I am providing a hudson base service allowing users to request IPS package
builds of the ten or so packages I am working with. My application has two
sources for version specification. I would like to validate the user input
early.
1) The file system -- the versions are embedded in the path name and I convert
them to IPS format
2) Users may specify a version of their own choice and override the file system
I would like to validate user input before I start the actual build. I thought
I would try a regex or use the existing python code. I tried to use the
existing python code and version test examples.
I downloaded the code and I think that the version.py module performs the
version check. I used the test file to do a few tests. I was expecting
exceptions to be raised.
>>> import version;
>>> version.DotSequence("1.1.3");
[1, 1, 3]
>>> version.DotSequence("1.1.3.5");
[1, 1, 3, 5]
>>> version.DotSequence("1.1.3.5.6");
[1, 1, 3, 5, 6]
>>> version.DotSequence("1.1.3.5.6.7");
[1, 1, 3, 5, 6, 7]
>>> version.DotSequence("1");
[1]
>>> version.DotSequence("1.1");
[1, 1]
I would be happier with a regex for validating the Version. Is anyone aware of
a regex that validates the version number.
