Question for all: analogues

[mwriter]

Since the issue #174 has been closed, I have another question.
I'm interested in any other libraries that can work correctly with arbitrary types of versions. I hope there are such examples.

Didn't quite get the meaning of "arbitrary types of versions", can you elaborate on that ?

You are welcome to contribute onto the repository for that support and we will be happy to review

It seems to me that everything is described in the previous issue #174

v1
v1.2
v1.2.3
v1.2.3.4
v1.2.3.4.5

I haven't yet come across another such project that supports all these types of versions.

So I have to understand the whole project completely, instead of you making trivial changes yourself? :)

I looked into your code after all :)

Here it's necessary to remove these three lines

go-version/version.go

Line 94 in 505335e

for i := len(segments); i < 3; i++ {

And rewrite Core method, maybe as

func (v *Version) Core() *Version {
	segments := v.Segments64()
	l := len(segments)
	var major, minor, patch int64
	if l > 0 {
		major = segments[0]
		if l > 1 {
			minor = segments[1]
			if l > 2 {
				patch = segments[2]
			}
		}
	}
	segmentsOnly := fmt.Sprintf("%d.%d.%d", major, minor, patch)
	return Must(NewVersion(segmentsOnly))
}

And maybe rewrite

func (v *Version) bytes() []byte {
	l := len(v.segments)
	lm := max(l, 3)
	var buf []byte
	var s int64
	for i := 0; i < lm; i++ {
		s = 0
		if i < l {
			s = v.segments[i]
		}
		if i > 0 {
			buf = append(buf, '.')
		}
		buf = strconv.AppendInt(buf, s, 10)
	}

	if v.pre != "" {
		buf = append(buf, '-')
		buf = append(buf, v.pre...)
	}

	if v.metadata != "" {
		buf = append(buf, '+')
		buf = append(buf, v.metadata...)
	}

	return buf
}

You certainly have a good implementation, you yourself commented on the location of the problem :)
