Node.js version on the command line? (not the REPL)

Question

I want to get the version of Node.js on the command line. I\'m expecting to run a command like:

node -version

but that doesn\'t work. Does

Answer 1

You can simply do

node --version

or short form would also do

node -v

If above commands does not work, you have done something wrong in installation, reinstall the node.js and try.
