npm cheatsheet
Here are some npm (node package manager) commands that I've found useful.
Listing installed packages
# List global packages
npm ls -g
The full global list is often way more info than you really want, so it can be helpful to limit it to root-level packages (e.g. installed via npm i -g <package>
) using the --depth-0
flag.
# List global, root-level packages
npm ls -g --depth=0
You can also list the root-level packages that have been installed via npm link
rather than npm i
with the --link=true
flag.
# List global, root-level packages installed via a `npm link`
npm ls -g --depth=0 --link=true
