🦋 URI::VersionRange::Util — the manual page, but make it cute

okay so bestie, gather round, because this one is URI::V...e::Util(3pm) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's literally the little helper module that does the behind-the-scenes magic for URI::VersionRange. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

URI::VersionRange::Util — the utility squad for URI::VersionRange 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use URI::VersionRange::Util qw(native_range_to_vers);

$vers = native_range_to_vers('npm', '~1.6.5 || >=1.7.2'); # vers:npm/>=1.6.5|<1.7.0|>=1.7.2

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

URL::VersionRange::Util is the utility package for URL::VersionRange.

(it's giving support-system energy, and honestly? obsessed.)

• $string = native_range_to_vers($scheme, $native_range) — takes that native range string you handed it and hands you back the matching VERS string. conversion arc, main character moment.

$vers = native_range_to_vers('npm', '~1.6.5 || >=1.7.2'); # vers:npm/>=1.6.5|<1.7.0|>=1.7.2

these are the native range schemes it's got your back on, fr fr:

• conan
• gem
• nginx
• npm
• nuget
• raku
• semver

for any other scheme, native_range_to_vers will still try to convert the native range string into a VERS string, but ngl it may not work perfectly. it's doing its best 💀

🎀 Version compare utility 🎀

$int = version_compare($scheme, $a, $b)
$int = generic_version_compare($a, $b)
$int = semver_version_compare($a, $b)

🧚 Semver utility 🧚

$string = hash_to_semver(%hash)
$bool = is_semver($string)
$string = normalize_semver($string)
%hash = parse_semver($string)

and that's the whole page, periodt 💖✨🎀🦋

cute little sign-off: this was rendered from perl v5.40.1, dated 2026-01-31, and yes the page title really is URI::V...e::Util(3pm) — she's mysterious, she's abbreviated, she ate. 🌸🫶
