For example, + + v, err := semver.NewVersion("1.2.3-beta.1+build345") + +If there is an error the version wasn't parseable. The version object has methods +to get the parts of the version, compare it to other versions, convert the +version back into a string, and get the original string. For more details +please see the documentation at https://godoc.org/github.com/Masterminds/semver. + +Sorting Semantic Versions + +A set of versions can be sorted using the `sort` package from the standard library. +For example, + + raw := []string{"1.2.3", "1.0", "1.3", "2", "0.4.2",} + vs := make([]*semver.Version, len(raw)) + for i, r := range raw { + v, err := semver.NewVersion(r) + if err != nil { + t.Errorf("Error parsing version: %s", err) + } + + vs[i] = v + } + + sort.Sort(semver.Collection(vs)) + +Checking Version Constraints + +Checking a version against version constraints is one of the most featureful +parts of the package. + + c, err := semver.NewConstraint(">= 1.2.3") + if err != nil { + // Handle constraint not being parseable. + } + + v, err := semver.NewVersion("1.3") + if err != nil { + // Handle version not being parseable. + } + // Check if the version meets the constraints. The a variable will be true. + a := c.Check(v) + +Basic Comparisons + +There are two elements to the comparisons. First, a comparison string is a list +of comma separated and comparisons. These are then separated by || separated or +comparisons. For example, `">= 1.2, < 3.0.0 || >= 4.2.3"` is looking for a +comparison that's greater than or equal to 1.2 and less than 3.0.0 or is +greater than or equal to 4.2.3. + +The basic comparisons are: + + * `=`: equal (aliased to no operator) + * `!=`: not equal + * `>`: greater than + * `<`: less than + * `>=`: greater than or equal to + * `<=`: less than or equal to + +Hyphen Range Comparisons + +There are multiple methods to handle ranges and the first is hyphens ranges. +These look like: + + * `1.2 - 1.4.5` which is equivalent to `>= 1.2, <= 1.4.5` + * `2.3.4 - 4.5` which is equivalent to `>= 2.3.4, <= 4.5` + +Wildcards In Comparisons + +The `x`, `X`, and `*` characters can be used as a wildcard character. This works +for all comparison operators. When used on the `=` operator it falls +back to the pack level comparison (see tilde below). For example, + + * `1.2.x` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.0, < 1.3.0` + * `>= 1.2.x` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.0` + * `<= 2.x` is equivalent to `<= 3` + * `*` is equivalent to `>= 0.0.0` + +Tilde Range Comparisons (Patch) + +The tilde (`~`) comparison operator is for patch level ranges when a minor +version is specified and major level changes when the minor number is missing. +For example, + + * `~1.2.3` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.3, < 1.3.0` + * `~1` is equivalent to `>= 1, < 2` + * `~2.3` is equivalent to `>= 2.3, < 2.4` + * `~1.2.x` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.0, < 1.3.0` + * `~1.x` is equivalent to `>= 1, < 2` + +Caret Range Comparisons (Major) + +The caret (`^`) comparison operator is for major level changes. This is useful +when comparisons of API versions as a major change is API breaking. For example, + + * `^1.2.3` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.3, < 2.0.0` + * `^1.2.x` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.0, < 2.0.0` + * `^2.3` is equivalent to `>= 2.3, < 3` + * `^2.x` is equivalent to `>= 2.0.0, < 3` +*/ +package semver |
