Version

The Simple IoT app stores and uses three different version values:

  • App Version
  • OS Version
  • HW Version

The App version is compiled into the application Go binary by the build (see the envsetup.sh file). This version is based on the latest Git tag plus hash if there have been any changes since the tag.

On Linux, the OS version is extracted from the VERSION field in /etc/os-release. The field can be changed using the OS_VERSION_FIELD environment variable.

The versions are displayed in the root node as shown below:
