Version

Represents a version number and provides an easy way to compare if the app.version is greater or equal than a specific expected version. Example:

if app.version >= Version("1.2.10-beta4") then
  ...
end

Version()

local v = Version("1.2.10")

You can create a new version from a string. Then access each field

local v = Version("1.2.9")
assert(v.major == 1)

v = Version("2")
assert(v.major == 2)

Returns the first number of the version.

local v = Version("1.2.9")
assert(v.minor == 2)

v = Version("2")
assert(v.minor == 0)

Returns the second number of the version.

local v = Version("1.2.9")
assert(v.patch == 9)

v = Version("2")
assert(v.patch == 0)

Returns the third number of the version.

local v = Version("1.2.10-beta4")
assert(v.prereleaseLabel == "beta")

v = Version("2")
assert(v.prereleaseLabel == "")

Returns the pre-release label/keyword. For official releases it's an empty string, in other cases it might be "alpha", "beta", "dev", etc.

local v = Version("1.2.10-beta4")
assert(v.prereleaseNumber == 4)

v = Version("2")
assert(v.prereleaseNumber == 0)

Returns the pre-release version.
