Specifiers
==========

A core requirement of dealing with dependencies is the ability to
specify what versions of a dependency are acceptable for you.

See `Version Specifiers Specification`_ for more details on the exact
format implemented in this module, for use in Python Packaging tooling.

.. _Version Specifiers Specification: https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/version-specifiers/

Usage
-----

.. doctest::

    >>> from packaging.specifiers import SpecifierSet
    >>> from packaging.version import Version
    >>> spec1 = SpecifierSet("~=1.0")
    >>> spec1
    <SpecifierSet('~=1.0')>
    >>> spec2 = SpecifierSet(">=1.0")
    >>> spec2
    <SpecifierSet('>=1.0')>
    >>> # We can combine specifiers
    >>> combined_spec = spec1 & spec2
    >>> combined_spec
    <SpecifierSet('>=1.0,~=1.0')>
    >>> # We can also implicitly combine a string specifier
    >>> combined_spec &= "!=1.1"
    >>> combined_spec
    <SpecifierSet('!=1.1,>=1.0,~=1.0')>
    >>> # We can iterate over the SpecifierSet to recover the
    >>> # individual specifiers
    >>> sorted(combined_spec, key=str)
    [<Specifier('!=1.1')>, <Specifier('>=1.0')>, <Specifier('~=1.0')>]
    >>> # Create a few versions to check for contains.
    >>> v1 = Version("1.0a5")
    >>> v2 = Version("1.0")
    >>> # We can check a version object to see if it falls within a specifier
    >>> v1 in combined_spec
    False
    >>> v2 in combined_spec
    True
    >>> # We can even do the same with a string based version
    >>> "1.4" in combined_spec
    True
    >>> # Finally we can filter a list of versions to get only those which are
    >>> # contained within our specifier.
    >>> list(combined_spec.filter([v1, v2, "1.4"]))
    [<Version('1.0')>, '1.4']
    >>> # We can check if a specifier set can never be satisfied
    >>> SpecifierSet(">=2.0,<1.0").is_unsatisfiable()
    True
    >>> SpecifierSet(">=1.0,<2.0").is_unsatisfiable()
    False
    >>> # Compound sets built with ``&`` may also become unsatisfiable
    >>> (SpecifierSet(">=3.9,<4.0") & SpecifierSet("==3.12.*")).is_unsatisfiable()
    False
    >>> (SpecifierSet(">=3.13,<4.0") & SpecifierSet("==3.12.*")).is_unsatisfiable()
    True
    >>> # We can convert a specifier set into a set-algebra VersionRange
    >>> SpecifierSet(">=1.0,<2.0").to_range()
    <VersionRange '[1.0, 2.0.dev0)'>
    >>> # Or ask set-relation questions directly
    >>> SpecifierSet(">=3.12,<3.13").is_subset(SpecifierSet(">=3.12"))
    True
    >>> SpecifierSet(">=3.12").is_superset(SpecifierSet(">=3.12,<3.13"))
    True
    >>> SpecifierSet("<3.12").is_disjoint(SpecifierSet(">=3.12"))
    True

The :meth:`~packaging.specifiers.SpecifierSet.to_range` method returns a
:class:`~packaging.ranges.VersionRange`, a set-algebra view of the accepted
versions that supports intersection, union, complement, and difference. See
:doc:`ranges` for details.

The relation helpers take another :class:`~packaging.specifiers.SpecifierSet`
and compare the versions the two sets accept, not the specifier objects
themselves. Both sets must have been given the same ``prereleases`` argument,
not just the same derived
:attr:`~packaging.specifiers.SpecifierSet.prereleases` value, or the
comparison raises :exc:`ValueError`. Sets containing ``===`` specifiers are
rejected; call :meth:`~packaging.specifiers.SpecifierSet.to_range` on both
sides for those.
