SemanticPuppet

Library of useful tools for working with Semantic Versions and module dependencies.

Library of tools used by Puppet to parse, validate, and compare Semantic Versions and Version Ranges and to query and resolve module dependencies.

For sparse, but accurate documentation, please see the docs directory.

This library is used by a number of Puppet Labs projects, including Puppet and r10k.

semantic_puppet will work on Ruby version 2.7 and greater.

No gem/library requirements.

For general use, you should install semantic_puppet from Ruby gems:

gem install semantic_puppet

If you have more specific needs or plan on modifying semantic_puppet you can install it out of a git repository:

git clone git://github.com/puppetlabs/semantic_puppet

SemanticPuppet is intended to be used as a library.

SemanticPuppet will support the same version range operators as those used when publishing modules to Puppet Forge which is documented at Publishing Modules on the Puppet Forge.

Pieter van de Bruggen wrote the library originally. See https://github.com/puppetlabs/semantic_puppet/graphs/contributors for a list of contributors.
