AwesomeVersion
One version package to rule them all, One version package to find them, One version package to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them.
Make anything a version object, and compare against a vast section of other version formats.
Installation
python3 -m pip install awesomeversion
AwesomeVersion class
The AwesomeVersion class takes a version as the first argument, you can also pass in additional kwargs to customize the version object.
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
version |
The version string to parse. |
ensure_strategy |
Match the AwesomeVersion object against spesific strategies when creating if. If it does not match AwesomeVersionStrategyException will be raised |
find_first_match |

AwesomeVersion methods
AwesomeVersion.in_range
This is a helper method to check if the version is in a range.
This method takes two arguments, lowest and highest, both are required, and returns a boolean.
Note This method is the same as doing
lowest <= AwesomeVersion <= highest
Example:
from awesomeversion import AwesomeVersion
print(AwesomeVersion("1.2.2").in_range("1.2.1", "1.3"))
> True
print(AwesomeVersion("1.2.0").in_range("1.2.1", "1.3"))
> False
AwesomeVersion.diff
This is a helper method to get the difference between two versions.
This method takes one argument which is the version to compare against, and returns a AwesomeVersionDiff object.
Note This method is the same as doing
AwesomeVersion - version
Example:
from awesomeversion import AwesomeVersion
> print(AwesomeVersion("1.0").diff("2.1"))
AwesomeVersionDiff(major=True, minor=True, patch=False, modifier=False, strategy=False)
AwesomeVersion.section
This is a helper method to get a section of the version. This method takes one argument which is the section to get, and returns an integer representing it (or 0 if it does not exist).
Example:
from awesomeversion import AwesomeVersion
> print(AwesomeVersion("1.0").section(0))
1

Example usage
Here are some examples of how you can use this package, more examples can be found in the tests directory.
Basic compare
from awesomeversion import AwesomeVersion
current = AwesomeVersion("1.2.2")
upstream = AwesomeVersion("1.2.3")
print(upstream > current)
> True
Compare beta version
from awesomeversion import AwesomeVersion
current = AwesomeVersion("2021.1.0")
upstream = AwesomeVersion("2021.1.0b2")
print(current > upstream)
> True
Check if version is a beta version
from awesomeversion import AwesomeVersion
print(AwesomeVersion("1.2.3b0").beta)
> True
print(AwesomeVersion("1.2.3").beta)
> False
Use AwesomeVersion with with ...
from awesomeversion import AwesomeVersion
with AwesomeVersion("20.12.0") as current:
with AwesomeVersion("20.12.1") as upstream:
print(upstream > current)
> True
Compare AwesomeVersion with other non-AwesomeVersion formats
from awesomeversion import AwesomeVersion
base = AwesomeVersion("20.12.0")
print(base > "20.12.1")
> False
print(base > "19")
> True
print(base > 5)
> True
General behavior
You can test your versions on the demo page.
Modifiers
When comparing versions with modifiers, if the base version is the same the modifier will be used to determine the order. If one of the versions do not have a modifier, the one without will be considered newer.
The order of the modifiers are:
- No modifier
- RC
- Beta
- Alpha
- Dev
Examples
from awesomeversion import AwesomeVersion
print(AwesomeVersion("1.0.0") > AwesomeVersion("1.0.0b6"))
> True
print(AwesomeVersion("1.0.0") > AwesomeVersion("1.0.0.dev6"))
> True
print(AwesomeVersion("1.0.0.dev19") > AwesomeVersion("1.0.0b4"))
> False
Special versions (container)
There are some special versions for container that are handled differently than typical version formats. The special versions are in the following order:
dev(newest)latestbetastable(oldest)
If only the first version is this special version, it will be considered newer. If only the second version is this special version, it will be considered older.
Examples
from awesomeversion import AwesomeVersion
print(AwesomeVersion("latest") > AwesomeVersion("1.0.0b6"))
> True
print(AwesomeVersion("1.0.0") > AwesomeVersion("latest"))
> False
print(AwesomeVersion("stable") > AwesomeVersion("latest"))
> False
print(AwesomeVersion("beta") > AwesomeVersion("dev"))
> False
