Latest version placeholder #1816

Description

@francislavoie

I originally asked about this here #1802 (comment) but I didn't get an answer, so I figured I'd open an issue instead to discuss it.

Is there any way to dynamically replace this <version> with a placeholder? I dug through the scripts in this repo and I didn't find any relevant placeholders.

Ideally, I'd like a %%LATEST_VERSION%% placeholder that would basically be the version number that the latest tag shares.

I've already gotten a question from a user recently who is new to Docker asking "do I need to replace <version>?" so I think this should be improved.

I realize that this is probably non-trivial because the latest tag doesn't directly map to a specific version because of how tagging works. Maybe there's a way to hook into the docs generator to provide additional placeholders? We could write a simple script that extracts the relevant info based on some heuristic.
