Package Exports

check-node-version

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (check-node-version) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Command Line Usage

SYNOPSIS
      check-node-version [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
      check-node-version will check if the current node, npm, npx and yarn
      versions match the given semver version ranges.

      If the given version is not satisfied, information about
      installing the needed version is printed and the program exits
      with an error code.

OPTIONS

      --node VERSION
            Check that the current node version matches the given semver
            version range.

      --npm VERSION
            Check that the current npm version matches the given semver
            version range.

      --npx VERSION
            Check that the current npx version matches the given semver
            version range.

      --yarn VERSION
            Check that the current yarn version matches the given semver
            version range.

      --package
            Use the "engines" key in the current package.json for the
            semver version ranges.

      -p, --print
            Print installed versions.

      -h, --help
            Print this message.

Examples

Check for node 6, failing

Check for node 6, but have 8.2.1 installed.

$ check-node-version --node 6
node: 8.2.1
Error: Wanted node version 6 (>=6.0.0 <7.0.0)
To install node, run `nvm install 6` or see https://nodejs.org/
$ echo $?
1

Check for node 6, passing

If all versions match, there is no output:

$ check-node-version --node 6
$ echo $?
0

Check for multiple versions simultaneously

You can check versions of any combinations of node, npm, npx, and yarn at one time.

$ check-node-version --node 4 --npm 2.14 --npx 6 --yarn 0.17.1

Print installed versions

Use the --print option to print currently installed versions. If given a tool to check, only that will be printed. Otherwise, all known tools will be printed. Notes a missing tool.

$ check-node-version --print --node 11.12
node: 11.12.0
$ echo $?
0

$ check-node-version --print
node: 11.12.0
npm: 6.9.0
npx: 10.2.0
yarn: not installed
$ $LASTEXITCODE
0

NOTE: Both preceding examples show that this works equally cross-platform, the first one being a *nix shell, the second one running on Windows.

Use with a `.nvmrc` file

$ check-node-version --node $(cat .nvmrc) --npm 2.14

Use with `npm test`

{
  "name": "my-package",
  "devDependencies": {
    "check-node-version": "^1.0.0"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "test": "check-node-version --node '>= 4.2.3' && node my-tests.js"
  }
}

API Usage

This module can also be used programmatically. Pass it an object with the required versions of node, npm, npx, and/or yarn followed by a results handler.

const check = require("check-node-version");

check(
    { node: ">= 18.3", },
    (error, results) => {
        if (error) {
            console.error(error);
            return;
        }

        if (results.isSatisfied) {
            console.log("All is well.");
            return;
        }

        console.error("Some package version(s) failed!");

        for (const packageName of Object.keys(results.versions)) {
            if (!results.versions[packageName].isSatisfied) {
                console.error(`Missing ${packageName}.`);
            }
        }
    }
);
