🔍 get-version.sh

This script retrieves the current version of the application from a specified version file. If the file is not found or is invalid, it provides a fallback version based on the current date.

Operations

The script performs the following steps:

  • Base setup:
    • Identifies the script's directory and the project root directory.
    • Loads environment variables from a .env file, if available.
  • Version file path:
    • The VERSION_FILE_PATH variable is set from the environment or defaults to ./src/api/__version__.py if not provided.
  • Retrieve version:
    • If the file specified by VERSION_FILE_PATH exists:
      • Extracts the version value from the __version__ variable in the file using grep, awk, and tr.
      • Exits with status code 2 if the version cannot be retrieved.
    • If the file does not exist:
      • Sets a fallback version in the format 0.0.0-YYMMDD (current UTC date).
  • Output version:
    • Prints the retrieved or fallback version to the console.

Usage

To execute the script, run the following command:

./get-version.sh

This script can be used to conveniently fetch the version. It is used by the bump-version.sh script to retrieve the current version before incrementing it.
