change-assembly-version-plugin

This plugin is up for adoption! We are looking for new maintainers. Visit our Adopt a Plugin initiative for more information.

This plug-in change the [AssemblyVersion] and [AssemblyFileVersion] from AssemblyInfo.cs sources.

Description

The plugin will change the AssemblyVersion of all files named AssemblyInfo.cs (or other inserted) under the workspace folder.
It's recommended use the plugin with the default templates that are generated with visual studio.

Usage

Specify the version you want to change adding the Change assembly version in build step, and putting the version you want in the Assembly version input, like the image below

You can insert a hardcoded version like "1.0.5", but the plugin don't support syntax like 1.0.%someVariable% yet.

If you are attempting to use a version number with variable or regex or other combinations: 

  • %s in "ReplacementPattern" field will be replaced by "Assembly Version" field (uses java format string variables)
  • You can use regex grouping also: 
    • RegexPattern: Assembly(\w*)Version("[0-9*.]+")

    • ReplacementPattern: Assembly$1Version("%s")

This will find both AssemblyVersion and AssemblyFileVersion and replace with the version specified in "Assembly Version" field.
