Behaviour

When invoked, react-native-set-version will make the following changes to your project files:

$3

The version attribute in package.json will be updated with the specified version.

$3

It will update the version name and the version code in both build.gradle and AndroidManifest.xml.

#### About AndroidManifest.xml

Version information should not be in the AndroidManifest.xml since this information is overridden by build.gradle.

See https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/versioning for further informations.

For that reason react-native-set-version will only write in the AndroidManifest.xml if android:versionCode and/or android:versionName are already in the file.

$3

It will update the CFBundleShortVersionString and the CFBundleVersion in Info.plist.

$3

The Android version code represents your version number as an integer. This
package uses the following format to generate this integer:

`

`

For instance, the first time you call set-version 3.1.4, it will produce the version code 301041.

If you call the command with the same version a second time, it will increment the build number, to produce 301042.

This also applies if, for instance, you call set-version 3.1.4-rc.1, and then set-version 3.1.4-rc.2.

As for the CFBundleVersion on iOS, it will produce a string in the format ....

Example:

`bash
$ yarn set-version 1.0.0-rc.1


Output

...

Will set android version code to 100001

...

Will set CFBundleVersion to 1.0.0.1

$ yarn set-version 1.0.0-rc.2

Output

...

Will set android version code to 100002

...

Will set CFBundleVersion to 1.0.0.2

$ yarn set-version 1.0.0

Output

...

Will set android version code to 100003

...
