DpkgVersion

Swift implementation of robust dpkg semi-semantic version management.

Features

• Parse Debian package version strings (epoch:version-revision format)
• Validate version strings according to Debian policy
• Compare version strings using the same algorithm as dpkg
• Written in pure Swift with no dependencies

Usage

Add the following to your Package.swift file:

dependencies: [
    .package(url: "https://github.com/Lakr233/DpkgVersion.git", from: "1.0.0")
]

Then import the library in your Swift file:

import DpkgVersion

Comparing Version Strings

import DpkgVersion

#expect(Version.compare("1.0.0", "1.0.0+1") < 0)
#expect(Version.compare("1.0.0+2", "1.0.0+1") > 0)
#expect(Version.compare("1.0.0+", "1.0.0+") == 0)
