Feature: Allow `assemble` version override based on flag when using config
It would be great if you could override or set the version of the main component when you do sbomasm assemble -v [X.Y.Z] -c [config]. This allows you to set default in config but make them specific in your CI for example base on input variables.
Have u taken a look at https://github.com/interlynk-io/sbomasm?tab=readme-ov-file#edit-sboms, or is this something that if available in assemble would be better?
I have seen the edit functionality and its great. It would be a convenience to have the primary component version set the moment that you assemble it.
Current functionality: We can override the default values from the config file, but there’s a strict requirement to provide all three values in the group: "name," "type," and "version." If we try to override just one value (e.g., "version"), the command enforces providing the other two values as well, which is restrictive.
For example:
$ sbomasm assemble -v "v1.0.20" -c config.yaml -o final-sbom-config.spdx.json sbomex-cdx.json sbomgr-cdx.json
Error: if any flags in the group [name version type] are set they must all be set; missing [name type]
Our desired functionality is:
When a config.yaml file is provided, users should have the flexibility to override any individual field (e.g., just "version") without being required to provide all the other grouped fields.
