Luos ecosystem

This page provides you with the different tools' compatibility information in the Luos ecosystem, and with the compatibility information between different versions of Luos engine in a same network.

Ecosystem Compatibility

Luos provides several open source tools and API. Below is described the compatibility of Luos engine's versions with Luos HAL's and Pyluos' versions.

How to read a compatibility table?

A compatibility table shows the compatibility of one version of a tool with other tools' versions. You read from left to right.

tip

Example:

Luos engineLuos HALPYLUOS
2.0.0≥ 0.4.0≥ 2.0.0
< 2.0.2

In this extract of a table, we can read that Luos engine 2.0.0 is compatible with Luos HAL 0.4.0 and upper versions, and with versions of Pyluos between 2.0.0 (included) and 2.0.2 (not included).

Network compatibility

In a same network, nodes can have different versions of Luos engine. The main rule is that all the minor versions in a same major version are compatible.

tip

For example, a node with the version 1.3.0 and a node with the version 1.2.0 are compatible because they have the same major version (in this example, version 1).

danger

Despite this compatibility, some bugs may exist if you use different minor versions of a same major version. We advise you to use the same version of Luos engine in every nodes of a network.

If you encounter a bug or a compatibility issue, please contact us through the Luos Community on Discord.
