Run: npm install -g globally with npm will update your npm v2 to npm v3, including on the Node.js v4 LTS release (“Argon”) ships with the npm v2 LTS release. If you need verified consistency across package.json, npm-shrinkwrap.json and node_modules for your project, you should consider using npm-shrinkwrap. When you run npm install and there is a npm-shrinkwrap.json present, it will override the listed dependencies and any semver ranges in package.json. This allows you to pin the dependencies of your project to the specific version you’re currently using within your node_modules directory. Using shrinkwrap in your project generates an npm-shrinkwrap.json file. Update: Thanks to for noticing a personal config setting that made npm prune provide a slightly different result than the default npm would provide! 5. The npm prune command then strips out those packages, and removes any you haven't manually added to package.json or that were npm installed without using the -save flag.

Running the home command will open the homepage of the package you're running it against. We've compiled this list of 11 simple-to-use npm tricks that will allow you to speed up development using npm, no matter what project you're working on. As you can probably imagine, that was insanely stressful. Personally, even learning and using just one of these tricks ( npm prune, which is #4) saved me from getting rid of unused modules manually by deleting node_modules and re-installing everything with npm install. There are a ton of features built-in, and it can be a daunting task to try to approach learning them. This blog post was first published on March 2017.
