How to select the version to install when using dnf in Rhel 8?

Question

I want to install nodejs 18 using the DNF installer, but the default is set to stream 10. How can I change it to select version 18 when installing?

Commands used:

sudo dnf module install nodejs
sudo dnf module install nodejs-18
sudo dnf module install nodejs@18

Any idea what I am missing?

Tried to install nodejs 18, but when I used the following command:

sudo dnf module install nodejs

Only nodejs 10 is installing.

First, you need to check available node versions on your server.

dnf module list nodejs

You can view the enabled node version with [e]. Now you need to reset your node version

dnf module reset nodejs

After that, you can enable your preferred node version with this command.

dnf module enable nodejs:18
