The process.versions property is an inbuilt application programming interface of the process module which is used to get the versions of node.js modules and it's dependencies. Syntax:
process.versions
Return Value: This property returns an object containing the versions of the node.js module and it's dependencies. Below examples illustrate the use of process.versions property in Node.js: Example 1:
// Node.js program to demonstrate the
// process.versions property
// Include process module
const process = require('process');
// Printing process.versions property value
console.log(process.versions);
Output:
{ http_parser: '2.8.0',
node: '10.16.0',
v8: '6.8.275.32-node.52',
uv: '1.28.0',
zlib: '1.2.11',
brotli: '1.0.7',
ares: '1.15.0',
modules: '64',
nghttp2: '1.34.0',
napi: '4',
openssl: '1.1.1b',
icu: '64.2',
unicode: '12.1',
cldr: '35.1',
tz: '2019a' }
Example 2:
// Node.js program to demonstrate the
// process.versions property
// Include process module
const process = require('process');
// Printing process.versions property value
// and variable count
var no_versions = 0;
// Calling process.versions property
var versions = process.versions;
// Iterating through all returned data
for (var key in versions) {
// Printing key and its versions
console.log(key + ":\t\t\t" + versions[key]);
no_versions++;
}
// Printing count value
console.log("Total no of values available = " + no_versions);
Output:
http_parser: 2.8.0 node: 10.16.0 v8: 6.8.275.32-node.52 uv: 1.28.0 zlib: 1.2.11 brotli: 1.0.7 ares: 1.15.0 modules: 64 nghttp2: 1.34.0 napi: 4 openssl: 1.1.1b icu: 64.2 unicode: 12.1 cldr: 35.1 tz: 2019a Total no of values available = 15
Example 3:
// Node.js program to demonstrate the
// process.versions property
// Include process module
const process = require('process');
// Calling process.versions property
var versions = process.versions;
// Printing one at a time
console.log("node version: " + versions.node);
console.log("openssl version: " + versions.openssl);
console.log("module versions: " + versions.modules);
Output:
node version: 10.16.0 openssl version: 1.1.1b module versions: 64
