Version Structure Reference

public struct Version

extension Version: Codable

extension Version: Hashable

extension Version: Equatable

extension Version: Comparable

extension Version: LosslessStringConvertible

A struct representing a “semver” version, that is: a Semantic Version.

The major version.
Declaration
Swift
```
public let major: Int
```
The minor version.
Declaration
Swift
```
public let minor: Int
```
The patch version.
Declaration
Swift
```
public let patch: Int
```
The pre-release identifiers (if any).
Declaration
Swift
```
public let prereleaseIdentifiers: [String]
```

The build metadatas (if any).

Declaration

Swift

public let buildMetadataIdentifiers: [String]

Create a version object.

Note
Integers are made absolute since negative integers are not allowed, yet it is conventional Swift to take Int over UInt where possible.
Declaration
Swift
```
@inlinable
public init(_ major: Int, _ minor: Int, _ patch: Int, pre: [String] = [], build: [String] = [])
```
Creates a version object.

Note
Integers are made absolute since negative integers are not allowed, yet it is conventional Swift to take Int over UInt where possible.
Declaration
Swift
```
@inlinable
public init(major: Int, minor: Int, patch: Int, prereleaseIdentifiers: [String] = [], buildMetadataIdentifiers: [String] = [])
```
Represents 0.0.0
Declaration
Swift
```
public static let null: Version
```

Declaration

Swift

public init(from decoder: Decoder) throws

Declaration

Swift

public func encode(to encoder: Encoder) throws

Declaration

Swift

public func hash(into hasher: inout Hasher)

Compares the provided versions without comparing any build-metadata
Declaration
Swift
```
public static func == (lhs: Version, rhs: Version) -> Bool
```
1.0.0 is less than 1.0.1, 1.0.1-alpha is less than 1.0.1 but greater than 1.0.0.
Declaration
Swift
```
public static func < (lhs: Version, rhs: Version) -> Bool
```
Return Value

true if lhs is less than rhs

Creates a version object from a string.

Note

Returns nil if the string is not a valid semantic version.

Declaration

Swift

public init?(_ string: String)

Parameters


                                string

The string to parse.

Undocumented

Declaration

Swift

public init?<S>(_ string: S) where S : StringProtocol

Returns the lossless string representation of this semantic version.
Declaration
Swift
```
public var description: String { get }
```

Creates a version object.

Declaration

Swift

init?<S>(tolerant: S) where S : StringProtocol
