API

getVersionSelectorType(selector)

Returns the type of the version selector and the normalized form of that selector. Returns null in case it is an unknown selector. Interprets versions and ranges loosely.

getVersionSelectorType.strict(selector)

Same as getVersionSelectorType() but interprets versions and ranges not loosely.
