How to get the current version of the application?

[LucasJanin]

Hi,

I'm working on an Ansible role to update the container installed by the Community Scripts ProxmoxVE.
This role will create a snapshot, set the resources, update, and reapply the previous settings.

For this, I need to obtain the current version of the application.
The file /opt/*/.version is only available for a few containers.
Is there an easy way to find out the current version?

Thanks

also /opt/*/.version not true

Hi @tremor021,

I didn't check the complete repository of the scripts, only the LXC I'm using.
Based on my investigation the file is "/opt/*_version.txt"

TASK [ansible-role-community-script-proxmoxve-update : Read file content] ***********************************************************************************************************************
skipping: [npm]
skipping: [uptime]
skipping: [vaultwarden]
skipping: [zabbix]
skipping: [beszel]
skipping: [komodo]
skipping: [openwebui]
ok: [pocketid] => (item=/opt/PocketID_version.txt)
ok: [homepage] => (item=/opt/Homepage_version.txt)
ok: [semaphore] => (item=/opt/Semaphore_version.txt)
ok: [authentik] => (item=/opt/Authentik_version.txt)
ok: [hoarder] => (item=/opt/Hoarder_version.txt)

I assume this will be the location for the updated script version.
So, I plan to create this file after this first update if it didn't exist.

Any other subjection?
Thanks

This would find the files i suppose, but you can not run the update script without input, just as a heads up.

Hi @michelroegl-brunner,
Sorry, I'm not sure I understand you.
For example, Vaultwarden and Beszel scripts can process an update without needing the "/opt/*_version.txt" file.
Thanks for your clarification.

[michelroegl-brunner]

You are right regarding the path i wanted to tell you. :)
