v1.2.0

🎉 Version 1.2.0 is now available!

✨ Key highlights

In this release, thanks to @Kamsiy we enabled dynamic styling without the need to rebuild the CLI binary. Both YAML and JSON files are supported. Configure options:

• Enable loading style from environment variable via version.WithPrettyStyleFromEnv("ENV_NAME_FOR_FILE_PATH"),
• Load a style file directly using Go function, version.WithPrettyStyleFile("file_path").

v1.1.0

🎉 Version 1.1.0 is now available!

✨ Key highlights

Extra fields support!

Each project may want to display more information such as documentation or changelog URLs, sometimes even domain related fields.
Now you can provide them using your Go struct! You can also use a brand-new pretty tag to define the field name for Pretty output.

type Custom struct {
    // In the pretty mode, fields are printed in the same order as defined in struct.
    BuiltBy string `json:"builtBy" yaml:"builtBy" pretty:"Built By"`
    RepoURL string `json:"repoURL" yaml:"repoURL" pretty:"Repository URL"`
    DocsURL string `json:"docsURL" yaml:"docsURL" pretty:"Documentation URL"`
}

func main() {
    custom := Custom{
        RepoURL: "https://github.com/mszostok/version",
        DocsURL: "https://szostok.io/projects/version",
        BuiltBy: "GoReleaser",
    }

    info := version.Get()
    info.ExtraFields = custom
// ...

Upgrade notice simplifications

Fetching the release information was changed from GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases/latest to HEAD https://github.com/{owner}/{repo}/releases/latest.

As a result, such call cannot hit rate limits set by GitHub for unauthorized calls. Additionally, I don't create the state file as it's not needed, and the call can be always executed. However, you can still enable caching via upgrade.WithMinElapseTimeForRecheck.

Deprecation

The LookForLatestRelease method is deprecated, will be removed in 1.4.0 release. It's only about naming, see:

Old: LookForLatestRelease(upgrade.LookForLatestReleaseInput{CurrentVersion: currentVersion})
New: LookForGreaterRelease(upgrade.LookForGreaterReleaseInput{CurrentVersion: currentVersion})

Install

To add the version package, run:

go get go.szostok.io/version@v1.1.0

Next visit version.szostok.io/quick-start for the most popular way of the setup.
