Help: Is there a way to find Blender file version and other infos on opening the file?

As I asked in the title, I would like to see file infos like version number, UI tabs, number of object and so on, when I select a .blend file for opening.
Is there a way to do this? An addon maybe? It would be very helpful.

so it should be possible

this should be asked in the python forum

happy bl

This works on a loaded file, put it in the text editor and run the script with Alt+p


import bpy
import os

os.system("cls")

main_path = os.path.dirname(bpy.data.filepath)
baseName = bpy.path.basename(bpy.context.blend_data.filepath)

blendName = os.path.splitext(baseName)[0]

str1 = bpy.data.version

print("MainPath: {0}\nBaseName: {1}\nBlendName:{2}\nVersion: {3}".format(main_path, baseName, blendName, str1))

# Result example: MainPath: X:\Blender_Resources\Colkai_Blends\Hard_Ops
# BaseName: GunStage_A_2.blend
# BlendName:GunStage_A_2
# Version: (2, 78, 0)
