Inputs
version - Version
string. Default value: 10.x.
Required. Specifies the Node.js version using SemVer's version range syntax. Examples: 10.x, 10.15.1, >=10.15.0.
checkLatest - Check for Latest Version
boolean. Default value: false.
Checks online for the latest available version that satisfies the version spec. This should be false unless you need to always have the latest version. Setting the value to true will cause the task to incur download costs that may be unnecessary, especially with the hosted build pool.
force32bit - Use 32 bit version on x64 agents
boolean. Default value: false.
Installs the x86 version of Node.js on a 64-bit Windows agent. Only works on Windows agents.
retryCountOnDownloadFails - Set retry count when nodes downloads failed
string. Default value: 5.
Use this option when the task failed to download node binaries from the mirror. The task will retry to download the binaries for the specified times.
delayBetweenRetries - Set delay between retries
string. Default value: 1000.
Use this option to set the delay between retries in milliseconds. The default value is 1000 milliseconds.
