Module: utils.version

Utilities for version comparison

It is a bit ridiculous that we need these.

1 Function

IPython.utils.version.check_version(v, check)

check version string v >= check

If dev/prerelease tags result in TypeError for string-number comparison, it is assumed that the dependency is satisfied. Users on dev branches are responsible for keeping their own packages up to date.
