Old pre-built binary versions

Use-cases

The user should be able to figure out:

  • How to get the latest pre-built binary
  • What is the version number of a given pre-built binary

Attempted Solutions

I looked at GitHub / master branch, where:

  • releases say latest version is 6.5.0
  • the build folder contains files from 10 month ago, so it cannot be 6.5.0, but not even 6.4.0. Probably they are from 6.3.0
  • I tried to run --version and --help on them, but it was not possible to see the version in any way
  • I tried downloading from npm, again, I had no idea what binary version is included there.

Proposal

  • Document the above points
  • Add a --version switch so that it's clear what version is a given pre-built binary.

Update: I did a binary compare on npm's build and github master's build, they are the same file. So it seems that both versions are really old, around 6.3.0.

Yes, I think the confusion is that the Go code and the JavaScript code are developed independently.

We use semantic-release for our version of npm so the minor version has incremented twice since the latest Go code changes in #82. (one per commit prefixed with feat():)

Regarding your use-case, the latest version of the npm module will always include the latest version of the go code and the latest binary published on GitHub will always include the latest Go code.

Adding a version switch to the Go binary would be a nice addition.
