Okay, after several hours of trying:
Josef said "I wouldn't try to attach a file to it, although you technically could.": https://x.com/strzibnyj/status/1845363108765671713 My solution is the following now: Placing a JSON string into ENV and reading it into the admin dashboard: module DeployedVersionHelper
def read_build_info
# Default to empty JSON string if BUILD_INFO is not set
build_info = ENV.fetch("BUILD_INFO", "{}")
JSON.parse(build_info)
rescue JSON::ParserError, Errno::ENOENT => e
{
contents: build_info,
error: e.to_s
}
end
endThis gets called from the gitlab CI, but also in a post-commit hook: generate_build_info.sh https://gist.github.com/tillcarlos/7a9944a186e0b0c0df04223a496f9961 I deploy with this command: If someone wants more details, I'm happy to share. Right now, I'd consider this as closed. Thanks everyone! |

Hello all
Showing the version of the current deployment makes debugging easier. It gives testers confidence that they are working on the correct version.
My Main Question: What's the best practice to achieve this?
I am trying to find an elegant way to do this. What does work for me is this:
What's a bit hard is this:
Has anyone seen a great solution that we can adopt as a semi standard for all our deployments?
