#![allow(clippy::bool_assert_comparison)]

//! Usage examples of the version-compare crate.
//!
//! This shows various ways this library provides for comparing version numbers.
//! The `assert_eq!(...)` macros are used to assert and show the expected output.
//!
//! Run this example by invoking `cargo run --example example`.

use version_compare::{compare, compare_to, Cmp, Version};

fn main() {
    let a = "1.2";

    // The following comparison operators are used:
    // - Cmp::Eq -> Equal
    // - Cmp::Ne -> Not equal
    // - Cmp::Lt -> Less than
    // - Cmp::Le -> Less than or equal
    // - Cmp::Ge -> Greater than or equal
    // - Cmp::Gt -> Greater than

    // Easily compare version strings

    assert_eq!(compare_to(a, b, Cmp::Le), Ok(true));

    // Parse and wrap version strings as a Version
    let a = Version::from(a).unwrap();
    let b = Version::from(b).unwrap();

    // The Version can easily be compared with
