
- Semantic versioning rules (dev = patch, main = minor)
- Detailed step-by-step workflow explanation
-- Example scenarios for both dev and main branches
+- Example scenarios for both workflows
- Authentication and git configuration details
- Troubleshooting guide
- Development notes
#### b. PIPELINE_WORKFLOW_DIAGRAM.md
Visual documentation including:
+- Current split architecture diagrams
+- Build CI workflow visualization
+- Release workflow visualization
+- Before/after comparison
- Before/after workflow diagrams
- Semantic versioning logic examples
- File changes flow visualization

## Next Steps
-When this PR is merged, future PRs will:
-1. Automatically compute the next semantic version
-2. Update pom.xml and plugin.yml to that version
-3. Commit and push those changes back to the PR branch
-4. Build with the correct version
-5. Create a release with correctly named artifacts
+When this PR is merged, the repository will have:
+1. **Build CI** that runs automatically on source code changes
+2. **Release workflow** that triggers only when PRs are merged to dev/main
+3. Automatic version computation and updates
+4. Properly versioned artifacts in releases
## Example Usage
-When a developer creates a PR to `dev`:
-1. GitHub Actions runs automatically
-2. Computes next patch version (e.g., v0.0.1)
-3. Updates pom.xml: `0.0.1`
-4. Updates plugin.yml: `version: 0.0.1`
-5. Commits: "chore: bump version to 0.0.1"
-6. Pushes commit to PR branch
-7. Builds: `QuickStocks-0.0.1.jar`
-8. Creates release with tag `v0.0.1` containing `QuickStocks-0.0.1.jar`
