This one-liner will return the current BASE revision of your working
copy:
svn info | grep Revision | sed s/'Revision: '//
We use this snippet in Checkout to set the CFBundleVersion value in
the Info.plist at build time. We don't use Xcode to build the app,
and there might be a more efficient way to manipulate your Info.plist
than this when you're not running a Python interpreter anyways
already, but adding a custom script like the one below as a build
phase for your target should work (if you're developing on Leopard
that is, if I remember correctly, plistlib was not included with the
Python distribution that shipped with Tiger, but you could install
it):
(set shell to: /usr/bin/python, add your Info.plist to the list of
input files in the "Run Script Phase" window)
# --- begin of script
import plistlib
import os
from sys import argv
plistPath = argv[len(argv) - 1]
plistDict = plistlib.readPlist(plistPath)
currentSVNRevision = os.popen("svn info | grep Revision | sed
s/'Revision: '//").read().strip()
plistDict['CFBundleVersion'] = currentSVNRevision
# working with strings is easy in Python, something like what's below
should help with the short version
shortVersionString = u'MyApp v.1.0, build number %s' %
(currentSVNRevision)
plistDict['CFBundleShortVersionString'] = shortVersionString
# finally, overwrite the old plist file with the modified dictionary
plistlib.writePlist(plistDict, plistPath)
# --- end of script
Written mostly from memory, so fingers crossed that it actually works.
