+<h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>
+<pre><code>npm.commands.search(searchTerms, [silent,] [staleness,] callback)
+</code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
+<p>Search the registry for packages matching the search terms. The available parameters are:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>searchTerms:
+Array of search terms. These terms are case-insensitive.</li>
+<li>silent:
+If true, npm will not log anything to the console.</li>
+<li>staleness:
+This is the threshold for stale packages. "Fresh" packages are not refreshed
+from the registry. This value is measured in seconds.</li>
+<li><p>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:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>name</li>
+<li>description</li>
+<li>maintainers</li>
+<li>url</li>
+<li>keywords</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>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).</p>
