NAME
URI::VersionRange::Constraint - Version Constraint for Version Range Specification
SYNOPSIS
use URI::VersionRange::Constraint;
# OO-interface
$constraint = URI::VersionRange::Constraint->new(
comparator => '>',
version => '2.00'
);
say $constraint; # >2.00
# Parse "vers" string
$constraint = URI::VersionRange::Constraint->from_string('>2.00');
DESCRIPTION
A version range specifier (aka. "vers") is a URI string using the vers
URI-scheme with this syntax:
vers:<versioning-scheme>/<version-constraint>|<version-constraint>|...
vers
is the URI-scheme and is an acronym for "VErsion Range Specifier".
The pipe "|" is used as a simple separator between version-constraint
. Each version-constraint
in this pipe-separated list contains a comparator and a version:
<comparator:version>
This list of version-constraint
are signposts in the version timeline of a package that specify version intervals.
A version
satisfies a version range specifier if it is contained within any of the intervals defined by these version-constraint
.

OBJECT-ORIENTED INTERFACE
- $constraint = URI::VersionRange::Constraint->new( comparator => STRING, version => STRING )
-
Create new URI::VersionRange::Constraint instance.
- $constraint->comparator
-
Return the comparator.
- $constraint->version
-
Return the version string.
- $vers->to_string
-
Stringify
vers
components. - $vers->to_human_string
-
Convert the constraint into human-readable format.
$constraint = URI::VersionRange::Constraint->new( comparator => '>=', version => '2.10' ); say $constraint->to_human_string; # greater than or equal 2.10
- $vers->TO_JSON
-
Helper method for JSON modules (JSON, JSON::PP, JSON::XS, Mojo::JSON, etc).
use Mojo::JSON qw(encode_json); say encode_json($constraint); # {"comparator":">","version":"2.00"}
- $vers = URI::VersionRange::Constraint->from_string($vers_string);
-
Converts the given "constraint" string to URI::VersionRange::Constraint object. Croaks on error.
