Keep API Version Up to Date

[ralphcallaway]

Upgraded to the latest and got this error
Entity type 'LightningComponentBundle' is not available in this api version

Per this forum the culprit is the sourceApiVersion in sfdx-project.json

Would be nice to add an update to keep that api version current with each upgrade. Could be other options like a pre-commit hook to check things are up to the latest version. Would be nice not to have to release a new generator version 3 times a year to bump api versions. Got to be something better we could do or some way to get the latest released version of the salesforce api.

maybe a pre-commit hook that checks the api version is current every so often against the rest api? could also have a npm script to update the key spots if it doesn't make sense to re-run the generator, see https://salesforce.stackexchange.com/a/116651/594

other version reference is in manifest/package.xml but not sure if that one even does anything, seems like the sfdx stuff overrides it now

ya a commit hook seems like the way to go... Maybe with a short timeout to prevent it from hanging.

Could create a very simple sfdx:plugin to do this

sfdx project:update:version or something like that
