# semver-compare
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
compare two semver version strings, returning -1, 0, or 1
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The return value can be fed straight into `[].sort`.

# example
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
``` js
 | 
						|
var cmp = require('semver-compare');
 | 
						|
var versions = [
 | 
						|
    '1.2.3',
 | 
						|
    '4.11.6',
 | 
						|
    '4.2.0',
 | 
						|
    '1.5.19',
 | 
						|
    '1.5.5',
 | 
						|
    '4.1.3',
 | 
						|
    '2.3.1',
 | 
						|
    '10.5.5',
 | 
						|
    '11.3.0'
 | 
						|
];
 | 
						|
console.log(versions.sort(cmp).join('\n'));
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
prints:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
1.2.3
 | 
						|
1.5.5
 | 
						|
1.5.19
 | 
						|
2.3.1
 | 
						|
4.1.3
 | 
						|
4.2.0
 | 
						|
4.11.6
 | 
						|
10.5.5
 | 
						|
11.3.0
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
whereas the default lexicographic sort (`versions.sort()`) would be:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
1.2.3
 | 
						|
1.5.19
 | 
						|
1.5.5
 | 
						|
10.5.5
 | 
						|
11.3.0
 | 
						|
2.3.1
 | 
						|
4.1.3
 | 
						|
4.11.6
 | 
						|
4.2.0
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|

```
 | 
						|
var cmp = require('semver-compare')
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## cmp(a, b)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If the semver string `a` is greater than `b`, return `1`.
 | 
						|
If the semver string `b` is greater than `a`, return `-1`.
 | 
						|
If `a` equals `b`, return 0;
 |
