Get-FixVersion

Parse the specified version and create a fix version when needed.

Syntax

Get-FixVersion `
    -Version <String> `
    [-OnlyFixBelowVersion <String>] `
    [-AppendRevisionLength <Int32>] `
    [-NuspecFile <String>]

Description

When a 4-part version number is used by the software authors, there may be a little hard at times to push out an updated version by manually creating the fix version. This script helps out with this when both a 4-part version is used, and when a prerelease have been passed.

Notes

While the parameter NuspecFile accepts globbing patterns, it is expected to only match a single file.

Aliases

None

Examples

Example 1

Get-FixVersion -Version '24.0.0.195'

will output 24.0.0.19501 if the nuspec version is equal to 24.0.0.195 or 24.0.0.19500 and $global:au_Force is set to $true

Example 2

Get-FixVersion -Version '5.0-beta'

will output 5.0-beta-20171123 (the current date)

Inputs

None

Outputs

Will output the full version number with a fix number when a 4-part version have been specified.

Will append the date to any pre-release versions.

Will just return the same version number if no fix is needed, or when the version number isn't a 4-part version.

Required Parameters

-Version <String>

The version number to parse for a fix version

Optional Parameters

-OnlyFixBelowVersion <String>

The version to stop adding fix versions to (in case of padding revision number)

-AppendRevisionLength <Int32>

The number of zeros to append the revision number with, before adding the fix number (defaults to 1).

-NuspecFile <String>

The nuspec metadata file to parse for the existing version information (defaults to '.*.nuspec')
