The Mobile Build tools supports automatically incrementing the Build Version for Xamarin iOS and Xamarin Android projects. This can work EVERYWHERE including your local desktop/laptop. This is however an entirely Opt-In feature!
Automatic Build Versioning supports the following Versioning Environments:
| Environment | Description |
|---|---|
| All | Versioning will occur on every build. |
| BuildHost | Versioning will only occur if a *Supported Build Host is detected. |
| Local | Versioning will only occur if a *Supported Build Host is not detected. |
Automatic Build Versioning supports the following Behavior's:
| Behavior | Description |
|---|---|
| Off | Automatic Versioning is Disabled |
| PreferBuildNumber | When running on a *Supported Build Host it will use the Build Number, otherwise it will use the current timestamp |
| Timestamp | Automatic Versioning will use the timestamp for the build |
* Supported Build Hosts:
- AppCenter
- AppVeyor
- Jenkins
- VSTS
To enable Automatic Versioning you will need to open your iOS or Android project edit the main PropertyGroup.
| Property | Default Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| AutomaticVersionOffset | 0 | This value will be added to your Version Number |
| AutomaticVersionEnvironment | All | By default this will run everywhere |
| AutomaticVersionBehavior | n/a | The property must be set to PreferBuildNumber or Timestamp to enable the build task. |
