Can I identify the running version of express.js from within code?
For example, I can use process.version
to get the Node version, and process.versions
for the various dependancies.
Is there a way I can do this for Express?
Thanks
In windows you can simply go to the Task Manager and check for node in the application list. If it is there then it is running in the machine. There is no default page or URL that node server provides from which you can know that node is running on that server by using the Public IP address or domain name.
js, or simply Express, is a back end web application framework for building RESTful APIs with Node. js, released as free and open-source software under the MIT License. It is designed for building web applications and APIs.
The easiest way to check what version of Node. js you're using is to run node --version from your terminal. This will print your version of Node.
In order to find the current version of your Express JS, open your terminal and type:
npm list express
Another way is to open up your codebase and check the package.json file where you will be able to see all the packages installed along with its version number.
