Quirk with Push and version listing (on Our Umbraco)

[leekelleher]

Hello Umbraco Package Team! 👋

I've been using UmbPack to push updates for my Contentment package for a while now, but I'm getting a niggly feeling that something isn't quite right. I can't put my finger on it, and feels to be so many moving parts and code that I can't figure out if there is an issue with UmbPack or Our Umbraco code.

What's the problem? OK, here goes...

On Our, if I list all "Backoffice Extensions" category. I can see my package Contentment is listed. 🎉 https://our.umbraco.com/packages/?category=Backoffice%20extensions

If I change the version filter to "Version 8". It isn't listed. 🤔 https://our.umbraco.com/packages/?category=Backoffice%20extensions&version=8

Side note, I also notice that Doc Type Grid Editor is missing! That weird! 🤔

I check the other major versions and none of them list my Contentment package. Something odd there. I'm checking all the settings I have available on my project page - I must be doing something wrong, right? What haven't I ticked? 🤔

Then I think, well I am using UmbPack to upload my updated package files. Maybe DTGE is using UmbPack too - unsure. Who else uses it, I think The Matt Brailsford does for Vendr... okay, let's take a look.

Vendr is listed under "Website Utilities" category. "Hey Vendr!" 😆 🤦‍♂️ It's listed, ace! https://our.umbraco.com/packages/?category=Website%20utilities

Change the version filter to "Version 8", and....

...it's not there! Also "MegaNavV8" is missing too... well that's gotta be for v8 right?! Does it use UmbPack? Unsure. 🤔

I had a quick look over the Our Umbraco source-code... but honestly, I got totally lost.

So raising it here, hopefully not to gather dust, but to someone to stumble across at some point and think "you know what, that is a bit weird" and I've not gone completely mad. 😝

I think it's an issue with our @leekelleher - looks to me that the drop-down list for "version 8" is only going to include packages that work from the first version of V8.

For example if you fiddle the URL to the minimum version of Umbraco that your package supports: https://our.umbraco.com/packages/?category=Backoffice%20extensions&version=8.6 - you can see Contentment appears.

Not quite sure what the fix is but I suspect that drop-down really needs to list all minor versions as well as majors, so you can pick the version you are running to see what's compatible.

@AndyButland Thank you for following up on this. I was getting confused with how it worked. Hence clutching at straws with UmbPack.

I wasn't aware that the version querystring parameter could accept minors, interesting.

I'll check on the Our Umbraco repo, see if anyone else has raised this before I post on there. 👍

Thanks again! I'll close off this ticket.
