# Version Library for handling version information and constraints [](https://travis-ci.org/phar-io/version) ## Installation You can add this library as a local, per-project dependency to your project using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/): composer require phar-io/version If you only need this library during development, for instance to run your project's test suite, then you should add it as a development-time dependency: composer require --dev phar-io/version ## Version constraints A Version constraint describes a range of versions or a discrete version number. The format of version numbers follows the schema of [semantic versioning](http://semver.org): `<major>.<minor>.<patch>`. A constraint might contain an operator that describes the range. Beside the typical mathematical operators like `<=`, `>=`, there are two special operators: *Caret operator*: `^1.0` can be written as `>=1.0.0 <2.0.0` and read as »every Version within major version `1`«. *Tilde operator*: `~1.0.0` can be written as `>=1.0.0 <1.1.0` and read as »every version within minor version `1.1`. The behavior of tilde operator depends on whether a patch level version is provided or not. If no patch level is provided, tilde operator behaves like the caret operator: `~1.0` is identical to `^1.0`. ## Usage examples Parsing version constraints and check discrete versions for compliance: ```php use PharIo\Version\Version; use PharIo\Version\VersionConstraintParser; $parser = new VersionConstraintParser(); $caret_constraint = $parser->parse( '^7.0' ); $caret_constraint->complies( new Version( '7.0.17' ) ); // true $caret_constraint->complies( new Version( '7.1.0' ) ); // true $caret_constraint->complies( new Version( '6.4.34' ) ); // false $tilde_constraint = $parser->parse( '~1.1.0' ); $tilde_constraint->complies( new Version( '1.1.4' ) ); // true $tilde_constraint->complies( new Version( '1.2.0' ) ); // false ``` As of version 2.0.0, pre-release labels are supported and taken into account when comparing versions: ```php $leftVersion = new PharIo\Version\Version('3.0.0-alpha.1'); $rightVersion = new PharIo\Version\Version('3.0.0-alpha.2'); $leftVersion->isGreaterThan($rightVersion); // false $rightVersion->isGreaterThan($leftVersion); // true ```
