version

Overview ¶

Package version reports the build version of the akari binaries.

Both akari and akari-server print this through their `version` command (and the `--version` flag). The value is resolved with the same precedence the release pipeline relies on:

1. An explicit ldflags override. Release CI builds with -ldflags "-X github.com/jssblck/akari/internal/version.Version=v1.2.3" so the reported version is exactly the release tag, regardless of how the repository was cloned.
2. Otherwise the VCS revision the Go toolchain embeds in the binary (debug.ReadBuildInfo), so a plain `go build` still reports the commit it was built from with a "-dirty" suffix for uncommitted changes.
3. Otherwise "dev", for a build with no version override and no embedded VCS stamp (for example `go run` against a source tree with no .git).
