CLI not using project version

[revett]

Problem

The CLI is not using the project's version from the VERSION file in the root of the directory.

See: https://github.com/CityOfZion/neo-local/blob/master/VERSION

It instead has to manually set it's version within the main.go, see:

neo-local/cli/main.go

Lines 13 to 47 in 046c115

	const (
	copyright = "MIT"
	description = "Quickly setup a local environment for NEO smart contract development"
	version = "0.2.0"
	)
	var (
	author = cli.Author{
	Name: "City of Zion - https://github.com/cityofzion",
	}
	name = color.GreenString("neo-local")
	)
	func main() {
	logWriter := logger.NewWriter(name, version)
	log.SetFlags(0)
	log.SetOutput(logWriter)
	app := cli.NewApp()
	app.Authors = []cli.Author{author}
	app.Commands = commands.GenerateCommandsIndex()
	app.Copyright = copyright
	app.Name = name
	app.Usage = description
	app.Version = version
	err := app.Run(os.Args)
	if err != nil {
	log.Fatalf(
	"%s %s. Please check the FAQ: https://github.com/CityOfZion/neo-local/wiki/FAQ",
	color.RedString("ERROR:"),
	color.RedString(err.Error()),
	)
	}
	}

This is annoying as you tend to forget to bump both, and the CI build on checks against one of them.

Solution

Pass the value of VERSION through when building the CLI.
