This small python library provides a few tools to handle `SemVer <http://semver.org>`_ in Python.
Handles the full 2.0.0-rc1 version of the SemVer scheme, and provides tools to declare version ranges.
The full doc is available on http://python-semanticversion.readthedocs.org/; simple usage is described below.
The semantic_version library supports Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2, 3.3.
Usage
=====
Install::
$ pip install semantic_version
$
Define a Version::
>>> from semantic_version import Version
>>> v = Version('0.1.1')
Compare it to other versions::
>>> v < Version('0.1.2')
True
>>> sorted([Version('0.1.1'), Version('0.11.1'), Version('0.1.1-alpha')])
[Version('0.1.1-alpha'), Version('0.1.1'), Version('0.11.1')]
Define a simple specification::
>>> from semantic_version import Spec
>>> s = Spec('>=0.1.1')
>>> Version('0.1.1') in s
True
>>> Version('0.1.1-alpha') in s
False
Define complex specifications::
>>> s = Spec('>=0.1.1,<0.2.0')
>>> Version('0.1.2') in s
True
>>> Version('0.3.0') in s
False
>>> Version('0.2.0') in s
False
Select the best compatible version from a list::
>>> s = Spec('>=0.1.1,<0.2.0')
>>> s.select([Version('0.1.1'), Version('0.1.9-alpha'), Version('0.1.9-alpha+1'))
Version('0.1.9-alpha+1')
Framework integration
=====================
Integrates with `Django <http://djangoproject.com>`_, through the ``VersionField`` and ``SpecField`` custom fields::
from semantic_version import django_fields as semver_fields
class MyComputer(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=40)
kernel_version = semver_fields.VersionField()
semantic_version supports Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2, 3.3, and is distributed under the two-clause BSD licence.

- Semantic Version specification: `SemVer`_
Getting started
===============
Intall the package from `PyPI`_, using pip:
.. code-block:: sh
pip install semantic_version
Or from GitHub:
.. code-block:: sh
$ git clone git://github.com/rbarrois/python-semanticversion.git
Import it in your code:
.. code-block:: python
import semantic_version
.. currentmodule:: semantic_version
This module provides two classes to handle semantic versions:
- :class:`Version` represents a version number (``0.1.1-alpha+build.2012-05-15``)
- :class:`Spec` represents a requirement specification (``>=0.1.1,<0.3.0``)
Versions
--------
Defining a :class:`Version` is quite simple:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> import semantic_version
>>> v = semantic_version.Version('0.1.1')
>>> v.major
0
>>> v.minor
1
>>> v.patch
1
>>> v.prerelease
[]
>>> v.build
[]
>>> list(v)
[0, 1, 1, [], []]
If the provided version string is invalid, a :exc:`ValueError` will be raised:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> semantic_version.Version('0.1')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/Users/rbarrois/dev/semantic_version/src/semantic_version/base.py", line 64, in __init__
major, minor, patch, prerelease, build = self.parse(version_string, partial)
File "/Users/rbarrois/dev/semantic_version/src/semantic_version/base.py", line 86, in parse
raise ValueError('Invalid version string: %r' % version_string)
ValueError: Invalid version string: '0.1'
In order to define "relaxed" version strings, you must pass in ``partial=True``:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> v = semantic_version.Version('0.1', partial=True)
>>> list(v)
[0, 1, None, None, None]
Obviously, :class:`Versions <Version>` can be compared:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> semantic_version.Version('0.1.1') < semantic_version.Version('0.1.2')
True
>>> semantic_version.Version('0.1.1') > semantic_version.Version('0.1.1-alpha')
True
>>> semantic_version.Version('0.1.1') <= semantic_version.Version('0.1.1-alpha')
False
Requirement specification
-------------------------
The :class:`Spec` object describes a range of accepted versions:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> s = Spec('>=0.1.1') # At least 0.1.1
>>> s.match(Version('0.1.1'))
True
>>> s.match(Version('0.1.1-alpha1')) # pre-release satisfy version spec
True
>>> s.match(Version('0.1.0'))
False
Simpler test syntax is also available using the ``in`` keyword:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> s = Spec('==0.1.1')
>>> Version('0.1.1-alpha1') in s
True
>>> Version('0.1.2') in s
False
Combining specifications can be expressed in two ways:
- Components separated by commas in a single string:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> Spec('>=0.1.1,<0.3.0')
- Components given as different arguments:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> Spec('>=0.1.1', '<0.3.0')
- A mix of both versions:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> Spec('>=0.1.1', '!=0.2.4-alpha,<0.3.0')
Using a specification
"""""""""""""""""""""
The :func:`Spec.filter` method filters an iterable of :class:`Version`:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> s = Spec('>=0.1.0,<0.4.0')
>>> versions = (Version('0.%d.0' % i) for i in range(6))
>>> for v in s.filter(versions):
... print v
0.1.0
0.2.0
0.3.0
It is also possible to select the 'best' version from such iterables:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> s = Spec('>=0.1.0,<0.4.0')
>>> versions = (Version('0.%d.0' % i) for i in range(6))
>>> s.select(versions)
Version('0.3.0')
Coercing an arbitrary version string
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Some user-supplied input might not match the semantic version scheme.
For such cases, the :meth:`Version.coerce` method will try to convert any
version-like string into a valid semver version:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> Version.coerce('0')
Version('0.0.0')
>>> Version.coerce('0.1.2.3.4')
Version('0.1.2+3.4')
>>> Version.coerce('0.1.2a3')
Version('0.1.2-a3')
Including pre-release identifiers in specifications
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
When testing a :class:`Version` against a :class:`Spec`, comparisons are only
performed for components defined in the :class:`Spec`; thus, a pre-release
version (``1.0.0-alpha``), while not strictly equal to the non pre-release
version (``1.0.0``), satisfies the ``==1.0.0`` :class:`Spec`.
Pre-release identifiers will only be compared if included in the :class:`Spec`
definition or (for the empty pre-release number) if a single dash is appended
(``1.0.0-``):
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> Version('0.1.0-alpha') in Spec('>=0.1.0') # No pre-release identifier
True
>>> Version('0.1.0-alpha') in Spec('>=0.1.0-') # Include pre-release in checks
False
Including build identifiers in specifications
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
The same rule applies for the build identifier: comparisons will include it only
if it was included in the :class:`Spec` definition, or - for the unnumbered build
version - if a single + is appended to the definition(``1.0.0+``, ``1.0.0-alpha+``):
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> Version('1.0.0+build2') in Spec('<=1.0.0') # Build identifier ignored
True
>>> Version('1.0.0+build2') in Spec('<=1.0.0+') # Include build in checks
False
Using with Django
=================
The :mod:`semantic_version.django_fields` module provides django fields to
store :class:`Version` or :class:`Spec` objects.
More documentation is available in the :doc:`django` section.
