canUpdate property

Implementation

bool get canUpdate {
  final local = localVersion.split('.').map(int.parse).toList();
  final store = storeVersion.split('.').map(int.parse).toList();

  // Each consecutive field in the version notation is less significant than the previous one,
  // therefore only one comparison needs to yield `true` for it to be determined that the store
  // version is greater than the local version.
  for (var i = 0; i < store.length; i++) {
    // The store version field is newer than the local version.
    if (store[i] > local[i]) {
      return true;
    }

    // The local version field is newer than the store version.
    if (local[i] > store[i]) {
      return false;
    }
  }

  // The local and store versions are the same.
