Quick Start

How to install and use the command line tool

You can download the CLI tool and run it to get a shell or run batch files:

https://github.com/inventage/version-tiger-repos/raw/master/cli/com.inventage.tools.versiontiger-cli.jar

If you just like to execute a batch script, you may use the maven plugin:

mvn com.inventage.tools.versiontiger:versiontiger-maven-plugin:execute -DstatementsFile=myVersionings.versiontiger

See Batch File Usage to see all available commands.

How to install and use the plugin in Eclipse

Search for Version Tiger in your Eclipse Marketplace client and click install.

Alternatively, you may install with "Help -> Install new software..." menu and enter our release URL as software site:

https://raw.github.com/inventage/version-tiger-repos/master/releases/

Start the versioning dialog by right clicking on a Maven/Tycho project and choosing the "Update version..." item.

It brings up the dialog which lets you select the desired new version in the chosen projects.
