Synopsis

talkvalue version

​
Options

This command takes no flags beyond the global flags. Output respects --format / --json.

Examples

​
1. Quick version check

talkvalue version
Prints the installed version, the Node version, and the platform string.

​
2. Capture the version for a bug report

talkvalue version --json \
  | jq '{cli: .data.version, node: .data.nodeVersion, platform: .data.platform}'
Drop this into a support request, or paste it alongside an issue when reporting a CLI bug to support@trytalkvalue.com.

​
3. Branch on the CLI version

cli_ver=$(talkvalue version --json | jq -r '.data.version')
case "$cli_ver" in
  1.6.*|1.7.*) echo "CLI supports the analysis subcommands" ;;
  *)           echo "CLI is older. Consider running 'talkvalue update'" ;;
esac
Useful in shared scripts that have to run on developer laptops with mixed CLI versions.

​
Response

{
  "data": {
    "version": "1.6.2",
    "nodeVersion": "v22.12.0",
    "platform": "darwin"
  }
}
platform follows Node’s process.platform: darwin, linux, win32. nodeVersion is the Node runtime that launched the CLI, not the version embedded in the published binary.
