3.10. Converting a Version instance into Different TypesΒΆ
Sometimes it is needed to convert a Version
instance into
a different type. For example, for displaying or to access all parts.
It is possible to convert a Version
instance:
Into a string with the builtin function
str()
:>>> str(Version.parse("3.4.5-pre.2+build.4")) '3.4.5-pre.2+build.4'
Into a dictionary with
to_dict()
:>>> v = Version(major=3, minor=4, patch=5) >>> v.to_dict() OrderedDict([('major', 3), ('minor', 4), ('patch', 5), ('prerelease', None), ('build', None)])
Into a tuple with
to_tuple()
:>>> v = Version(major=5, minor=4, patch=2) >>> v.to_tuple() (5, 4, 2, None, None)
