Versioning Library for Go
go-version is a library for parsing versions and version constraints, and verifying versions against a set of constraints. go-version can sort a collection of versions properly, handles prerelease/beta versions, can increment versions, etc.
Versions used with go-version must follow SemVer.
Installation and Usage
Package documentation can be found on GoDoc.
Installation can be done with a normal go get:
$ go get github.com/hashicorp/go-version
Version Parsing and Comparison
v1, err := version.NewVersion("1.2")
v2, err := version.NewVersion("1.5+metadata")
// Comparison example. There is also GreaterThan, Equal, and just
// a simple Compare that returns an int allowing easy >=, <=, etc.
if v1.LessThan(v2) {
fmt.Printf("%s is less than %s", v1, v2)
}
Version Constraints
v1, err := version.NewVersion("1.2")
// Constraints example.
constraints, err := version.NewConstraint(">= 1.0, < 1.4")
if constraints.Check(v1) {
fmt.Printf("%s satisfies constraints %s", v1, constraints)
}
Version Sorting
versionsRaw := []string{"1.1", "0.7.1", "1.4-beta", "1.4", "2"}
versions := make([]*version.Version, len(versionsRaw))
for i, raw := range versionsRaw {
v, _ := version.NewVersion(raw)
versions[i] = v
}
// After this, the versions are properly sorted
sort.Sort(version.Collection(versions))

Types ¶
type Collection ¶
type Collection []*Version
Collection is a type that implements the sort.Interface interface so that versions can be sorted.
func (Collection) Len ¶
func (v Collection) Len() int
func (Collection) Less ¶
func (v Collection) Less(i, j int) bool
func (Collection) Swap ¶
func (v Collection) Swap(i, j int)
type Constraint ¶
type Constraint struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Constraint represents a single constraint for a version, such as ">= 1.0".
func (*Constraint) Check ¶
func (c *Constraint) Check(v *Version) bool
Check tests if a constraint is validated by the given version.
func (*Constraint) String ¶
func (c *Constraint) String() string
type Constraints ¶
type Constraints []*Constraint
Constraints is a slice of constraints. We make a custom type so that we can add methods to it.
func NewConstraint ¶
func NewConstraint(v string) (Constraints, error)
NewConstraint will parse one or more constraints from the given constraint string. The string must be a comma-separated list of constraints.
func (Constraints) Check ¶
func (cs Constraints) Check(v *Version) bool
Check tests if a version satisfies all the constraints.
func (Constraints) String ¶
func (cs Constraints) String() string
Returns the string format of the constraints
type Version ¶
type Version struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Version represents a single version.
func Must ¶
Must is a helper that wraps a call to a function returning (*Version, error) and panics if error is non-nil.
func NewSemver ¶ added in v1.1.0
NewSemver parses the given version and returns a new Version that adheres strictly to SemVer specs https://semver.org/
func NewVersion ¶
NewVersion parses the given version and returns a new Version.
func (*Version) Compare ¶
Compare compares this version to another version. This returns -1, 0, or 1 if this version is smaller, equal, or larger than the other version, respectively.
If you want boolean results, use the LessThan, Equal, GreaterThan, GreaterThanOrEqual or LessThanOrEqual methods.
func (*Version) Core ¶ added in v1.3.0
Core returns a new version constructed from only the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH segments of the version, without prerelease or metadata.
func (*Version) GreaterThan ¶
GreaterThan tests if this version is greater than another version.
func (*Version) GreaterThanOrEqual ¶ added in v1.2.0
GreaterThanOrEqual tests if this version is greater than or equal to another version.
func (*Version) LessThanOrEqual ¶ added in v1.2.0
LessThanOrEqual tests if this version is less than or equal to another version.
func (*Version) Metadata ¶
Metadata returns any metadata that was part of the version string.
Metadata is anything that comes after the "+" in the version. For example, with "1.2.3+beta", the metadata is "beta".
func (*Version) Original ¶
Original returns the original parsed version as-is, including any potential whitespace, `v` prefix, etc.
func (*Version) Prerelease ¶
Prerelease returns any prerelease data that is part of the version, or blank if there is no prerelease data.
Prerelease information is anything that comes after the "-" in the version (but before any metadata). For example, with "1.2.3-beta", the prerelease information is "beta".
func (*Version) Segments ¶
Segments returns the numeric segments of the version as a slice of ints.
This excludes any metadata or pre-release information. For example, for a version "1.2.3-beta", segments will return a slice of 1, 2, 3.
func (*Version) Segments64 ¶
Segments64 returns the numeric segments of the version as a slice of int64s.
This excludes any metadata or pre-release information. For example, for a version "1.2.3-beta", segments will return a slice of 1, 2, 3.
func (*Version) String ¶
String returns the full version string included pre-release and metadata information.
This value is rebuilt according to the parsed segments and other information. Therefore, ambiguities in the version string such as prefixed zeroes (1.04.0 => 1.4.0), `v` prefix (v1.0.0 => 1.0.0), and missing parts (1.0 => 1.0.0) will be made into a canonicalized form as shown in the parenthesized examples.
