Which versions of node.js are available on Azure Web Sites?

Question

I already know how to change the version of Node.js running on an Azure website, but how do I see what the available Node.js version are that can be used in Azure?

This is similar to this question, but the asker there explicitly wants to know the version that is currently running, not what versions are available.

Answer 1

1. Open Advanced Tools (Kudu):

   

2. In Kudu, click on Runtime versions:

   

At the time of writing (August 2017), you'll see something like this:

{   "nodejs": [     {       "version": "0.10.18",       "npm": "1.4.28"     },     {       "version": "0.10.21",       "npm": "1.3.11"     },     {       "version": "0.10.24",       "npm": "1.4.28"     },     {       "version": "0.10.26",       "npm": "1.4.28"     },     {       "version": "0.10.28",       "npm": "1.4.9"     },     {       "version": "0.10.29",       "npm": "1.4.10"     },     {       "version": "0.10.31",       "npm": "1.4.28"     },     {       "version": "0.10.32",       "npm": "1.4.28"     },     {       "version": "0.10.40",       "npm": "1.4.28"     },     {       "version": "0.10.5",       "npm": "1.2.18"     },     {       "version": "0.12.0",       "npm": "2.11.2"     },     {       "version": "0.12.2",       "npm": "2.11.2"     },     {       "version": "0.12.3",       "npm": "2.11.2"     },     {       "version": "0.12.6",       "npm": "2.11.2"     },     {       "version": "0.6.20",       "npm": "1.1.37"     },     {       "version": "0.8.19",       "npm": "1.2.30"     },     {       "version": "0.8.2",       "npm": "1.1.36"     },     {       "version": "0.8.26",       "npm": "1.2.30"     },     {       "version": "0.8.27",       "npm": "1.2.30"     },     {       "version": "0.8.28",       "npm": "1.2.30"     },     {       "version": "4.0.0",       "npm": "2.14.2"     },     {       "version": "4.1.0",       "npm": "2.14.4"     },     {       "version": "4.1.2",       "npm": "2.14.4"     },     {       "version": "4.2.1",       "npm": "3.3.9"     },     {       "version": "4.2.2",       "npm": "3.3.12"     },     {       "version": "4.2.3",       "npm": "3.5.1"     },     {       "version": "4.2.4",       "npm": "2.14.12"     },     {       "version": "4.3.0",       "npm": "2.14.12"     },     {       "version": "4.3.2",       "npm": "2.14.12"     },     {       "version": "4.4.0",       "npm": "2.15.8"     },     {       "version": "4.4.1",       "npm": "2.15.8"     },     {       "version": "4.4.6",       "npm": "2.15.8"     },     {       "version": "4.4.7",       "npm": "2.15.8"     },     {       "version": "4.5.0",       "npm": "2.15.9"     },     {       "version": "4.6.0",       "npm": "2.15.9"     },     {       "version": "4.6.1",       "npm": "2.15.9"     },     {       "version": "4.8.4",       "npm": "2.15.11"     },     {       "version": "5.0.0",       "npm": "3.3.9"     },     {       "version": "5.1.1",       "npm": "3.3.12"     },     {       "version": "5.3.0",       "npm": "3.3.12"     },     {       "version": "5.4.0",       "npm": "3.3.12"     },     {       "version": "5.5.0",       "npm": "3.3.12"     },     {       "version": "5.6.0",       "npm": "3.6.0"     },     {       "version": "5.7.0",       "npm": "3.6.0"     },     {       "version": "5.7.1",       "npm": "3.6.0"     },     {       "version": "5.8.0",       "npm": "3.7.3"     },     {       "version": "5.9.1",       "npm": "3.7.3"     },     {       "version": "6.0.0",       "npm": "3.8.6"     },     {       "version": "6.1.0",       "npm": "3.8.6"     },     {       "version": "6.10.0",       "npm": "3.10.10"     },     {       "version": "6.11.1",       "npm": "3.10.10"     },     {       "version": "6.2.2",       "npm": "3.9.5"     },     {       "version": "6.3.0",       "npm": "3.10.3"     },     {       "version": "6.5.0",       "npm": "3.10.3"     },     {       "version": "6.6.0",       "npm": "3.10.3"     },     {       "version": "6.7.0",       "npm": "3.10.3"     },     {       "version": "6.9.0",       "npm": "3.10.8"     },     {       "version": "6.9.1",       "npm": "3.10.8"     },     {       "version": "6.9.2",       "npm": "3.10.9"     },     {       "version": "6.9.4",       "npm": "3.10.10"     },     {       "version": "6.9.5",       "npm": "3.10.10"     },     {       "version": "7.0.0",       "npm": "3.10.8"     },     {       "version": "7.1.0",       "npm": "3.10.9"     },     {       "version": "7.10.0",       "npm": "4.2.0"     },     {       "version": "7.10.1",       "npm": "4.2.0"     },     {       "version": "7.2.0",       "npm": "3.10.9"     },     {       "version": "7.3.0",       "npm": "3.10.10"     },     {       "version": "7.4.0",       "npm": "4.0.5"     },     {       "version": "7.5.0",       "npm": "4.1.2"     },     {       "version": "7.6.0",       "npm": "4.1.2"     },     {       "version": "7.7.4",       "npm": "4.1.2"     },     {       "version": "8.0.0",       "npm": "5.0.0"     },     {       "version": "8.1.4",       "npm": "5.0.3"     }   ] }

Answer 2

Using the Azure CLI is easiest:

az webapp list-runtimes 

returns:

[   "aspnet|v4.7",   "aspnet|v3.5",   "node|0.6",   "node|0.8",   "node|0.10",   "node|0.12",   "node|4.8",   "node|6.12",   "node|7.10",   "node|8.4",   "node|8.5",   "node|8.9",   "node|8.10",   "node|8.11",   "node|10.0",   "node|10.6",   "php|5.6",   "php|7.0",   "php|7.1",   "php|7.2",   "python|2.7",   "python|3.4",   "java|1.7|Tomcat|7.0",   "java|1.7|Tomcat|8.0",   "java|1.7|Tomcat|8.5",   "java|1.7|Tomcat|9.0",   "java|1.7|Jetty|9.1",   "java|1.7|Jetty|9.3",   "java|1.8|Tomcat|7.0",   "java|1.8|Tomcat|8.0",   "java|1.8|Tomcat|8.5",   "java|1.8|Tomcat|9.0",   "java|1.8|Jetty|9.1",   "java|1.8|Jetty|9.3" ]
