哪些版本的 npm 附带哪些版本的 node？

Question

Which versions of npm came with which versions of node? I can't find such a list.

Answer 1

At https://nodejs.org/dist/ there is index.json which indicates each version of nodejs and which version of npm is bundled with it.

---

index.json

An excerpt from one of the objects in the array of index.json reads:

[
  {
    "version": "v10.6.0",       //<--- nodejs version
    "date": "2018-07-04",
    "files": [
      ...
    ],
    "npm": "6.1.0",             //<--- npm version
    "v8": "6.7.288.46",
    "uv": "",
    "zlib": "1.2.11",
    "openssl": "1.1.0h",
    "modules": "64",
    "lts": false
  },
  ...
]

Whereby each object in the array has a version (ie the nodejs version) and npm (ie the npm version) key/value pair.

Programmatically obtaining the versions

Consider utilizing the following node.js script to request the data from the https://nodejs.org/dist/index.json endpoint.

get-versions.js

const { get } = require('https');

const ENDPOINT = 'https://nodejs.org/dist/index.json';


function requestVersionInfo(url) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    get(url, response => {
      let data = '';
      response.on('data', chunk => data += chunk);
      response.on('end', () => resolve(data));
    }).on('error', error => reject(new Error(error)));
  });
}


function extractVersionInfo(json) {
  return JSON.parse(json).map(({ version, npm = null }) => {
    return {
      nodejs: version.replace(/^v/, ''),
      npm
    };
  });
}


(async function logVersionInfo() {
  try {
    const json = await requestVersionInfo(ENDPOINT);
    const versionInfo = extractVersionInfo(json);
    console.log(JSON.stringify(versionInfo, null, 2));

  } catch ({ message }) {
    console.error(message);
  }
})();

Running the following command:

node ./path/to/get-versions.js

will print something like the following to your console:

 [ { "nodejs": "14.2.0", "npm": "6.14.4" }, { "nodejs": "14.1.0", "npm": "6.14.4" }, { "nodejs": "14.0.0", "npm": "6.14.4" }, { "nodejs": "13.14.0", "npm": "6.14.4" }, ... ]

As you can see it lists each version of nodejs and it's respective version of npm.
