Comparing Versions

Use the cmp command to check ordinality of two semantic versions. The command will output true or false to stdout. The process exit code is also set to 1 for commands that output false.

$ semver cmp 1.2.3 gt 1.2.0
true

$ semver cmp 1.2.3 lt 1.2.0
false

$ semver cmp 1.2.3 gte 1.2.3
true

$ semver cmp 1.2.3 lte 1.2.2
false

$ semver cmp 1.2.3 eq 1.2.3
true

Comparing versions in another shell script

#!/usr/bin/env bash

set -e

old_version () {
  echo "old version detected"
}

new_version () {
  echo "new version detected"
}

semver cmp $1 gt $2 > /dev/null \
  && new_version \
  || old_version
