If the package has a package-lock or shrinkwrap file, the installation of dependencies will be driven by that, with an <code class="language-text">npm-shrinkwrap.json</code> taking precedence if both files exist. See <a href="../../configuring-npm/package-lock-json">package-lock.json</a> and <a href="../../cli-commands/npm-shrinkwrap"><code class="language-text">npm shrinkwrap</code></a>.</p> <p>A <code class="language-text">package</code> is:</p> <ul> <li>a) a folder containing a program described by a <a href="../../configuring-npm/package-json"><code class="language-text">package.json</code></a> file</li> <li>b) a gzipped tarball containing (a)</li> <li>c) a url that resolves to (b)</li> <li>d) a <code class="language-text"><name>@<version></code> that is published on the registry (see <a href="../../using-npm/registry"><code class="language-text">registry</code></a>) with (c)</li> <li>e) a <code class="language-text"><name>@<tag></code> (see <a href="../../cli-commands/npm-dist-tag"><code class="language-text">npm dist-tag</code></a>) that points to (d)</li> <li>f) a <code class="language-text"><name></code> that has a "latest" tag satisfying (e)</li> <li>g) a <code class="language-text"><git remote url></code> that resolves to (a)</li> </ul> <p>Even if you never publish your package, you can still get a lot of benefits of using npm if you just want to write a node program (a), and perhaps if you also want to be able to easily install it elsewhere after packing it up into a tarball (b).</p> <ul> <li> <p><code class="language-text">npm install</code> (in package directory, no arguments):</p> <p>Install the dependencies in the local node_modules folder.</p> <p>In global mode (ie, with <code class="language-text">-g</code> or <code class="language-text">--global</code> appended to the command), it installs the current package context (ie, the current working directory) as a global package.</p> <p>By default, <code class="language-text">npm install</code> will install all modules listed as dependencies in <a href="../../configuring-npm/package-json"><code class="language-text">package.json</code></a>.</p> <p>With the <code class="language-text">--production</code> flag (or when the <code class="language-text">NODE_ENV</code> environment variable is set to <code class="language-text">production</code>), npm will not install modules listed in <code class="language-text">devDependencies</code>. To install all modules listed in both <code class="language-text">dependencies</code> and <code class="language-text">devDependencies</code> when <code class="language-text">NODE_ENV</code> environment variable is set to <code class="language-text">production</code>, you can use <code class="language-text">--production=false</code>.</p> <blockquote> <p>NOTE: The <code class="language-text">--production</code> flag has no particular meaning when adding a dependency to a project.</p> </blockquote> </li> <li> <p><code class="language-text">npm install <folder></code>:</p> <p>Install the package in the directory as a symlink in the current project. Its dependencies will be installed before it's linked. If <code class="language-text"><folder></code> sits inside the root of your project, its dependencies may be hoisted to the toplevel <code class="language-text">node_modules</code> as they would for other types of dependencies.</p> </li> <li> <p><code class="language-text">npm install <tarball file></code>:</p> <p>Install a package that is sitting on the filesystem. Note: if you just want to link a dev directory into your npm root, you can do this more easily by using <code class="language-text">npm link</code>.</p> <p>Tarball requirements:</p> <ul> <li>The filename <em>must</em> use <code class="language-text">.tar</code>, <code class="language-text">.tar.gz</code>, or <code class="language-text">.tgz</code> as the extension.</li> <li>The package contents should reside in a subfolder inside the tarball (usually it is called <code class="language-text">package/</code>). npm strips one directory layer when installing the package (an equivalent of <code class="language-text">tar x --strip-components=1</code> is run).</li> <li>The package must contain a <code class="language-text">package.json</code> file with <code class="language-text">name</code> and <code class="language-text">version</code> properties.</li> </ul> <p>Example:</p> <div class="gatsby-highlight" data-language="text"><pre class="language-text"><code class="language-text"> npm install ./package.tgz</code></pre></div> </li> <li> <p><code class="language-text">npm install <tarball url></code>:</p> <p>Fetch the tarball url, and then install it. In order to distinguish between this and other options, the argument must start with "http://" or "https://"</p> <p>Example:</p> <div class="gatsby-highlight" data-language="text"><pre class="language-text"><code class="language-text"> npm install https://github.com/indexzero/forever/tarball/v0.5.6</code></pre></div> </li> <li> <p><code class="language-text">npm install [<@scope>/]<name></code>:</p> <p>Do a <code class="language-text"><name>@<tag></code> install, where <code class="language-text"><tag></code> is the "tag" config. (See <a href="../../using-npm/config"><code class="language-text">config</code></a>. The config's default value is <code class="language-text">latest</code>.)</p> <p>In most cases, this will install the version of the modules tagged as <code class="language-text">latest</code> on the npm registry.</p> <p>Example:</p> <div class="gatsby-highlight" data-language="text"><pre class="language-text"><code class="language-text"> npm install sax</code></pre></div> </li> <li> <p><code class="language-text">npm install <alias>@npm:<name></code>:</p> <p>Install a package under a custom alias. Allows multiple versions of a same-name package side-by-side, more convenient import names for packages with otherwise long ones and using git forks replacements or forked npm packages as replacements. Aliasing works only on your project and does not rename packages in transitive dependencies. Aliases should follow the naming conventions stated in <a href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/validate-npm-package-name#naming-rules"><code class="language-text">validate-npm-package-name</code></a>.</p> <p>Examples:</p> <div class="gatsby-highlight" data-language="text"><pre class="language-text"><code class="language-text"> npm install my-react@npm:react npm install jquery2@npm:jquery@2 npm install jquery3@npm:jquery@3 npm install npa@npm:npm-package-arg</code></pre></div> <p><code class="language-text">npm install</code> saves any specified packages into <code class="language-text">dependencies</code> by default. Additionally, you can control where and how they get saved with some additional flags:</p> <ul> <li><code class="language-text">-P, --save-prod</code>: Package will appear in your <code class="language-text">dependencies</code>. This is the default unless <code class="language-text">-D</code> or <code class="language-text">-O</code> are present.</li> <li><code class="language-text">-D, --save-dev</code>: Package will appear in your <code class="language-text">devDependencies</code>.</li> <li><code class="language-text">-O, --save-optional</code>: Package will appear in your <code class="language-text">optionalDependencies</code>.</li> <li><code class="language-text">--no-save</code>: Prevents saving to <code class="language-text">dependencies</code>.</li> </ul> <p>When using any of the above options to save dependencies to your package.json, there are two additional, optional flags:</p> <ul> <li><code class="language-text">-E, --save-exact</code>: Saved dependencies will be configured with an exact version rather than using npm's default semver range operator.</li> <li><code class="language-text">-B, --save-bundle</code>: Saved dependencies will also be added to your <code class="language-text">bundleDependencies</code> list.</li> </ul> <p>Further, if you have an <code class="language-text">npm-shrinkwrap.json</code> or <code class="language-text">package-lock.json</code> then it will be updated as well.</p> <p><code class="language-text"><scope></code> is optional. The package will be downloaded from the registry associated with the specified scope. If no registry is associated with the given scope the default registry is assumed. See <a href="../../using-npm/scope"><code class="language-text">scope</code></a>.</p> <p>Note: if you do not include the @-symbol on your scope name, npm will interpret this as a GitHub repository instead, see below. Scopes names must also be followed by a slash.</p> <p>Examples:</p> <div class="gatsby-highlight" data-language="bash"><pre class="language-bash"><code class="language-bash"><span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> sax <span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> githubname/reponame <span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> @myorg/privatepackage <span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> node-tap --save-dev <span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> dtrace-provider --save-optional <span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> readable-stream --save-exact <span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> ansi-regex --save-bundle</code></pre></div> <p><strong>Note</strong>: If there is a file or folder named <code class="language-text"><name></code> in the current working directory, then it will try to install that, and only try to fetch the package by name if it is not valid.</p> </li> <li> <p><code class="language-text">npm install [<@scope>/]<name>@<tag></code>:</p> <p>Install the version of the package that is referenced by the specified tag. If the tag does not exist in the registry data for that package, then this will fail.</p> <p>Example:</p> <div class="gatsby-highlight" data-language="bash"><pre class="language-bash"><code class="language-bash"><span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> sax@latest <span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> @myorg/mypackage@latest</code></pre></div> </li> <li> <p><code class="language-text">npm install [<@scope>/]<name>@<version></code>:</p> <p>Install the specified version of the package. This will fail if the version has not been published to the registry.</p> <p>Example:</p> <div class="gatsby-highlight" data-language="bash"><pre class="language-bash"><code class="language-bash"><span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> sax@0.1.1 <span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> @myorg/privatepackage@1.5.0</code></pre></div> </li> <li> <p><code class="language-text">npm install [<@scope>/]<name>@<version range></code>:</p> <p>Install a version of the package matching the specified version range. This will follow the same rules for resolving dependencies described in <a href="../../configuring-npm/package-json"><code class="language-text">package.json</code></a>.</p> <p>Note that most version ranges must be put in quotes so that your shell will treat it as a single argument.</p> <p>Example:</p> <div class="gatsby-highlight" data-language="bash"><pre class="language-bash"><code class="language-bash"><span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> sax@<span class="token string">">=0.1.0 <0.2.0"</span> <span class="token function">npm</span> <span class="token function">install</span> @myorg/privatepackage@<span class="token string">">=0.1.0 <0.2.0"</span></code></pre></div> </li> <li> <p><code class="language-text">npm install <git remote url></code>:</p> <p>Installs the package from the hosted git provider, cloning it with <code class="language-text">git</code>.

This can be overridden with the <code class="language-text">--force</code> flag, but in most cases can simply be addressed by changing the local package name.</p> <p>There are some very rare and pathological edge-cases where a cycle can cause npm to try to install a never-ending tree of packages. Here is the simplest case:</p> <div class="gatsby-highlight" data-language="bash"><pre class="language-bash"><code class="language-bash">A -<span class="token operator">></span> B -<span class="token operator">></span> A<span class="token string">' -> B'</span> -<span class="token operator">></span> A -<span class="token operator">></span> B -<span class="token operator">></span> A<span class="token string">' -> B'</span> -<span class="token operator">></span> A -<span class="token operator">></span> <span class="token punctuation">..</span>.</code></pre></div> <p>where <code class="language-text">A</code> is some version of a package, and <code class="language-text">A'</code> is a different version of the same package. Because <code class="language-text">B</code> depends on a different version of <code class="language-text">A</code> than the one that is already in the tree, it must install a separate copy. The same is true of <code class="language-text">A'</code>, which must install <code class="language-text">B'</code>. Because <code class="language-text">B'</code> depends on the original version of <code class="language-text">A</code>, which has been overridden, the cycle falls into infinite regress.</p> <p>To avoid this situation, npm flat-out refuses to install any <code class="language-text">name@version</code> that is already present anywhere in the tree of package folder ancestors. A more correct, but more complex, solution would be to symlink the existing version into the new location. If this ever affects a real use-case, it will be investigated.</p> <h3 id="see-also" style="position:relative;"><a href="#see-also" aria-label="see also permalink" class="header-link-class before"><svg aria-hidden="true" height="20" version="1.1" viewBox="0 0 16 16" width="20"><path fill-rule="evenodd" d="M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z"></path></svg></a>See Also</h3> <ul> <li><a href="../../configuring-npm/folders">npm folders</a></li> <li><a href="../../cli-commands/npm-update">npm update</a></li> <li><a href="../../cli-commands/npm-audit">npm audit</a></li> <li><a href="../../cli-commands/npm-fund">npm fund</a></li> <li><a href="../../cli-commands/npm-link">npm link</a></li> <li><a href="../../cli-commands/npm-rebuild">npm rebuild</a></li> <li><a href="../../using-npm/scripts">npm scripts</a></li> <li><a href="../../cli-commands/npm-build">npm build</a></li> <li><a href="../../cli-commands/npm-config">npm config</a></li> <li><a href="../../configuring-npm/npmrc">npmrc</a></li> <li><a href="../../using-npm/registry">npm registry</a></li> <li><a href="../../cli-commands/npm-dist-tag">npm dist-tag</a></li> <li><a href="../../cli-commands/npm-uninstall">npm uninstall</a></li> <li><a href="../../cli-commands/npm-shrinkwrap">npm shrinkwrap</a></li> <li><a href="../../configuring-npm/package-json">package.json</a></li> </ul></div><div class="FoundTypo__Container-sc-1e373sc-0 fMOzaj"><p><span role="img" aria-label="eyes-emoji">👀</span> Found a typo? <a href="https://github.com/npm/cli/">Let us know!</a></p><p>The current stable version of npm is <a href="https://github.com/npm/cli/">here</a>.
