"""Provides classes to represent module version numbers (one class for

each style of version numbering). There are currently two such classes

implemented: StrictVersion and LooseVersion.

Every version number class implements the following interface:
|
|
* the 'parse' method takes a string and parses it to some internal
|
|
representation; if the string is an invalid version number,
|
|
'parse' raises a ValueError exception
|
|
* the class constructor takes an optional string argument which,
|
|
if supplied, is passed to 'parse'
|
|
* __str__ reconstructs the string that was passed to 'parse' (or
|
|
an equivalent string -- ie. one that will generate an equivalent
|
|
version number instance)
|
|
* __repr__ generates Python code to recreate the version number instance
|
|
* __cmp__ compares the current instance with either another instance
|
|
of the same class or a string (which will be parsed to an instance
|
|
of the same class, thus must follow the same rules)

Implements the standard interface for version number classes as
|
|
described above. A version number consists of two or three
|
|
dot-separated numeric components, with an optional "pre-release" tag
|
|
on the end. The pre-release tag consists of the letter 'a' or 'b'
|
|
followed by a number. If the numeric components of two version
|
|
numbers are equal, then one with a pre-release tag will always
|
|
be deemed earlier (lesser) than one without.
|
|
|
|
The following are valid version numbers (shown in the order that
|
|
would be obtained by sorting according to the supplied cmp function):
|
|
|
|
0.4 0.4.0 (these two are equivalent)
|
|
0.4.1
|
|
0.5a1
|
|
0.5b3
|
|
0.5
|
|
0.9.6
|

1.0
|
|
1.0.4a3
|
|
1.0.4b1
|
|
1.0.4
|

The following are examples of invalid version numbers:

|
|
1.3.a4
|
|
1.3pl1

# The rules according to Greg Stein:
|
|
# 1) a version number has 1 or more numbers separate by a period or by
|
|
# sequences of letters. If only periods, then these are compared
|
|
# left-to-right to determine an ordering.
|
|
# 2) sequences of letters are part of the tuple for comparison and are
|
|
# compared lexicographically
|
|
# 3) recognize the numeric components may have leading zeroes
|
|
#
|
|
# The LooseVersion class below implements these rules: a version number
|
|
# string is split up into a tuple of integer and string components, and
|
|
# comparison is a simple tuple comparison. This means that version
|
|
# numbers behave in a predictable and obvious way, but a way that might
|
|
# not necessarily be how people *want* version numbers to behave. There
|
|
# wouldn't be a problem if people could stick to purely numeric version
|
|
# numbers: just split on period and compare the numbers as tuples.
|
|
# However, people insist on putting letters into their version numbers;
|
|
# the most common purpose seems to be:
|
|
# - indicating a "pre-release" version
|
|
# ('alpha', 'beta', 'a', 'b', 'pre', 'p')
|
|
# - indicating a post-release patch ('p', 'pl', 'patch')
|
|
# but of course this can't cover all version number schemes, and there's
|
|
# no way to know what a programmer means without asking him.
|
|
#
|
|
# The problem is what to do with letters (and other non-numeric
|
|
# characters) in a version number. The current implementation does the
|
|
# obvious and predictable thing: keep them as strings and compare
|
|
# lexically within a tuple comparison. This has the desired effect if
|
|
# an appended letter sequence implies something "post-release":
|
|
# eg. "0.99" < "0.99pl14" < "1.0", and "5.001" < "5.001m" < "5.002".
|
|
#
|
|
# However, if letters in a version number imply a pre-release version,
|
|
# the "obvious" thing isn't correct. Eg. you would expect that
|
|
# "1.5.1" < "1.5.2a2" < "1.5.2", but under the tuple/lexical comparison
|
|
# implemented here, this just isn't so.
|
|
#
|
|
# Two possible solutions come to mind. The first is to tie the
|
|
# comparison algorithm to a particular set of semantic rules, as has
|
|
# been done in the StrictVersion class above. This works great as long
|
|
# as everyone can go along with bondage and discipline. Hopefully a
|
|
# (large) subset of Python module programmers will agree that the
|
|
# particular flavour of bondage and discipline provided by StrictVersion
|
|
# provides enough benefit to be worth using, and will submit their
|
|
# version numbering scheme to its domination. The free-thinking
|
|
# anarchists in the lot will never give in, though, and something needs
|
|
# to be done to accommodate them.
|
|
#
|
|
# Perhaps a "moderately strict" version class could be implemented that
|
|
# lets almost anything slide (syntactically), and makes some heuristic
|
|
# assumptions about non-digits in version number strings. This could
|
|
# sink into special-case-hell, though; if I was as talented and
|
|
# idiosyncratic as Larry Wall, I'd go ahead and implement a class that
|
|
# somehow knows that "1.2.1" < "1.2.2a2" < "1.2.2" < "1.2.2pl3", and is
|
|
# just as happy dealing with things like "2g6" and "1.13++". I don't
|
|
# think I'm smart enough to do it right though.
|
|
#
|
|
# In any case, I've coded the test suite for this module (see
|
|
# ../test/test_version.py) specifically to fail on things like comparing
|
|
# "1.2a2" and "1.2". That's not because the *code* is doing anything
|
|
# wrong, it's because the simple, obvious design doesn't match my
|
|
# complicated, hairy expectations for real-world version numbers. It
|
|
# would be a snap to fix the test suite to say, "Yep, LooseVersion does
|
|
# the Right Thing" (ie. the code matches the conception). But I'd rather
|
|
# have a conception that matches common notions about version numbers.
