Где вы храните номер версии приложения Rails?

моя стратегия заключается в том, чтобы ваши теги VCS делали это за вас (git показано здесь).

добавьте это в ваш application.rb:

# Only attempt update on local machine
if Rails.env.development?
  # Update version file from latest git tag
  File.open('config/version', 'w') do |file|
    file.write `git describe --tags --always` # or equivalent
  end
end

config.version = File.read('config/version')

вы можете получить доступ к версии в любом месте вашего приложения с Rails.configuration.version

мое предпочтение-создать задачу рейка, которая генерирует

# config/initializers/version.rb
VERSION = ["1", "0", "f3d9da7"]

FWIW, моя задача рейка:

task :create_version do
  desc "create VERSION.  Use MAJOR_VERSION, MINOR_VERSION, BUILD_VERSION to override defaults"

  version_file = "#{Rails.root}/config/initializers/version.rb"
  major = ENV["MAJOR_VERSION"] || 1
  minor = ENV["MINOR_VERSION"] || 0
  build = ENV["BUILD_VERSION"] || `git describe --always --tags`
  version_string = "VERSION = #{[major.to_s, minor.to_s, build.strip]}\n"
  File.open(version_file, "w") {|f| f.print(version_string)}
  $stderr.print(version_string)
end

используйте задачу rake для управления автоматизацией через rake, например:https://gist.github.com/muxcmux/1805946

, а затем в config/initializers / version.рубидий: SiteInfo модуль класс приложения

def self.version
  "v#{self.read_version}"
end

def self.read_version
  begin
    File.read 'VERSION'
  rescue
    raise "VERSION file not found or unreadable."
  end
end

лично я предпочитаю добавлять константу в класс приложения.

# file: config/initializers/version.rb
class SomeApp::Application
  Version = '1.0.0'
end

в Rails 4 задача грабли @fearless_fool выше должна выглядеть так:

desc "create VERSION.  Use MAJOR_VERSION, MINOR_VERSION, BUILD_VERSION to override defaults"
task :create_version do
  version_file = "#{Rails.root}/config/initializers/version.rb"
  major = ENV["MAJOR_VERSION"] || 1
  minor = ENV["MINOR_VERSION"] || 0
  build = ENV["BUILD_VERSION"] || `git describe --always --tags`
  version_string = "VERSION = #{[major.to_s, minor.to_s, build.strip]}\n"
  File.open(version_file, "w") {|f| f.print(version_string)}
  $stderr.print(version_string)
end

на desc строка должна присутствовать и должна прийти до на task :create... линия для того, чтобы рейк узнал ее.
