get version of installed app - Fcs - 21.03.2026
Hello everyone,
I’m trying to find out how to determine the version of an installed application, basically the information that appears in the control file.
I don’t know whether it’s stored in a database or in a file somewhere.
Thanks for the help.

Use this, replace app-name with the real application name:
Code:
control = io.readfile('/data/apps/usr/lib/opkg/info/app-name.control') or ''
version = control:match('Version: (%d+)') or ''
version = tonumber(version) or 0
log(version)RE: get version of installed app - Fcs - 23.03.2026
