我们的想法是比较两个版本，并知道哪个是最大的。我们删除“。”，并将向量的每个位置与其他位置进行比较。

// Return 1  if a > b
// Return -1 if a < b
// Return 0  if a == b

function compareVersions(a_components, b_components) {

   if (a_components === b_components) {
       return 0;
   }

   var partsNumberA = a_components.split(".");
   var partsNumberB = b_components.split(".");

   for (var i = 0; i < partsNumberA.length; i++) {

      var valueA = parseInt(partsNumberA[i]);
      var valueB = parseInt(partsNumberB[i]);

      // A bigger than B
      if (valueA > valueB || isNaN(valueB)) {
         return 1;
      }

      // B bigger than A
      if (valueA < valueB) {
         return -1;
      }
   }
}

进行这种比较的基本思想是使用Array。拆分以从输入字符串中获得部件数组，然后比较两个数组中的部件对;如果部分不相等，我们就知道哪个版本更小。

这里有一些重要的细节需要记住:

每对零件应该如何比较?这个问题想要从数字上进行比较，但是如果我们有不只是由数字组成的版本字符串(例如。“1.0”)? 如果一个版本字符串的部分比另一个多，会发生什么?很可能“1.0”应该被认为小于“1.0.1”，但是“1.0.0”呢?

下面是你可以直接使用的实现代码(要点和文档):

function versionCompare(v1, v2, options) {
    var lexicographical = options && options.lexicographical,
        zeroExtend = options && options.zeroExtend,
        v1parts = v1.split('.'),
        v2parts = v2.split('.');

    function isValidPart(x) {
        return (lexicographical ? /^\d+[A-Za-z]*$/ : /^\d+$/).test(x);
    }

    if (!v1parts.every(isValidPart) || !v2parts.every(isValidPart)) {
        return NaN;
    }

    if (zeroExtend) {
        while (v1parts.length < v2parts.length) v1parts.push("0");
        while (v2parts.length < v1parts.length) v2parts.push("0");
    }

    if (!lexicographical) {
        v1parts = v1parts.map(Number);
        v2parts = v2parts.map(Number);
    }

    for (var i = 0; i < v1parts.length; ++i) {
        if (v2parts.length == i) {
            return 1;
        }

        if (v1parts[i] == v2parts[i]) {
            continue;
        }
        else if (v1parts[i] > v2parts[i]) {
            return 1;
        }
        else {
            return -1;
        }
    }

    if (v1parts.length != v2parts.length) {
        return -1;
    }

    return 0;
}

这个版本自然地比较各个部分，不接受字符后缀，并认为“1.7”比“1.7.0”小。比较模式可以更改为字典式，短版本字符串可以使用可选的第三个参数自动填充零。

这里有一个运行“单元测试”的JSFiddle;这是一个稍微扩展的版本的ripper234的工作(谢谢)。

重要提示:此代码使用Array。map和Array。这意味着它将不会在9之前的IE版本中运行。如果你需要支持这些方法，你就必须为缺失的方法提供填充。

例如，如果我们想检查当前jQuery版本是否小于1.8，如果version是"1.10.1"，parseFloat($.ui.version) < 1.8)将会给出错误的结果，因为parseFloat("1.10.1")返回1.1。 字符串比较也会出错，因为"1.8" < "1.10"的结果为false。

所以我们需要一个这样的测试

if(versionCompare($.ui.version, "1.8") < 0){
    alert("please update jQuery");
}

下面的函数可以正确地处理这个问题:

/** Compare two dotted version strings (like '10.2.3').
 * @returns {Integer} 0: v1 == v2, -1: v1 < v2, 1: v1 > v2
 */
function versionCompare(v1, v2) {
    var v1parts = ("" + v1).split("."),
        v2parts = ("" + v2).split("."),
        minLength = Math.min(v1parts.length, v2parts.length),
        p1, p2, i;
    // Compare tuple pair-by-pair. 
    for(i = 0; i < minLength; i++) {
        // Convert to integer if possible, because "8" > "10".
        p1 = parseInt(v1parts[i], 10);
        p2 = parseInt(v2parts[i], 10);
        if (isNaN(p1)){ p1 = v1parts[i]; } 
        if (isNaN(p2)){ p2 = v2parts[i]; } 
        if (p1 == p2) {
            continue;
        }else if (p1 > p2) {
            return 1;
        }else if (p1 < p2) {
            return -1;
        }
        // one operand is NaN
        return NaN;
    }
    // The longer tuple is always considered 'greater'
    if (v1parts.length === v2parts.length) {
        return 0;
    }
    return (v1parts.length < v2parts.length) ? -1 : 1;
}

下面是一些例子:

// compare dotted version strings
console.assert(versionCompare("1.8",      "1.8.1")    <   0);
console.assert(versionCompare("1.8.3",    "1.8.1")    >   0);
console.assert(versionCompare("1.8",      "1.10")     <   0);
console.assert(versionCompare("1.10.1",   "1.10.1")   === 0);
// Longer is considered 'greater'
console.assert(versionCompare("1.10.1.0", "1.10.1")   >   0);
console.assert(versionCompare("1.10.1",   "1.10.1.0") <   0);
// Strings pairs are accepted
console.assert(versionCompare("1.x",      "1.x")      === 0);
// Mixed int/string pairs return NaN
console.assert(isNaN(versionCompare("1.8", "1.x")));
//works with plain numbers
console.assert(versionCompare("4", 3)   >   0);

下面是另一个简短的版本，适用于任何数量的子版本，填充零和偶数字母(1.0.0b3)

const compareVer = ((prep, repl) =>
{
  prep = t => ("" + t)
      //treat non-numerical characters as lower version
      //replacing them with a negative number based on charcode of first character
    .replace(/[^0-9\.]+/g, c => "." + (c.replace(/[\W_]+/, "").toLowerCase().charCodeAt(0) - 65536) + ".")
      //remove trailing "." and "0" if followed by non-numerical characters (1.0.0b);
    .replace(/(?:\.0+)*(\.-[0-9]+)(\.[0-9]+)?\.*$/g, "$1$2")
    .split('.');

  return (a, b, c, i, r) =>
  {
    a = prep(a);
    b = prep(b);
    for (i = 0, r = 0, c = Math.max(a.length, b.length); !r && i++ < c;)
    {
      r = -1 * ((a[i] = ~~a[i]) < (b[i] = ~~b[i])) + (a[i] > b[i]);
    }
    return r;
  }
})();

函数返回:

如果a = b则为0

1如果a > b

-1如果a < b

我写了一个排序版本的节点模块，你可以在这里找到它:version-sort

特点:

序列“1.0.1.5.53.54654.114.1.154.45”不受限制 不限制序列长度:'1.1546515465451654654654654138754431574364321353734'工作 可以根据版本对对象进行排序(参见README) 阶段(如alpha, beta, rc1, rc2)

如果您需要其他功能，请不要犹豫，打开一个问题。

这里有一个面向对象的有趣方法:

    function versionString(str) {
    var parts = str.split('.');
    this.product = parts.length > 0 ? parts[0] * 1 : 0;
    this.major = parts.length > 1 ? parts[1] * 1 : 0;
    this.minor = parts.length > 2 ? parts[2] * 1 : 0;
    this.build = parts.length > 3 ? parts[3] * 1 : 0;

    this.compareTo = function(vStr){
        vStr = this._isVersionString(vStr) ? vStr : new versionString(vStr);
        return this.compare(this, vStr);
    };

    this.toString = function(){
        return this.product + "." + this.major + "." + this.minor + "." + this.build;
    }

    this.compare = function (str1, str2) {
        var vs1 = this._isVersionString(str1) ? str1 : new versionString(str1);
        var vs2 = this._isVersionString(str2) ? str2 : new versionString(str2);

        if (this._compareNumbers(vs1.product, vs2.product) == 0) {
            if (this._compareNumbers(vs1.major, vs2.major) == 0) {
                if (this._compareNumbers(vs1.minor, vs2.minor) == 0) {
                    return this._compareNumbers(vs1.build, vs2.build);
                } else {
                    return this._compareNumbers(vs1.minor, vs2.minor);
                }
            } else {
                return this._compareNumbers(vs1.major, vs2.major);
            }
        } else {
            return this._compareNumbers(vs1.product, vs2.product);
        }
    };

    this._isVersionString = function (str) {
        return str !== undefined && str.build !== undefined;
    };

    this._compareNumbers = function (n1, n2) {
        if (n1 > n2) {
            return 1;
        } else if (n1 < n2) {
            return -1;
        } else {
            return 0;
        }
    };
}

还有一些测试:

var v1 = new versionString("1.0");
var v2 = new versionString("1.0.1");
var v3 = new versionString("2.0");
var v4 = new versionString("2.0.0.1");
var v5 = new versionString("2.0.1");


alert(v1.compareTo("1.4.2"));
alert(v3.compareTo(v1));
alert(v5.compareTo(v4));
alert(v4.compareTo(v5));
alert(v5.compareTo(v5));
