How to list all versions of an npm module?

To list all versions of an npm module, you can use the npm CLI tool. The specific command is:

bash
npm view [module name] versions

This command lists all versions of the specified module. For example, to view all versions of the express module, you can run:

bash
npm view express versions

This will output an array where each element represents a version of the express module.

Additionally, if you're only interested in the latest few versions, you can use:

bash
npm show [module name] version

This command will display the latest version of the module.

Using these commands helps developers understand the version history of a specific npm package, enabling them to make better choices, such as incorporating or upgrading the package in a project. This is particularly important when dealing with version compatibility issues or security patches.
