  "git.branch": "master",
  "npm.version": "1.0.0"
}

CLI Usage

what-version has a single command line option which can be used to specify the desired fields. You may specify -f once:

npx -q @vendoor/what-version -f npm.version git.branch

Or you can specify -f multiple times:

npx -q @vendoor/what-version -f npm.version -f git.branch

Library Usage

Alternatively, you can use what-version as a library. It exposes a single function, query:

• async query(fields, cwd)
  • fields - The name of the queried fields (required).
  • cwd - The working directory of the project (required).

const whatVersion = require('@vendoor/what-version');

(async main() {
    const data = await whatVersion.query(['npm.version, git.hash'], '.');
})();

Available Fields

The following fields are available:

• git.branch - The current git branch.
• git.hash - The hash of the latest git commit.
• npm.version - The value of the version field in the package.json.
