Version

The version command shows existing build and git info by integrating into Boot’s BuildProperties and GitProperties if those exist in the shell application. By default, only version information is shown, and you can enable other information through configuration options.

The relevant settings are under spring.shell.command.version, where you can use enabled to disable a command and, optionally, define your own template with template. You can use the show-build-artifact, show-build-group, show-build-name, show-build-time, show-build-version, show-git-branch, show-git-commit-id, show-git-short-commit-id and show-git-commit-time commands to control fields in a default template.

The template defaults to classpath:template/version-default.st, and you can define your own, as the following example shows:

This setting would output something like the following:

You can add the following attributes to the default template rendering: buildVersion, buildGroup, buildGroup, buildName, buildTime, gitShortCommitId, gitCommitId, gitBranch, and gitCommitTime.
