Is there a way to get the installed bigbluebutton release number?

Normally I use bbb-conf --ceck or look in the /etc/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton-release file. But these are not installed.

For the html5 client I see that there is the TAG environment variable in the html5 container.

In the core container there is a VERSION variable. But this is set to an older version and said to be unused (in the core/Dockerfile):

# this variable is not used, but it triggers
# rebuilding from here on if changed
ENV VERSION v2.2.26

In an other issue I read

There was an BBB update released, immediately building the bbb-docker core image uses these new packages

What is the best way to find the bigbluebutton release number of this packages?

Which BigBlueButton version it is is a difficult question, since BigBlueButton consists out of a lot of components and the "official BigBlueButton release number" mainly describes a certain state of these components.

With bbb-docker some components like etherpad, freeswitch and kurento are taken directly from their official releases of their maintainers and therefore don't necessarily correlate with the self-built & shipped versions within the ubuntu 16.04 repository.

You can view all versions with the command: ./scripts/print-versions

Maybe the most helpful indication is the html5 version, because the version is derived from the BBB version.

Only invalid case: If there is a BBB Release without changes to html5, then the docker image would not be rebuilt and therefore still owns the previous version number.
