Deployed Version Laravel

This package helps with determining which version of your app is currently running. This is useful during a deploy, to see when it is finished, and also when you rollback to ensure that the correct version is loaded.

Installation

Add the package to your Laravel project.

composer require krisell/deployed-version-laravel

The package is configured for automatic discovery, so unless you have other settings, you do not need to manually add the service provider.

Usage

The package adds a route /version which displays the value of the environment-variable VERSION.

You need to set the value of this variable during your build or deploy process.

VERSION=YOUR_VERSION_VALUE

One way to achieve this is to run the following script, which uses the git hash as the version number, but you may do it however you like:

echo "VERSION=$(git -C gitdir rev-parse HEAD)" >> .env.current-build

.env.current-build refers to a copy of the .env-file, to ensure that the addition is not persistent.
