latest-version

Get the latest version of an npm package

Fetches the version directly from the registry instead of depending on the massive npm module like the latest module does.

Install

$ npm install latest-version

Usage

import latestVersion from 'latest-version';

console.log(await latestVersion('ava'));
//=> '0.18.0'

console.log(await latestVersion('@sindresorhus/df'));
//=> '1.0.1'

// Also works with semver ranges and dist-tags
console.log(await latestVersion('npm', {version: 'latest-5'}));
//=> '5.5.1'
