== Autoversioning an Application

The APEX utilities project provides means to versioning an application automatically towards the APEX version it is written for.
This is realized by generating a file called `app-version.txt` that includes the Maven project version.
This file is then automatically deployed in the folder `etc` of a full APEX distribution.
The CLI Parser here provides a mthod to access this version for an application.

First, create a new CLI Parser object, add some options (in the example an option for version, but any options will do), then parse the command line:

[source,java,linenums,subs="attributes+"]
----
include::{adsite-tools-common-dir}/test/java/org/onap/policy/apex/tools/common/docs/ExampleAppVersion.java[tags=setupParser,indent=0]
----

Next, we check if the version option was used in the command line and print application name and version if it was used:

[source,java,linenums,subs="attributes+"]
----
include::{adsite-tools-common-dir}/test/java/org/onap/policy/apex/tools/common/docs/ExampleAppVersion.java[tags=processCliVersion,indent=0]
----

The output will be:

[source,sh,subs="attributes+"]
----
myApp {release-version}
----

The auto-version information comes from the method call `cli.getAppVersion()` in line 2 in the example above.
The method is defined in the `CliParser` class as:

[source,java,linenums,subs="attributes+"]
----
include::{adsite-tools-common-dir}/main/java/org/onap/policy/apex/tools/common/CliParser.java[tags=cliParserVersion,indent=0]
----

The file `app-version.txt` is automatically added to an APEX full distribution, as described above (for details on this see the POM files in the APEX application packaging projects).
