# Usage - versions #
`loaih` can help to find out information about specific LibreOffice versions;
this happens because the script parses the official download page and/or
infers from some other sources.
`loaih getversion` helps to find those information:
loaih getversion 7.6.2
For example would reply with the following information:
```
query: 7.6.2
version: 7.6.2.1
x86: -
x86_64: https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/7.6.2.1/deb/x86_64/
```
The *query* line would report each argument for the `getversion` verb; the
*version* is the full version of the LibreOffice version matching the query;
the *x86* and *x86_64* would provide URLs to download all the needed archives
to build the AppImage (but do not worry, you don't necessarily need to do it
by hand).
## Textual queries ##
`loaih` supports textual queries, when you want to find the latest version of
some categories of LibreOffice. The following textual queries are supported:
* `fresh` and `still`: these are the stable release versions for LibreOffice;
* `prerelease`: refers to the last prerelease version published on the
website;
* `current`, `daily`, `yesterday`: returns the version and the URLS to
download respectively the current last daily build, the daily build for
today, and the daily build for yesterday;
* *yyyymmdd*: outputs the information for the daily build corresponding to the
indicated date (in the format 4-digits year, 2-digits month, 2-digits day
number).
## Fallback to current for daily builds ##
As the `daily` version might provide an empty answer (the upstream daily build
for today has not yet been released), there's an optional `-d` flag to
ascertain a `daily` query would reply with a valid answer, pointing out to the
last (current) daily release available (same as `current`):
loaih getversion daily -d
## Multiple query ##
It is possible to ask for different queries in the same call, by separating
each query with a *comma* ',':
loaih getversion 7.4,fresh,still
## JSON output ##
The information normally given on the standard output can be also provided as
a JSON output:
loaih getversion fresh -j
