using an environment variable as the current_version

[OdedRub]

Hi,
I'm trying for some time now to make the incremental versioning automatic by passing the previous version to the plugin as the current_version, but it keeps giving the error "previous version '$ENV' is not a semantic version.
I made sure that the value of environment variable (ENV) is actually a valid semantic version (1.0.6) by printing it in different steps.
Is there anything I need to know regarding this issue?

Hi which version of the action are you using?

Cheers

Hey, thanks for your response.
I'm using version 1.1.0 (christian-draeger/[email protected]).
Trying to define something like this-

with
current-version: ${ENV}
version-fragment: 'bug'

Great action; just wanted to "plus 1" this request to allow the current-version to be an environment variable

Note to people here if they still care:
${{ env.VARIABLE_NAME }} is how you inject those environment variables.
