MyVersionLib is a simple-to-use PHP component for easily determine your app's installed version by reading Composer's installed.json file.

The main advantage of this is that you don't have to manually update a version string in your source code any more. Use this library to ask Composer which version it installed instead :)

MyVersionLib should be installed using composer:

require: {
    "stuart/myversion": "~1"
}

This library is really easy to use:

{% highlight php startinline %} $version = new Stuart\MyVersion("datasift/storyplayer"); echo (string)$version; {% endhighlight %}

Just substitute "datasift/storyplayer" for the composer package you want the version for.
