versioninfo

versioninfo([verbose::Bool])

Print information about the version of Julia in use. If the verbose argument is true, detailed system information is shown as well.

Examples

1. Get version information:

   julia> versioninfo()
   Julia Version 1.6.2
   Platform Info:
    OS: Linux (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
    CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz
    WORD_SIZE: 64
    LIBM: libopenlibm
    LLVM: libLLVM-11.0.1 (ORCJIT, skylake)

2. Get verbose version information:

   julia> versioninfo(true)
   Julia Version 1.6.2
   Platform Info:
    OS: Linux (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
    CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz
    WORD_SIZE: 64
    LIBM: libopenlibm
    LLVM: libLLVM-11.0.1 (ORCJIT, skylake)
   
   Additional Info:
    JULIA_HOME = /usr/local/julia-1.6.2
    JULIA_BINDIR = /usr/local/julia-1.6.2/bin
    JULIA_VERSION = 1.6.2
    JULIA_VERSION_MAJOR = 1
    JULIA_VERSION_MINOR = 6
    JULIA_VERSION_PATCH = 2
    JULIA_VERSION_COMMIT = c7b429bce4* 2021-07-14 15:36 UTC
    JULIA_VERSION_STRING = 1.6.2
    JULIA_BUILD_CONFIGURE_FLAGS = '--enable-threads' '--enable-tls=system' '--with-lapack' '--with-system-libm=auto' '--prefix=/usr/local/julia-1.6.2'
   

Common mistake example:

julia> versioninfo("verbose")
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching versioninfo(::String)

In this example, the argument provided to versioninfo is of the wrong type. The verbose argument should be a boolean (true or false), not a string. Make sure to pass a boolean value to the verbose argument when calling versioninfo.
