Laravel-Version
===============

[](#laravel-version)

This simple package reads a version.json (or whatever is configured) from your base\_path() and gives you a version object, which you can utilize in your view.

```
 Laravel  @unless($version->isEmpty()) (Version: {{ $version->branch }}-{{ $version->build }}-{{ $version->hash }}) @endif

```

No errors are thrown if the key doesn't exist or the json file is missing or invalid.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

> composer require mrcrankhank/laravel-update

If you run Laravel <= 5.4, add the service provider to the 'providers' array in config/app.php:

> MrCrankHank\\LaravelVersion\\VersionServiceProvider

Publish config file (only necessary if you don't want to use the default filename 'version.json')

> php artisan vendor:publish

Compatibility
-------------

[](#compatibility)

This package was developed in Laravel 5.5, but should work in other versions as well.

License
