Use Jenkins build number

[franiglesias]

This URL pattern returns the last build number for a jenkins job. We need authenticated access to reach it.

http://{jenkins-url-job}/lastBuild/buildNumber

I do not have knowledge of jenkins and its processes, so i hope someone will drop by to answer :)

Same. I've been looking at this thing and found the URL to get the information, but I need more research on the auth thing.

There are also some things to consider:

• Some configuration (via .versiontag file, env vars or something) to maintain the login data, project url, etc if needed. This config should be project based I think
• If versiontag is going to be run as part of the Jenkins build (in that case, build version is available its env variable)

This thing is asking for a 3.x.x version 🤣
