CheckVersions is a powerful and intuitive version comparison tool designed to simplify the process of discerning the latest and older versions in software development.
-
Semantic Version Analysis: 🧐 Leverage our sophisticated semantic versioning analysis engine to compare versions like "0.0.0-beta" effortlessly.
-
Automated Version Ranking: 🚀 CheckVersions automatically ranks versions based on their priority, allowing you to quickly identify the latest version.
-
Efficient Version Delta Assessment: 📊 CheckVersions provides a simple and efficient way to assess the difference between two versions.
-
User-Friendly Interface: 🎨 Our intuitive user interface ensures that developers can effortlessly compare versions.
-
Secure Version Analysis: 🔒 Security is paramount. CheckVersions ensures version comparison is performed securely, protecting your intellectual property and facilitating risk-free decision-making in your development process.
-
Custom Hierarchy 📝 Customize the hierarchy of version words to suit your needs. For instance, you can assign a higher priority to "beta" than "alpha" if you wish.
-
Older Version Retrieval: ⏳ Optionally retrieve the older version when comparing two versions by setting the
older_versionparameter toTrue.

# Example 1: Basic Version Comparison
current_version = "v1.0.0"
latest_version = "v1.0.0-beta"
result = compare_versions(current_version, latest_version)
print(result)
# Output: v1.0.0In this example, we demonstrate a basic version comparison. The compare_versions function is used to compare the current_version (v1.0.0) with the latest_version (v1.0.0-beta). The result is printed, and it shows that the latest version is v1.0.0.
from checkversions import *
# Example 2: Comparing Versions with Hyphens and Words
version1 = "2.0.0-beta"
version2 = "2.0.1-alpha"
result = compare_versions(version1, version2)
print(result)
# Output: 2.0.1-alphaIn this example, we showcase version comparison with hyphens and additional words. The compare_versions function compares version1 (2.0.0-beta) with version2 (2.0.1-alpha). The result is printed, indicating that the latest version is 2.0.1-alpha.
{
"beta": 0,
"prerelease": 1,
"alpha": 2,
"unstable": 3,
"stable": 4,
"release": 5
}
The default hierarchy is a JSON representation that assigns priority values to version words. For instance, "beta" has a priority of 0, "prerelease" has a priority of 1, and so on.

# Example 3: Custom Hierarchy
# Define a custom hierarchy
custom_hierarchy = {"beta": 0, "alpha": 1, "rc": 2, "gamma": 3, "stable": 4}
version1 = "v1.0.0-beta"
version2 = "v1.0.1-alpha"
result = compare_versions(version1, version2, custom_hierarchy)
print(result)
# Output: v1.0.1-alphaIn this example, we introduce a custom hierarchy for version comparison. The custom_hierarchy dictionary is defined with version words and their corresponding priority. The compare_versions function uses this custom hierarchy to compare version1 (v1.0.0-beta) with version2 (v1.0.1-alpha). The result is printed, indicating that the latest version is v1.0.1-alpha.
from checkversions import *
current_version = "v1.0.0"
latest_version = "v1.0.0-beta"
# Example with older_version=True
result_older = compare_versions(current_version, latest_version, older_version=True)
print(f"Older version: {result_older}")
# Output: Older version: v1.0.0-betaIn this example, by setting older_version=True, the function returns and prints the older version (v1.0.0-beta) based on the provided versions (v1.0.0 and v1.0.0-beta). If older_version is omitted or set to False, it would return and print the latest version.
