APSIM version has changed to 1652 from >3600 #3640

On this page, the version of APSIM has reduced from something >3600 to 1652. Is this normal? Is there any other way to find out the latest 'built' version of APSIM than checking this page?

zur003 commented 5 years ago

Well, it's "normal" in that the number is an Issue number used as a build identifier, rather than a more traditional build number. The numbers are a reflection of when the issue was raised, not of when it was resolved. This can be a bit misleading.

Probably the easiest way to find the latest build is by clicking on the Upgrade button in the ApsimX GUI.

BrianCollinss commented 5 years ago

Thanks @zur003 . But I am using a custom build and that button doesn't work.

BTW, regarding the other issue you asked about, I did not update APSIM before running my simulations. So, I am not sure whether your push would fix that problem.

The latest built version corresponds to the latest source code on the master branch of this repository. To use this on your custom build, just checkout the master branch of this repository and do a git pull.

BrianCollinss commented 5 years ago

I know how to check out the master branch. I am asking this as we use APSIM-NG .deb file to build a singularity to be put on UQ cluster and each time we need to know the last build number. Currently and on the repository, the latest pull request is 3639 and on APSIM.Shared it is 84. But on APSIM website, it is 1652.

You can call a function on our webservice to get the URL to an installer for the latest version. You can pass operating system name as an argument (defaults to Windows):

https://www.apsim.info/APSIM.Builds.Service/Builds.svc/GetURLOfLatestVersion?operatingSystem=Debian

If you want to do this automatically from a bash script, as in the case on your UQ cluster, you could try something like this:

temp_file=$(mktemp)
curl -s https://www.apsim.info/APSIM.Builds.Service/Builds.svc/GetURLOfLatestVersion?operatingSystem=Debian > $temp_file
url=$(sed -e 's/<[^>]*>//g' $temp_file)
echo url=$url

This is going to be helpful. I will test it on Linux. Cheers.
