semver-compare
compare two semver version strings, returning -1, 0, or 1
The return value can be fed straight into [].sort.
example
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
methods
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;
