get-latest-version
Find the latest version of an npm module matching a given semver range
Installing
npm install --save get-latest-version
Basic usage
const getLatestVersion = require('get-latest-version')
getLatestVersion('some-module')
.then((version) => console.log(version)) // 1.0.0, or whichever is 'latest'
.catch((err) => console.error(err))
getLatestVersion('some-other-module', {range: '^1.0.0'})
.then((version) => console.log(version)) // highest version matching ^1.0.0 range
.catch((err) => console.error(err))
// Returns both the highest in the given range and the actual `latest` tag
// Note that this differens in that the return value is an object
getLatestVersion('@sanity/base', {range: '^1.0.0', includeLatest: true})
.then((versions) => console.log(versions)) // {inRange: '1.150.8', latest '2.23.0'}
.catch((err) => console.error(err))
Disabling authenticated requests
By default, this module will read the authorization token for whichever registry the module belongs to, based on local npm configuration. To disable this and always send unauthenticated requests to the registry, provide auth: false
to the options:
getLatestVersion('some-module', {auth: false})
.then((version) => console.log(version))
.catch((err) => console.error(err))
Using custom registry
By default, module utilizes registry-url to resolve registry URL from NPM configuration files. However, if you need to set up the registry programmatically, you can make use of the registryUrl
option:
getLatestVersion('some-module', {registryUrl: 'https://some-custom-registry.com'})
.then((version) => console.log(version))
.catch((err) => console.error(err))
