# ❔ VERNODE
[Vernode](https://www.npmjs.com/package/vernode) checks for latest [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/en/about) versions.
You can use this as a [module](https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html#introduction) in your NodeJS program or as a [CLI command](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface) in your system.
## Requirements
[NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/en/download) version **18.0.0** or higher because of [Fetch API](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v18.0.0/).
## [Module](https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html#introduction) Installation
By using [NPM](https://docs.npmjs.com/packages-and-modules/getting-packages-from-the-registry)
```bash
npm i vernode
```
By using [PNPM](https://pnpm.io/pnpm-cli)
```bash
pnpm add vernode
```
By using [BUN](https://bun.sh/docs/cli/install)
```bash
bun i vernode
```
## [Module](https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html#introduction) Usage
```js
import vernode, { lts, current, nightly } from 'vernode';
const versions = await vernode();
console.log(versions);
// { lts: '20.11.1', current: '21.6.2', nightly: '22.0.0' }
console.log(versions.lts); // 20.11.1
console.log(versions.current); // 21.6.2
console.log(versions.nightly); // 22.0.0
console.log(await lts()); // 20.11.1
console.log(await current()); // 21.6.2
console.log(await nightly()); // 22.0.0
```
## [CLI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface) installation
By using [NPM](https://docs.npmjs.com/packages-and-modules/getting-packages-from-the-registry)
```bash
npm i -g vernode
```
By using [PNPM](https://pnpm.io/pnpm-cli)
```bash
pnpm add -g vernode
```
By using [BUN](https://bun.sh/docs/cli/install)
```bash
bun i -g vernode
```
## [CLI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface) usage
```bash
vernode
# LTS: 20.14.0
# Current: 22.2.0
# Nightly: 23.0.0
vernode json
# { lts: '20.14.0', current: '22.2.0', nightly: '23.0.0' }
vernode lts
# 20.14.0
vernode current
# 22.2.0
vernode nightly
# 23.0.0
vernode help
# guess what it does
```
## [CLI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface) usage without installation
You can use the [CLI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface) command without installing it by using [PNPM DLX](https://pnpm.io/cli/dlx).
```bash
pnpm dlx vernode
```
[Bun.sh](https://bun.sh/) also supports running code without installation.
Following command will print versions in [JSON](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON) format.
```bash
bunx vernode json
```
# Changelog
### Version 3.0.0 - Breaking changes
- The code has been restructured and the way the module is used has been changed.
- Optimized data fetching. Data fetching is done in parallel to reduce the execution time. The fetched data is split into chunks, allowing us to download much less data and receive results much faster.
- In the CLI, added the option to display data as JSON.
- All previous versions have been marked as deprecated.
