Hi, I'm currently using NodeRED with projects enabled. I would like to access the project version from package.json and display it in an http interface, but I couldn't find a direct way to retrieve this information. I think it would be helpful if NodeRED could provide this information as an environment variable.
Welcome to the forums @mrcamilletti
This may not be a permanent or a clean solution in the interim, but you can just read the package file, of said project.
I did try looking at the API - but I don't think an endpoint exists to give you the info.
