System Requirements

Before installing Barcode Xpress for Node.js, make sure your computer system meets these minimum requirements:

x86_64 architecture
Node.js 8.0 or greater and npm
JRE 1.8 or later (to run License Manager and Server Licensing Utility)

Note that although barcode-js will install and run on Node.js 8, support for it is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. We recommend using the latest Active LTS or Maintenance LTS release of Node.js.

Check the Version

To check the version of nodejs and java on your machine, use the following code from a Linux terminal:

	Copy Code
$ node -v $ java -version

Operating Systems

Barcode Xpress for Node.js has been tested on Debian (64-bit), Ubuntu (64-bit) and CentOS (64-bit).

It should also run on other Linux distributions, as long as they fully satisfy the requirements listed in this section.
