Display jclouds version
-----------------------
Key: WHIRR-471
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-471
Project: Whirr
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Andrei Savu
Fix For: 0.8.0
It would be useful to also display the jclouds version on "bin/whirr version".
Here is the relevant message from Andrew Phillips on jclouds-dev@:
Issue 802 [1] added a JcloudsVersion class to jclouds/core which can be used to
get version information about jclouds at runtime. It's designed to be used as
follows:
A. From outside jclouds:
------------------------
Obtain a JcloudsVersion instance using JcloudsVersion.get(). Version
information is read from META-INF/jclouds-version.properties
(META-INF/maven/.../pom.properties would have been nice but isn't available
from an IDE) which is included in the jclouds core JAR.
If you need to simulate a different JcloudsVersion for testing purposes, you
can place an overriding META-INF/jclouds-version.properties file in the
classpath (e.g. src/test/resources) with the desired version.
B. From inside jclouds:
-----------------------
Obtain a JcloudsVersion instance using Guice, binding it to
JcloudsVersion.get(). When testing code that uses a JcloudsVersion, override
this binding with an appropriate instance created with new
JcloudsVersion("my-test-version").
Thanks!
