.htaccess

# CSS/JS auto-versioning
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.[\d]{10}\.(css|js)$ $1.$2 [L]

auto_version.php

<?php
/**

function auto_version($file) {
    $file = str_replace('http://', '', $file);
    $file = str_replace('https://', '', $file);
    $file = str_replace($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'], '', $file);
    $full_file = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $file;

    if (strpos($file, '/') !== 0 || !file_exists($full_file)) {
        $full_file = substr($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'], 0, -strlen($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']));
        $full_file .= $file;

        if (!file_exists($full_file)) {
            return $file;
        }
    }

    $mtime = filemtime($full_file);
    $new_file = preg_replace('{\\.([^./]+)$}', ".$mtime.\$1", $file);
    return $new_file;
}

Usage e.g. <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo auto_version('/css/main.css'); ?>" type="text/css" />

Where is the Server config? Apache or nginx?

Server config for Apache below, place into .htaccess, site config or any Apache config that works for you :)

# CSS/JS auto-versioning
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.[\d]{10}\.(css|js)$ $1.$2 [L]

what if base_url with port number? like
http://localhost:8080/
? i have been try and it is failed
thank you very much

I found it not to work with relative paths and on my system (Windows 10, Apache), but I would say it will not work on linux server neither with relative paths. I fixed the code, see my fork, I suggest you merge it to your code.
Cheers
