When automating the build process for snaps, I'd like to be able to
provide the release version as an argument to snapcraft, which could
then be used as a variable in the snapcraft.yaml.
For example, say I'd like to release "foo" version "1.2.3". I'd then
like to build the snap with version: 1.2.3, and use the git tag
"v1.2.3" in its source. For example:
name: foo
version: ${release-version}
...
parts:
foo:
source: git@...
source-tag: v${release-version}
In 2.16 we are introducing a variable to set this one, it comes from the
`version` defined above.
The alternatives at the moment seem to be:
1. Parse the version out of snapcraft.yaml, using that as the
authoritative release version string. Workable for new projects, but a
tough sell for existing projects with an established release process.
2. Generate the snapcraft.yaml from a template (jinja, for example),
which works but is kind of awkward.
So, how about a ${release-version} variable in snapcraft.yaml, which
you could set on the snapcraft command-line with a --release-version
flag? This would be darn useful for Jenkins CI scripts that build snaps.
What would the version be set to during CI? The version from a snappy
point of view is just a friendly name, the architecture only cares about
revisions.
