hydrogen-version: Hydrogen Version Type
A sane replacement for Data.Version from the base
package.
Hydrogen.Version is also exported by Hydrogen.Prelude where it comes with a few more instances (e.g. for Data.Serialize).
>>>
Differences to Data.Version
Sane
Ord
instance- Data.Version relies on
Ord
for lists, which will consider1.0
to be less than1.0.0
.Hydrogen.Version
considers these to be equal. Sane
Read
andShow
instances- With
Hydrogen.Version
you can just doread "1.0.0" :: Version
, whereas theRead
andShow
instances for Data.Version do not give a concise representation:
show hydrogenVersion == "1.0.0" show dataVersion == "Version versionBranch = [1,0,0], versionTags = []"
Stricter API
- In
Hydrogen.Version
you can create aVersion
only viamkVersion
, whereas in Data.Version the constructor is exported, thus you could so such nonsense asData.Version.Version [] []
(which is not a proper version at all). No Tags
Hydrogen.Version
does not support tags. This is intentional, since there is no agreed upon definition forOrd
in the presence of tags (consideralpha
vsbeta
vssnapshot
vsga
vs ...).
