C++ library compare and manipulate versions are available as extensions to the<major>.<minor>.<patch>-<prerelease_tag>+<build_metadata> format complying withSemantic Versioning 2.0.0

• Parse

  semver::version v1;if (semver::parse("1.4.3", v1)) {constint patch = v1.patch();// 3// do something...}semver::version v2;if (semver::parse("1.2.4-alpha.10")) {const std::string prerelease_tag = v2.prerelease_tag()// alpha.10// do something...}

• Сomparison

  assert(v1 != v2);assert(v1 > v2);assert(v1 >= v2);assert(v2 < v1);assert(v2 <= v1);

• Validate

  constbool result = semver::valid("1.2.3-alpha+build");assert(result);

• Range matching

  semver::range_set range;if (semver::parse(">=1.0.0 <2.0.0 || >3.2.1", range)) {  semver::version version;if (semver::parse("1.2.3", version)) {assert(range.contains(version));  }}

Check theexamples folder to see more various usage examples

You should add required filesemver.hpp.

If you are usingvcpkg on your project for external dependencies, then you can use theneargye-semver.

If you are usingConan to manage your dependencies, merely addneargye-semver/x.y.z to your conan's requires, wherex.y.z is the release version you want to use.

Alternatively, you can use something likeCPM which is based on CMake'sFetch_Content module.

CPMAddPackage(NAME semver    GITHUB_REPOSITORY Neargye/semver    GIT_TAG x.y.z# Where `x.y.z` is the release version you want to use.)
