* fix: dynamic version badge — read from git tag, never hardcoded
The settings panel showed v0.50.87 and the HTTP Server: header said
HermesWebUI/0.50.38 — both hardcoded strings that drift further behind
with every release because there was no mechanism to keep them in sync.
Changes:
- api/updates.py: add _run_git() (moved before _detect_webui_version),
_detect_webui_version(), and WEBUI_VERSION module constant resolved
once at import time via 'git describe --tags --always --dirty'.
Fallback chain: git → api/_version.py → 'unknown'.
- api/routes.py: inject webui_version into GET /api/settings response
so the frontend can read it without a separate API call.
- static/panels.js: loadSettingsPanel() populates .settings-version-badge
from settings.webui_version — one line after the existing api() call.
- static/index.html: replace stale hardcoded 'v0.50.87' with '—'
placeholder; JS overwrites it as soon as the settings panel opens.
- server.py: replace hardcoded 'HermesWebUI/0.50.38' server_version with
'HermesWebUI/' + WEBUI_VERSION.lstrip('v') — stays in sync automatically.
- Dockerfile: add ARG HERMES_VERSION=unknown and write api/_version.py
so Docker images (where .git is excluded) still show the correct tag.
- .github/workflows/release.yml: pass build-args: HERMES_VERSION=${{ github.ref_name }}
to the Docker build step on tag pushes.
- .gitignore: exclude api/_version.py (generated by Docker/CI, never committed).
No manual 'update the version badge' step is required going forward.
Tagging is sufficient — the badge and HTTP header update automatically.
Tests: 18 new tests in tests/test_version_badge.py covering the full
resolution chain, /api/settings injection, HTML placeholder, JS wiring,
and server.py import. 1596 tests pass total.
* fix: address review feedback on PR #790
- api/updates.py: replace exec() with regex parse for api/_version.py
(no supply-chain risk from build artifact; exec unnecessary for one assignment)
- api/updates.py: cap git describe timeout at 3s (was 10s — import-time
stall on NFS/.git would block server startup unnecessarily)
- server.py: lstrip('v') → removeprefix('v') (lstrip strips chars not prefix)
- server.py: emit bare 'HermesWebUI' when version is 'unknown' rather than
'HermesWebUI/unknown' (log aggregators expect semver-ish suffix or none)
- CHANGELOG.md: add v0.50.124 entry for this user-visible change
- tests: rename exec-error test to reflect regex behaviour; add tests for
removeprefix usage and unknown-version header guard (1598 tests total)
