ehmicky/node-version-alias: Resolve Node.js version aliases like `latest`, `lts` or `erbium`

Resolve Node.js version aliases like latest, lts or erbium.

Those aliases are used by Node.js version managers like nvm, nvs, n, nave, nodeenv or nodist.

This resolves them to a "major.minor.patch" version string. The following aliases are supported:

Normal version ranges (like 12.1.0, 12 or >=10) are valid inputs too.

import nodeVersionAlias from 'node-version-alias'

// Note: the following examples might be out-of-sync with the actual versions
console.log(await nodeVersionAlias('latest')) // 19.3.0
console.log(await nodeVersionAlias('lts')) // 18.12.1
console.log(await nodeVersionAlias('lts/erbium')) // 12.22.12
console.log(await nodeVersionAlias('erbium')) // 12.22.12
console.log(await nodeVersionAlias('lts/-2')) // 14.21.2

// Normal version ranges
console.log(await nodeVersionAlias('10.0.0')) // 10.0.0
console.log(await nodeVersionAlias('10')) // 10.24.1
console.log(await nodeVersionAlias('^10')) // 10.24.1
console.log(await nodeVersionAlias('>=10')) // 19.3.0

// Allowed options
await nodeVersionAlias('latest', {
  // 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,
})
npm install node-version-alias

This 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.
