Embeddable Tokens

Tramline has pre-configured ‘tokens’ to allow for dynamic values in things like:

When configuring Tramline, in a variety of places, you'd be able to specify these tokens to dynamically inject values at different lifecycle points of a release (or even non-release situations). The tokens are wrapped between ~ and ~ to allow for easy identification and to not conflict with other known tokens or characters. The token name itself is always written in camelCase.

Available token types​

  • releaseVersion three-segment SemVer or CalVer
    • Example: 1.2.3
  • releaseStartDate date when the release started formatted as YYYY-MM-DD
    • Example: 2025-07-22
    • Example: 2025-02-28
  • trainName parameterized / url-friendly name of the train
    • Example: production
    • Example: release_ios
  • buildNumber version code or build number of the current build
    • Example: 1
    • Example: 214000
