Great! Recently there was a discussion on semantics of versioning, and semver has seen some quick adoption, would be great if it could be adopted here and help form the actual standard.
A few remarks;
- your file lists version 1.0, and is hence not semver compliant, 1.0.0 would be.
- there is no way to get the version of your code programmatically (you can’t use it on itself to compare semver.lua code versions)
- it would be nice to add some utility functions to compare lua modules (based on a module table containing a _VERSION value)
Thx for the code, I will definitely be using this!
