What it does

Auto Inject Version (AIV) can:

  • inject version from package.json into every bundle file as a comment ( at the top )
  • inject version from package.json into any place in your HTML by special tag [AIV]{version}[/AIV]
  • inject version from package.json into any place in CSS/JS file by special tag [AIV]{version}[/AIV]
  • auto increase package.json version by --env.major, --env.minor, --env.patch passed into webpack

How to use

It's easy to set it up, all you need is:

  • use WebpackAutoInject in webpack plugins
  • pass config as a parameter, or leave it blank as all options are "on" by default.

Example ( in webpack.conf.js )

var WebpackAutoInject = require('webpack-auto-inject-version');
...
module.exports = {
    ...
    plugins: [
        new WebpackAutoInject({
            // options
            // example:
            components: {
                AutoIncreaseVersion: false
            }
        })
    ]
}

Available options

components.AutoIncreaseVersion

Auto increase package.json number.
This option requires extra argument to be sent to webpack build.
It happens before anything else to make sure that your new version is injected into your files.
Arguments: --env.major --env.minor --env.patch

Example for package.json run type, npm run start => ( 1.2.10 to 2.0.0 )

 "version" : "1.2.10",
 "scripts": {
    "start": "webpack --env.major"
 }

Default: true

components.InjectByTag

components.InjectAsComment

This will inject your version as a comment into any css,js,html file.
