App version labels for bug tracking / testing. Howto?

Hi, I’d like to label each deployment of my meteor app with a version label. This way I can coordinate bug tracking and testing. “FIXED in v???”, “regression in v???”, etc.

What’s the simplest thing that could possibly work?

Thanks!

Mike

Assuming you’re using a revision control system, you could leverage tags or versions from your system, exposing them in your app. For example, if you’re using git you could use git tags. You could have the current tag pulled into your app at build/deployment time somehow, then display that tag somewhere (maybe in a hidden footer comment). Here’s a package that might help: rzymek:app-version

Hey @hwillson this is great. thanks! I’m not using git tags, but I can hack this up easy peasy.

Thanks :slight_smile:
