             Summary: Follow the semver standard in CLI and Lib
                 Key: CB-9290
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9290
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: CLI, CordovaLib
         Environment: All development environments
            Reporter: Robin Larsson
            Priority: Minor


The framework Ionic is using semver to see if the installed version of Cordova 
satisfies their requirement, see this 
https://github.com/driftyco/ionic-app-lib/blob/c133c055637f4e21ba3a093f9bfcc376b93468fe/lib/info.js#L295.
 Though your addition of "-dev" to the version number of Cordova-CLI during 
development releases does not follow the semver standard, and this will 
therefore cause an unnecessary version check error at their side.

In order to avoid these hiccups in the future (not only at Ionic) I propose 
that the development versions shall as well follow the semver standard. E.g. 
add an extra digit, like "5.1.21". I propose also that this shall apply as well 
to Cordova-Lib.
