Could not parse version with letters inside

[probil]

I can't install specific version of the package because volta couldn't parse version number despite it's a valid version for node.

I suppose volta validates version by semver .

$ volta install elm@elm0.19.0
error: Could not parse version "elm0.19.0"

Hi @probil, thanks for bringing this up! We actually have this tracked as #491, as the version string elm0.19.0 is, as far as npm is concerned, a tag, not an actual version name. Though we don't currently support this, we actually have made a number of architectural changes recently that should make adding support for tags relatively straightforward.

Until then, however, you can use the suggestion from the linked issue, looking at https://www.npmjs.com/package/elm under "Versions", the tag elm0.19.0 appears to point at the version 0.19.0-no-deps, so you can run volta install elm@0.19.0-no-deps and get that version installed.

Oh, I didn't know that there is such a thing as tags in npm. 🤔
I'll give it a try.
Thanks for your response @charlespierce

Thanks @charlespierce
Your suggestion helped to resolve the issue
I'm closing it in favor of #491
