node-pkgver

Get the current version of your NodeJs project

This module will return the version string for the current (running) NodeJs application. The version string is extracted out of version property of appʼs package.json

Whatʼs the catch of one more implementation?

• lightweight, clean and simple
• zero dependencies
• no external calls to npm or whatever
• modern ES module format
• NodeJs v10.12.0 or higher
• ease of use

Install

npm install node-pkgver

Usage

import version from 'node-pkgver'

Thatʼs all!

From now on constant version keeps the version string of your project, i.e. current (running) NodeJs application, extracted out of version property of appʼs package.json

Or null if version property is empty or missing from appʼs package.json, or appʼs package.json is missing per se
