Description:
The same way it's possible to define relative LTS versions in node-version (like lts/-1), I want to be able to use relative versions from latest one (like current/-3).
Justification:
I want to support only versions with at least 1 year of maintenance in the foresee. I've seen maintenance dates match for current version, so current/-3 would match up to 3 versions older for current ones, so for example when v24 gets released now in April, -3 would be Node.js v21, not testing on v20 that will be out of maintenance on April 2026.
Additionally, I would want some basic ranges combinations similar to browserlist, so something like >=current/-3 & lts/* when Node.js v24 gets published would resolve to Node.js v22 instead of v21, that's the first LTS newer than current/-3, but maybe that would be in another proposal.
Are you willing to submit a PR?
Yes, I could do that if there's interest.
