Overview

The preprocess version command displays version information about your preprocess CLI installation. This is useful for:

  • Verifying your installation
  • Troubleshooting issues
  • Ensuring compatibility
  • Reporting bugs

Basic Usage

Display Version 

  preprocess version

This outputs the current version of preprocess CLI.

Example Output 

  preprocess version 0.1.1

Why Version Information Matters

For Troubleshooting

When reporting issues or seeking help:

  # Always include your version when reporting bugs
preprocess version

This helps maintainers:

  • Identify if you’re using an outdated version
  • Reproduce issues in the same version
  • Determine if the issue has already been fixed

For Compatibility

Check version before using specific features:

  # Check if your version supports a specific feature
preprocess version

For Documentation

When following tutorials, ensure you’re using a compatible version:

  # Verify your version matches the tutorial requirements
preprocess version

Checking for Updates

To check if you have the latest version:

  1. Note your current version:

      preprocess version

  2. Check the latest release on GitHub:

      # Using curl
curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/agailloty/preprocess/releases/latest | grep tag_name

  3. Compare with your version

Best Practices

Include in Bug Reports

Always include version information when reporting issues:

  # When reporting a bug, run:
echo "preprocess version:"
preprocess version

echo "Operating System:"
uname -a  # Linux/Mac
echo %OS%  # Windows

Log Version in Scripts

In your data processing scripts, log the version for reproducibility:

  #!/bin/bash
# process_data.sh

echo "=== Processing Script Started ==="
echo "preprocess version: $(preprocess version)"
echo "Date: $(date)"
echo ""

# Rest of your script...

Verify in CI/CD Pipelines

In your continuous integration workflows:

  # .github/workflows/data-processing.yml
- name: Check preprocess version
  run: |
    echo "preprocess version: $(preprocess version)"
    # Verify minimum version if needed
