Supported Node.js Versions

Our client libraries follow theNode.js release schedule.Libraries are compatible with all currentactive andmaintenance versions ofNode.js.If you are using an end-of-life version of Node.js, we recommend that you updateas soon as possible to an actively supported LTS version.

Google's client libraries support legacy versions of Node.js runtimes on abest-efforts basis with the following warnings:

  • Legacy versions are not tested in continuous integration.
  • Some security patches and features cannot be backported.
  • Dependencies cannot be kept up-to-date.

Client libraries targeting some end-of-life versions of Node.js are available, andcan be installed through npmdist-tags.The dist-tags follow the naming conventionlegacy-(version).For example,npm install @google-cloud/containeranalysis@legacy-8 installs client librariesfor versions compatible with Node.js 8.

Versioning

This library followsSemantic Versioning.

This library is considered to bestable. The code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible waysunless absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or withan extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests againststable librariesare addressed with the highest priority.
