Changelog
---------

*unreleased*
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Features:

* Add a public :class:`~packaging.ranges.VersionRange` API and
  :meth:`SpecifierSet.to_range() <packaging.specifiers.SpecifierSet.to_range>`,
  representing the versions a specifier set accepts as an interval set that
  supports intersection, union, complement, membership tests, and filtering.
  :meth:`~packaging.ranges.VersionRange.to_specifier_set` converts a range back
  to a :class:`~packaging.specifiers.SpecifierSet` where a PEP 440 form exists.
  (:pull:`1267`, :pull:`1270`)
* Add a ``limit`` argument to ``parse_tag()`` for compressed tag sets.
  (:issue:`1220`)

Behavior adaptations:

* Prefer native ``linux_*`` platform tags over ``manylinux`` and ``musllinux``
  tags on Linux. (:issue:`160`)

Fixes:

* Make ``Requirement.__hash__`` consistent with ``__eq__`` for
  trailing-zero-equivalent specifiers (e.g. ``foo==1.0.0`` and
  ``foo==1.0.0.0``), so equal requirements hash equal and deduplicate in
  sets and dicts. (:pull:`1232`)
* Percent-decode ``pylock`` artifact file names derived from a ``url`` so that
  local versions (e.g. a wheel with ``2.12.1+cu130`` encoded as ``2.12.1%2Bcu130``)
  yield a valid file name.
* Normalize requested extra names before comparing or hashing requirements (:issue:`644`)
* Preserve a ``Requirement``'s specifier ``prereleases`` override across a
  pickle round trip. (:issue:`1204`)

26.2 - 2026-04-24

Fixes:

* Fix incorrect sysconfig var name for pyemscripten in (:pull:`1160`)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Fix a regression in parsing requirements with whitespaces between the comma
  separators.


16.4 - 2016-02-22
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Fix a regression in parsing requirements like ``foo (==4)``.


16.3 - 2016-02-21

  Version 2.0 or a 2 Clause BSD license.

* Support installation of packaging when only distutils is available.

* Fix ``==`` comparison when there is a prefix and a local version in play.
  (:issue:`41`).

* Implement environment markers from PEP 508.


15.3 - 2015-08-01
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Normalize post-release spellings for rev/r prefixes. :issue:`35`


15.2 - 2015-05-13
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Fix an error where the arbitrary specifier (``===``) was not correctly
  allowing pre-releases when it was being used.

* Expose the specifier and version parts through properties on the
  ``Specifier`` classes.

* Allow iterating over the ``SpecifierSet`` to get access to all of the
  ``Specifier`` instances.

* Allow testing if a version is contained within a specifier via the ``in``
  operator.


15.1 - 2015-04-13
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Fix a logic error that was causing inconsistent answers about whether or not
  a pre-release was contained within a ``SpecifierSet`` or not.


15.0 - 2015-01-02
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Add ``Version().is_postrelease`` and ``LegacyVersion().is_postrelease`` to
  make it easy to determine if a release is a post release.

* Add ``Version().base_version`` and ``LegacyVersion().base_version`` to make
  it easy to get the public version without any pre or post release markers.

* Support the update to PEP 440 which removed the implied ``!=V.*`` when using
  either ``>V`` or ``<V`` and which instead special cased the handling of
  pre-releases, post-releases, and local versions when using ``>V`` or ``<V``.


14.5 - 2014-12-17
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Normalize release candidates as ``rc`` instead of ``c``.

* Expose the ``VERSION_PATTERN`` constant, a regular expression matching
  a valid version.

  specifier with a less than (``<``) or greater than (``>``) operator.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* **BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE** Refactor specifier support so that it can sanely
  handle legacy specifiers as well as PEP 440 specifiers.

* **BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE** Move the specifier support out of
  ``packaging.version`` into ``packaging.specifiers``.


14.2 - 2014-09-10
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Add prerelease support to ``Specifier``.
* Remove the ability to do ``item in Specifier()`` and replace it with
  ``Specifier().contains(item)`` in order to allow flags that signal if a
  prerelease should be accepted or not.
* Add a method ``Specifier().filter()`` which will take an iterable and returns
  an iterable with items that do not match the specifier filtered out.


14.1 - 2014-09-08
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Allow ``LegacyVersion`` and ``Version`` to be sorted together.
* Add ``packaging.version.parse()`` to enable easily parsing a version string
  as either a ``Version`` or a ``LegacyVersion`` depending on it's PEP 440
  validity.


14.0 - 2014-09-05
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Initial release.
