Normalize and validate Node.js versions.
Takes any version range as inputs such as 8, 8.5.0 or >=8 and returns a
"major.minor.patch" string. Throws if the Node.js version does not exist.
Example
import normalizeNodeVersion from 'normalize-node-version'
await normalizeNodeVersion('8') // '8.17.0'
await normalizeNodeVersion('8.5.0') // '8.5.0'
await normalizeNodeVersion('v8.5.0') // '8.5.0'
await normalizeNodeVersion('<7') // '6.17.1'
await normalizeNodeVersion('8.5.2') // Error: Invalid Node version
await normalizeNodeVersion('not_a_version') // Error: Invalid Node version
// All available options
await normalizeNodeVersion('8', {
// Use a mirror for Node.js binaries
mirror: 'https://npmmirror.com/mirrors/node',
// Do not cache the list of available Node.js versions
fetch: true,
// Cancels when the signal is aborted
signal: new AbortController().signal,
})Install
npm install normalize-node-versionThis package works in Node.js >=18.18.0.
This is an ES module. It must be loaded using
an import or import() statement,
not require(). If TypeScript is used, it must be configured to
output ES modules,
not CommonJS.

versionRange: string\
options: object?\
