Version¶
This is a helper class to work with versions, it splits the version string based on dots and hyphens. It exposes all the version components as properties and offers total ordering through compare operators.
compiler_lower_than_12 = Version(self.settings.compiler.version) < "12.0"
is_legacy = Version(self.version) < 2
- class Version(value, qualifier=False)¶
This is NOT an implementation of semver, as users may use any pattern in their versions. It is just a helper to parse “.” or “-” and compare taking into account integers when possible
Attributes¶
The Version
class offers ways to access the different parts of the version number:
main¶
Get all the main digits.
v = Version("1.2.3.4-alpha.3+b1")
assert [str(i) for i in v.main] == ['1', '2', '3', '4', '5']
major¶
Get the major digit.
v = Version("1.2.3.4-alpha.3+b1")
assert str(v.major) == "1"
minor¶
Get the minor digit.
v = Version("1.2.3.4-alpha.3+b1")
assert str(v.minor) == "2"
patch¶
Get the patch digit.
v = Version("1.2.3.4-alpha.3+b1")
assert str(v.patch) == "3"
micro¶
Get the micro digit.
v = Version("1.2.3.4-alpha.3+b1")
assert str(v.micro) == "4"
pre¶
Get the pre-release digit.
v = Version("1.2.3.4-alpha.3+b1")
assert str(v.pre) == "alpha.3"
build¶
Get the build digit.
v = Version("1.2.3.4-alpha.3+b1")
assert str(v.build) == "b1"
