SemanticVersion provides a parser function via {{#semver}} that allows comparing 2 different semantic versions.

Installation

• Download and move the extracted SemanticVersion folder to your extensions/ directory.
  Developers and code contributors should install the extension from Git instead, using:cd extensions/
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/SemanticVersion
• Only when installing from Git, run Composer to install PHP dependencies, by issuing composer install --no-dev in the extension directory. (See T173141 for potential complications.)Category:Extensions requiring Composer with git
• Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:

  wfLoadExtension( 'SemanticVersion' );
  

• Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.

Usage

The magic word syntax is as follows:
