How can I install npm package smaller than any specific version

Question

Let me explain....

Like.. I want to install jQuery package using npm, and the version of jquery is smaller than 3.0.0.

So how can I do it?

Answer 1

You can install an npm package below a specific version using this:

npm install jquery@">=0.1.0 <3.0.0" // Using a range

npm install jquery@"<3.0.0" // Below a specific version

You can refer to this link for more information: https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/install

Answer 2

I think you must update the dependency version in "package.json" (which you required) and then run the "npm install" command.It will update the package with which we added in the "package.json" file. Hope this will fix the issue.
