Buildx currently returns the Docker Engine version for the docker driver and it can be confusing. This is because BuildKit before 0.11 version does not support the Info API that returns the BuildKit version. This change resolves the BuildKit version from the Docker engine one.

# SemVer
|
|
|
|
The `semver` package provides the ability to work with [Semantic Versions](http://semver.org) in Go. Specifically it provides the ability to:
|
|
|
|
* Parse semantic versions
|
|
* Sort semantic versions
|
|
* Check if a semantic version fits within a set of constraints
|
|
* Optionally work with a `v` prefix

|
## Package Versions
|
|
|
|
There are three major versions fo the `semver` package.
|
|
|
|
* 3.x.x is the new stable and active version. This version is focused on constraint
|
|
compatibility for range handling in other tools from other languages. It has
|
|
a similar API to the v1 releases. The development of this version is on the master
|
|
branch. The documentation for this version is below.
|
|
* 2.x was developed primarily for [dep](https://github.com/golang/dep). There are
|
|
no tagged releases and the development was performed by [@sdboyer](https://github.com/sdboyer).
|
|
There are API breaking changes from v1. This version lives on the [2.x branch](https://github.com/Masterminds/semver/tree/2.x).
|
|
* 1.x.x is the most widely used version with numerous tagged releases. This is the
|
|
previous stable and is still maintained for bug fixes. The development, to fix
|
|
bugs, occurs on the release-1 branch. You can read the documentation [here](https://github.com/Masterminds/semver/blob/release-1/README.md).
|
|
|
|
## Parsing Semantic Versions
|
|
|
|
There are two functions that can parse semantic versions. The `StrictNewVersion`
|
|
function only parses valid version 2 semantic versions as outlined in the
|
|
specification. The `NewVersion` function attempts to coerce a version into a
|
|
semantic version and parse it. For example, if there is a leading v or a version
|
|
listed without all 3 parts (e.g. `v1.2`) it will attempt to coerce it into a valid
|
|
semantic version (e.g., 1.2.0). In both cases a `Version` object is returned
|
|
that can be sorted, compared, and used in constraints.
|
|
|
|
When parsing a version an error is returned if there is an issue parsing the
|
|
version. For example,
|
|
|
|
v, err := semver.NewVersion("1.2.3-beta.1+build345")
|
|
|
|
The version object has methods to get the parts of the version, compare it to
|
|
other versions, convert the version back into a string, and get the original
|
|
string. Getting the original string is useful if the semantic version was coerced
|
|
into a valid form.
|
|
|
|
## Sorting Semantic Versions
|
|
|
|
A set of versions can be sorted using the `sort` package from the standard library.
|
|
For example,
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
raw := []string{"1.2.3", "1.0", "1.3", "2", "0.4.2",}
|
|
vs := make([]*semver.Version, len(raw))
|
|
for i, r := range raw {
|
|
v, err := semver.NewVersion(r)
|
|
if err != nil {
|
|
t.Errorf("Error parsing version: %s", err)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
vs[i] = v
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
sort.Sort(semver.Collection(vs))
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Checking Version Constraints
|
|
|
|
There are two methods for comparing versions. One uses comparison methods on
|
|
`Version` instances and the other uses `Constraints`. There are some important
|
|
differences to notes between these two methods of comparison.
|
|
|
|
1. When two versions are compared using functions such as `Compare`, `LessThan`,
|
|
and others it will follow the specification and always include prereleases
|
|
within the comparison. It will provide an answer that is valid with the
|
|
comparison section of the spec at https://semver.org/#spec-item-11
|
|
2. When constraint checking is used for checks or validation it will follow a
|
|
different set of rules that are common for ranges with tools like npm/js
|
|
and Rust/Cargo. This includes considering prereleases to be invalid if the
|
|
ranges does not include one. If you want to have it include pre-releases a
|
|
simple solution is to include `-0` in your range.
|
|
3. Constraint ranges can have some complex rules including the shorthand use of
|
|
~ and ^. For more details on those see the options below.
|
|
|
|
There are differences between the two methods or checking versions because the
|
|
comparison methods on `Version` follow the specification while comparison ranges
|
|
are not part of the specification. Different packages and tools have taken it
|
|
upon themselves to come up with range rules. This has resulted in differences.
|
|
For example, npm/js and Cargo/Rust follow similar patterns while PHP has a
|
|
different pattern for ^. The comparison features in this package follow the
|
|
npm/js and Cargo/Rust lead because applications using it have followed similar
|
|
patters with their versions.
|
|
|
|
Checking a version against version constraints is one of the most featureful
|
|
parts of the package.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
c, err := semver.NewConstraint(">= 1.2.3")
|
|
if err != nil {
|
|
// Handle constraint not being parsable.
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
v, err := semver.NewVersion("1.3")
|
|
if err != nil {
|
|
// Handle version not being parsable.
|
|
}
|
|
// Check if the version meets the constraints. The a variable will be true.
|
|
a := c.Check(v)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Basic Comparisons
|
|
|
|
There are two elements to the comparisons. First, a comparison string is a list
|
|
of space or comma separated AND comparisons. These are then separated by || (OR)
|
|
comparisons. For example, `">= 1.2 < 3.0.0 || >= 4.2.3"` is looking for a
|
|
comparison that's greater than or equal to 1.2 and less than 3.0.0 or is
|
|
greater than or equal to 4.2.3.
|
|
|
|
The basic comparisons are:
|
|
|
|
* `=`: equal (aliased to no operator)
|
|
* `!=`: not equal
|
|
* `>`: greater than
|
|
* `<`: less than
|
|
* `>=`: greater than or equal to
|
|
* `<=`: less than or equal to
|
|
|
|
### Working With Prerelease Versions
|
|
|
|
Pre-releases, for those not familiar with them, are used for software releases
|
|
prior to stable or generally available releases. Examples of prereleases include
|
|
development, alpha, beta, and release candidate releases. A prerelease may be
|
|
a version such as `1.2.3-beta.1` while the stable release would be `1.2.3`. In the
|
|
order of precedence, prereleases come before their associated releases. In this
|
|
example `1.2.3-beta.1 < 1.2.3`.
|
|
|
|
According to the Semantic Version specification prereleases may not be
|
|
API compliant with their release counterpart. It says,
|
|
|
|
> A pre-release version indicates that the version is unstable and might not satisfy the intended compatibility requirements as denoted by its associated normal version.
|
|
|
|
SemVer comparisons using constraints without a prerelease comparator will skip
|
|
prerelease versions. For example, `>=1.2.3` will skip prereleases when looking
|
|
at a list of releases while `>=1.2.3-0` will evaluate and find prereleases.
|
|
|
|
The reason for the `0` as a pre-release version in the example comparison is
|
|
because pre-releases can only contain ASCII alphanumerics and hyphens (along with
|
|
`.` separators), per the spec. Sorting happens in ASCII sort order, again per the
|
|
spec. The lowest character is a `0` in ASCII sort order
|
|
(see an [ASCII Table](http://www.asciitable.com/))
|
|
|
|
Understanding ASCII sort ordering is important because A-Z comes before a-z. That
|
|
means `>=1.2.3-BETA` will return `1.2.3-alpha`. What you might expect from case
|
|
sensitivity doesn't apply here. This is due to ASCII sort ordering which is what
|
|
the spec specifies.
|
|
|
|
### Hyphen Range Comparisons
|
|
|
|
There are multiple methods to handle ranges and the first is hyphens ranges.
|
|
These look like:
|
|
|
|
* `1.2 - 1.4.5` which is equivalent to `>= 1.2 <= 1.4.5`
|
|
* `2.3.4 - 4.5` which is equivalent to `>= 2.3.4 <= 4.5`
|
|
|
|
### Wildcards In Comparisons
|
|
|
|
The `x`, `X`, and `*` characters can be used as a wildcard character. This works
|
|
for all comparison operators. When used on the `=` operator it falls
|
|
back to the patch level comparison (see tilde below). For example,
|
|
|
|
* `1.2.x` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.0, < 1.3.0`
|
|
* `>= 1.2.x` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.0`
|
|
* `<= 2.x` is equivalent to `< 3`
|
|
* `*` is equivalent to `>= 0.0.0`
|
|
|
|
### Tilde Range Comparisons (Patch)
|
|
|
|
The tilde (`~`) comparison operator is for patch level ranges when a minor
|
|
version is specified and major level changes when the minor number is missing.
|
|
For example,
|
|
|
|
* `~1.2.3` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.3, < 1.3.0`
|
|
* `~1` is equivalent to `>= 1, < 2`
|
|
* `~2.3` is equivalent to `>= 2.3, < 2.4`
|
|
* `~1.2.x` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.0, < 1.3.0`
|
|
* `~1.x` is equivalent to `>= 1, < 2`
|
|
|
|
### Caret Range Comparisons (Major)
|
|
|
|
The caret (`^`) comparison operator is for major level changes once a stable
|
|
(1.0.0) release has occurred. Prior to a 1.0.0 release the minor versions acts
|
|
as the API stability level. This is useful when comparisons of API versions as a
|
|
major change is API breaking. For example,
|
|
|
|
* `^1.2.3` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.3, < 2.0.0`
|
|
* `^1.2.x` is equivalent to `>= 1.2.0, < 2.0.0`
|
|
* `^2.3` is equivalent to `>= 2.3, < 3`
|
|
* `^2.x` is equivalent to `>= 2.0.0, < 3`
|
|
* `^0.2.3` is equivalent to `>=0.2.3 <0.3.0`
|
|
* `^0.2` is equivalent to `>=0.2.0 <0.3.0`
|
|
* `^0.0.3` is equivalent to `>=0.0.3 <0.0.4`
|
|
* `^0.0` is equivalent to `>=0.0.0 <0.1.0`
|
|
* `^0` is equivalent to `>=0.0.0 <1.0.0`
|
|
|
|
## Validation
|
|
|
|
In addition to testing a version against a constraint, a version can be validated
|
|
against a constraint. When validation fails a slice of errors containing why a
|
|
version didn't meet the constraint is returned. For example,
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
c, err := semver.NewConstraint("<= 1.2.3, >= 1.4")
|
|
if err != nil {
|
|
// Handle constraint not being parseable.
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
v, err := semver.NewVersion("1.3")
|
|
if err != nil {
|
|
// Handle version not being parseable.
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Validate a version against a constraint.
|
|
a, msgs := c.Validate(v)
|
|
// a is false
|
|
for _, m := range msgs {
|
|
fmt.Println(m)
|
|
|
|
// Loops over the errors which would read
|
|
// "1.3 is greater than 1.2.3"
|
|
// "1.3 is less than 1.4"
|
|
}
|
|
```
