详情

npm is the package manager for the Node JavaScript platform. It puts modules in place so that node can find them, and manages dependency conflicts intelligently.

It is extremely configurable to support a wide variety of use cases. Most commonly, it is used to publish, discover, install, and develop node programs.

Run npm help to get a list of available commands.

IMPORTANT

npm is configured to use npm, Inc.'s public registry at INTRODUCTION

You probably got npm because you want to install stuff.

Use npm install blerg to install the latest version of "blerg". Check out DEPENDENCIES

If a package references to another package with a git URL, npm depends on a preinstalled git.

If one of the packages npm tries to install is a native node module and requires compiling of C++ Code, npm will use DIRECTORIES

See DEVELOPER USAGE

If you're using npm to develop and publish your code, check out the following help topics:

• json: Make a package.json file. See Configuration

  npm is extremely configurable. It reads its configuration options from 5 places.

  • Command line switches: Set a config with --key val. All keys take a value, even if they are booleans (the config parser doesn't know what the options are at the time of parsing). If no value is provided, then the option is set to boolean true.
  • Environment Variables: Set any config by prefixing the name in an environment variable with npm_config_. For example, export npm_config_key=val.
  • User Configs: The file at $HOME/.npmrc is an ini-formatted list of configs. If present, it is parsed. If the userconfig option is set in the cli or env, then that will be used instead.
  • Global Configs: The file found at ../etc/npmrc (from the node executable, by default this resolves to /usr/local/etc/npmrc) will be parsed if it is found. If the globalconfig option is set in the cli, env, or user config, then that file is parsed instead.
  • Defaults: npm's default configuration options are defined in lib/utils/config-defs.js. These must not be changed.
