It provides a Version class that can parse version strings in various formats (including non-normalized forms like 'v1.2.alpha-3'), expose version components as attributes, and perform common operations like bumping development versions or normalizing to canonical form.\n\nThe package has no external dependencies and targets modern Python versions, making it straightforward to integrate into build tools, version management scripts, or any system that needs to reason about version numbers programmatically. It handles the complexity of PEP 440's grammar so you don't have to.","worth_installing":"Yes. parver is a stable, actively maintained library with zero dependencies, a permissive MIT license, and no known vulnerabilities. Install it if you need to parse or manipulate PEP 440 versions; the low friction and focused scope make it a straightforward choice for version-handling tasks."},"id":"parver","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/parver","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/parver.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/parver/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-30","license_spdx":"MIT","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"parver","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Parse and manipulate version numbers."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":7815628,"position":1691,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.0.1.post0"}
