Version Component
The Version component allows you an easy way to parse and compare versions. It supports both Semversion and package manager syntax.
Installation
Usage
The base Version
supports semver standards.
<?php
use SonsOfPHP\Component\Version\Version;
// You can create versions two different ways
$version = new Version('1.2.3');
$version = Version::from('1.2.3');
echo $version; // prints "1.2.3"
$versionString = $version->toString(); // $versionString === "1.2.3"
// Easy API
$major = $version->getMajor(); // $major === 1
$minor = $version->getMinor(); // $minor === 2
$patch = $version->getPatch(); // $patch === 3
// Comparing Versions is easy too
$currentVersion = new Version('1.1.1');
$latestVersion = new Version('1.1.2');
// if $latestVersion > $currentVersion
if ($latestVersion->isGreaterThan($currentVersion)) {
// run upgrade
}
// Also supports "isLessThan" and "isEqualTo"
Advanced Usage
You can also use Pre-release and Build Metadata with your versions.
<?php
use SonsOfPHP\Component\Version\Version;
// Create a new Version that includes Pre-release and/or Build Metadata
$version = new Version('1.2.3-RC1+buildMetaData');
// You can grab the info as well
$preRelease = $version->getPreRelease(); // $preRelease === "RC1"
$build = $version->getBuild(); // $build === "RC1"
