Create a build-infos.json file containing firefox platform_version and buildid
To generate the update-responses xml, we need to know the firefox platformVersion
and buildID
.
In standard releases we generate a config.yml
from projects/release/update_responses_config.yml
which includes the platformVersion
it gets from the rbm config. To get the buildID
the update_responses
script will extract a mar file to get it from application.ini
.
While generating updates-responses xml for nightly builds (in #25102 (moved)), we don't have easy access to the platformVersion
. I think we could add it in a build-infos.json
file. At the same time we can also include the buildID
in that same file which removes the need to have mar-tools available to extract a mar file.
