NAME

CPAN::Audit::Version - the infrastructure to compare versions and version ranges

SYNOPSIS

use CPAN::Audit::Version;

my $cav = CPAN::Audit::Version->new;

$cav->in_range( $version, $range );

DESCRIPTION

Class methods

• new

  Create a new object. This ignores all arguments.

Instance methods

• affected_versions( ARRAY_REF, RANGE )

  Given an array reference of versions, return a list of all of the versions in ARRAY_REF that are in RANGE. This is really a filter on ARRAY_REF using the values for which in_range returns true.

  my @matching = $cav->affected_versions( \@versions, $range );

• in_range( VERSION, RANGE )

  Returns true if VERSION is contained in RANGE, and false otherwise. VERSION is any sort of Perl, such as 1.23 or 1.2.3. The RANGE is a comma-separated list of range specifications using the comparators <, <=, ==, >, >=, or !=. For example, >=1.23,<1.45, ==1.23, or >1.23.

  my $version = 5.67;
  my $range = '>=5,<6'; # so, all the versions in 5.x
  
  if( $cav->in_range( $version, $range ) ) {
  	say "$version is within $range";
  	}
  else {
  	say "$version is not within $range";
  }
