TypeScript definitions for semver
The @types/semver package provides TypeScript type definitions for the semver package, which is a utility for handling semantic versions. It allows developers to parse, compare, and manipulate semantic versions in TypeScript projects with type safety.
Parsing a version
This feature allows you to parse a semantic version string and access its components, such as the major, minor, and patch versions.
"import semver from 'semver';\nconst version = semver.parse('1.2.3');\nconsole.log(version.major); // 1"Comparing versions
This feature enables you to compare two semantic version strings and determine their order.
"import semver from 'semver';\nconst result = semver.compare('1.2.3', '1.2.4');\nconsole.log(result); // -1"Satisfying ranges
This functionality allows you to check if a semantic version satisfies a given version range.
"import semver from 'semver';\nconst satisfied = semver.satisfies('1.2.3', '^1.0.0');\nconsole.log(satisfied); // true"This package provides functionality for comparing version numbers. While it offers similar version comparison capabilities, it lacks the broader feature set of semver, such as range checking and version parsing.
A simple package for comparing version strings. It is more lightweight than semver but does not support semantic versioning's pre-release and build metadata.
