Access information that are contained in banner?

For Developers

Hi,
when you are creating the banner file you can specify some placeholders
I think it's not possible to get information like CONFIG_VERSION_NUMBER when this information was not in the banner file after building or?
So the build process is the only way to get this informations?

Look at file /etc/os-release and /etc/openwrt_release

root@LEDE:~# cat /etc/os-release

VERSION="SNAPSHOT, Reboot"
ID="lede"

PRETTY_NAME="LEDE Reboot SNAPSHOT"
VERSION_ID="snapshot"
