Change BC Version/Country

If you want to change the major BC version, set up a specific BC version or change the localization of the containers used for build, development or testing, you have to modify a different configuration file whether you're using Alpaca with GitHub or Azure DevOps:

• GitHub (AL-Go)
• Azure DevOps

Locate the container configuration you want to change in the containerConfigurations section of the alpaca.json, e.g. current. There you will see an entry like this:

{
    "name": "current",
    "inheritFromWorkflow": "Test Current"
}

If you e.g. want to make sure you stay on release 24.2 and use the w1 version, you would change it like this:

{
    "name": "current",
    "inheritFromWorkflow": "Test Current",
    "version": "24.2",
    "country": "w1"
}

For the changes to take effect you need to commit and push the changes to the repository. When creating a new development container (see create container) or build container the new configuration will be applied automically.

Note

Existing containers are not affected.
