How to add current datetime as version number in angular build hash file on index.html

Question

I am facing caching issue with my Angular app. I have used several approach but issue is still there. For creating the build, I am using following command.

ng build --prod --output-hashing=all --aot

Can we add version number after hash file name like as below.

<script src='runtime.834594739.js?v=12345678'></script>

Please suggest, how to add version number with build file which auto adds in index.html file on runtime.

Thanks

The 834594739 is the hash generated by the CLI. Why do you want to add 12345678 ? — Hsuan Lee

The correct param is --outputHashing, not --output-hashing. Just focus on -- (double hyphen)

Documentation.

Angular manages that on its own, just use it correctly.

Both will work. But after using this, my file is still being cached. After deploying the new version, we are able to see old file data.

Please share the output of your build command. If the cache busting is enabled, there is absolutely no reason for it to not work.
