You should try to use
configure_file
cmake command.

You'll need to replace {{VERSION}} in your static files with @VERSION at .
You may then

configure_file(${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/static_file.in
${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/static_file @ONLY)
install(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/static_file DESTINATION ...)
