I have tried out various circleci images from docker, and regardless of which one I choose the node version is always the same, v4.2.6.
Can anyone provide any guidance on how to change the version of node.js?
Thank you.

I have the same issue.
My circle.yml is as follows
version: 2
jobs:
build:
docker:
# specify the version you desire here
- image: circleci/node:9.4.0
steps:
- checkout
# Download and cache dependencies
- restore_cache:
keys:
- v1-dependencies-{{ checksum "package.json" }}
# fallback to using the latest cache if no exact match is found
- v1-dependencies-
- run:
name: Install dependencies
command: npm install
- save_cache:
key: v1-dependencies-{{ checksum "package.json" }}
paths:
- node_modules
# run tests!
- run:
name: Linter
command: npm run lint
- run:
name: Unit tests
command: npm run test:unit
- run:
name: Integration tests
command: npm run test:server
But the tests fail and in the logs I see
ERR! node v4.2.6
npm ERR! npm v2.14.12
I would guess this is a standard Linux debugging issue, and nothing to do with CircleCI per se. I wonder if there are several npm
binaries in this container, and one has to use a fully-qualified path to get the right one?
If that does not work, you can always roll your own, which will, obviously, only contain the version you install. It is helpful to set this up as a separate build process, and then push to a public/private registry on successful image build.
So just for the record, I worked out my issue. The file is meant to be called .circleci/config.yml
not .circleci/circle.yml
The node version is being set correctly now.
