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";
        }
