How to avoid adding date revision number to the packageName and nuspec file in force update #253

Closed moh-hassan closed 2 years ago

moh-hassan commented 3 years ago

When run the demo with the command

 $au_Force = $true; .\update.ps1

if nuspec version match the remote version, i.e 5.0.0, au use date as a revision number and attach it to Version and generate package like: copyq.5.0.0.20211117.nupkg

and nuspec version is modified to: <version>5.0.0.20211117</version>

How to avoid adding date revision number in force update?

Use $au_Version.

Thanks for reply. How to use $au_Version. I used it like this :

function global:au_BeforeUpdate {     
    $au_Version='5.0.0'  #todod remove revision number
}

Is it right?

majkinetor commented 3 years ago

$au_Force = $true; $au_version = "5.0.0"; .\update.ps1

I didn't want to pass a fixed value. I want to use the $au_version by dropping the revision number. Is the above script the best use for dropping the revision number?

majkinetor commented 3 years ago

OK, set version in nuspec file to 0.0 programatically before calling update. Then it will never be fixed.

It works. It's fine if there is a parameter -DropRevision to use only x.y.z version (SemVer)
