  12 <h1><a href="../cli/npm-tag.html">npm-tag</a></h1> <p>Tag a published version</p>
  13 <h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>
  14 <pre><code>npm tag &lt;name&gt;@&lt;version&gt; [&lt;tag&gt;]
  15 </code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
  16 <p>THIS COMMAND IS DEPRECATED. See <a href="../cli/npm-dist-tag.html">npm-dist-tag(1)</a> for details.</p>
  17 <p>Tags the specified version of the package with the specified tag, or the
  18 <code>--tag</code> config if not specified.</p>
  19 <p>A tag can be used when installing packages as a reference to a version instead
  20 of using a specific version number:</p>
  21 <pre><code>npm install &lt;name&gt;@&lt;tag&gt;
  22 </code></pre><p>When installing dependencies, a preferred tagged version may be specified:</p>
  23 <pre><code>npm install --tag &lt;tag&gt;
  24 </code></pre><p>This also applies to <code>npm dedupe</code>.</p>
  25 <p>Publishing a package always sets the &quot;latest&quot; tag to the published version.</p>
  26 <h2 id="purpose">PURPOSE</h2>
  27 <p>Tags can be used to provide an alias instead of version numbers.  For
  28 example, <code>npm</code> currently uses the tag &quot;next&quot; to identify the upcoming
  29 version, and the tag &quot;latest&quot; to identify the current version.</p>
  30 <p>A project might choose to have multiple streams of development, e.g.,
  31 &quot;stable&quot;, &quot;canary&quot;.</p>
  32 <h2 id="caveats">CAVEATS</h2>
  33 <p>Tags must share a namespace with version numbers, because they are
  34 specified in the same slot: <code>npm install &lt;pkg&gt;@&lt;version&gt;</code> vs <code>npm
  35 install &lt;pkg&gt;@&lt;tag&gt;</code>.</p>
  36 <p>Tags that can be interpreted as valid semver ranges will be
  37 rejected. For example, <code>v1.4</code> cannot be used as a tag, because it is
  38 interpreted by semver as <code>&gt;=1.4.0 &lt;1.5.0</code>.  See
  39 <a href="https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/6082">https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/6082</a>.</p>
  40 <p>The simplest way to avoid semver problems with tags is to use tags
  41 that do not begin with a number or the letter <code>v</code>.</p>
