# latest-version [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/latest-version.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/latest-version)
> Get the latest version of an npm package
Fetches the version directly from the registry instead of depending on the massive [npm](https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/8b5e7b6ae5b4cd2d7d62eaf93b1428638b387072/package.json#L37-L85) module like the [latest](https://github.com/bahamas10/node-latest) module does.
## Install
```
$ npm install latest-version
```
## Usage
```js
const latestVersion = require('latest-version');
(async () => {
console.log(await latestVersion('ava'));
//=> '0.18.0'
console.log(await latestVersion('@sindresorhus/df'));
//=> '1.0.1'
// Also works with semver ranges and dist-tags
console.log(await latestVersion('npm', {version: 'latest-5'}));
//=> '5.5.1'
})();
```
