Node.js Version API
To retrieve the Node.js version programmatically, you can use the process
object in Node.js. Here are the steps to get the Node.js version:
Import the
process
module at the beginning of your code:javascript const process = require('process');
Access the
version
property of theprocess
object to get the Node.js version:javascript const nodeVersion = process.version;
The nodeVersion
variable will now contain the Node.js version.
- You can then use the
console.log
function to print the Node.js version to the console:javascript console.log('Node.js version:', nodeVersion);
This will display the Node.js version in the console when you run your code.
Note: The process.version
property returns the Node.js version in the format vX.X.X
. If you want to extract only the numeric version without the 'v' prefix, you can use the slice
method:
const nodeVersion = process.version.slice(1);
This will remove the 'v' from the version string.
