+npm-search(3) -- Search for packages
+====================================
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+
+ npm.commands.search(searchTerms, [silent,] [staleness,] callback)
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+
+Search the registry for packages matching the search terms. The available parameters are:
+
+* searchTerms:
+ Array of search terms. These terms are case-insensitive.
+* silent:
+ If true, npm will not log anything to the console.
+* staleness:
+ This is the threshold for stale packages. "Fresh" packages are not refreshed
+ from the registry. This value is measured in seconds.
+* callback:
+ Returns an object where each key is the name of a package, and the value
+ is information about that package along with a 'words' property, which is
+ a space-delimited string of all of the interesting words in that package.
+ The only properties included are those that are searched, which generally include:
+
+ * name
+ * description
+ * maintainers
+ * url
+ * keywords
+
+A search on the registry excludes any result that does not match all of the
+search terms. It also removes any items from the results that contain an
+excluded term (the "searchexclude" config). The search is case insensitive
+and doesn't try to read your mind (it doesn't do any verb tense matching or the
+like).
