It puts +modules in place so that node can find them, and manages dependency +conflicts intelligently. + +It is extremely configurable to support a wide variety of use cases. +Most commonly, it is used to publish, discover, install, and develop node +programs. + +Run `npm help` to get a list of available commands. + +## INTRODUCTION + +You probably got npm because you want to install stuff. + +Use `npm install blerg` to install the latest version of "blerg". Check out +`npm-install(1)` for more info. It can do a lot of stuff. + +Use the `npm search` command to show everything that's available. +Use `npm ls` to show everything you've installed. + +## DEPENDENCIES + +If a package references to another package with a git URL, npm depends +on a preinstalled git. + +If one of the packages npm tries to install is a native node module and +requires compiling of C++ Code, npm will use +[node-gyp](https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp) for that task. +For a Unix system, [node-gyp](https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp) +needs Python, make and a buildchain like GCC. On Windows, +Python and Microsoft Visual Studio C++ are needed. Python 3 is +not supported by [node-gyp](https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp). +For more information visit +[the node-gyp repository](https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp) and +the [node-gyp Wiki](https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp/wiki). + +## DIRECTORIES + +See `npm-folders(5)` to learn about where npm puts stuff. + +In particular, npm has two modes of operation: + +* global mode: + npm installs packages into the install prefix at + `prefix/lib/node_modules` and bins are installed in `prefix/bin`. +* local mode: + npm installs packages into the current project directory, which + defaults to the current working directory. Packages are installed to + `./node_modules`, and bins are installed to `./node_modules/.bin`. + +Local mode is the default. Use `--global` or `-g` on any command to +operate in global mode instead. + +## DEVELOPER USAGE + +If you're using npm to develop and publish your code, check out the +following help topics: + +* json: + Make a package.json file. See `package.json(5)`. +* link: + For linking your current working code into Node's path, so that you + don't have to reinstall every time you make a change. Use + `npm link` to do this. +* install: + It's a good idea to install things if you don't need the symbolic link. + Especially, installing other peoples code from the registry is done via + `npm install` +* adduser: + Create an account or log in. Credentials are stored in the + user config file. +* publish: + Use the `npm publish` command to upload your code to the registry. + +## CONFIGURATION + +npm is extremely configurable. It reads its configuration options from +5 places. + +* Command line switches: + Set a config with `--key val`. All keys take a value, even if they + are booleans (the config parser doesn't know what the options are at + the time of parsing.) If no value is provided, then the option is set + to boolean `true`. +* Environment Variables: + Set any config by prefixing the name in an environment variable with + `npm_config_`. For example, `export npm_config_key=val`. +* User Configs: + The file at $HOME/.npmrc is an ini-formatted list of configs. If + present, it is parsed. If the `userconfig` option is set in the cli + or env, then that will be used instead. +* Global Configs: + The file found at ../etc/npmrc (from the node executable, by default + this resolves to /usr/local/etc/npmrc) will be parsed if it is found. + If the `globalconfig` option is set in the cli, env, or user config, + then that file is parsed instead. +* Defaults: + npm's default configuration options are defined in + lib/utils/config-defs.js. These must not be changed. + +See `npm-config(7)` for much much more information. + +## CONTRIBUTIONS + +Patches welcome! + +* code: + Read through `npm-coding-style(7)` if you plan to submit code. + You don't have to agree with it, but you do have to follow it. +* docs: + If you find an error in the documentation, edit the appropriate markdown + file in the "doc" folder. (Don't worry about generating the man page.) + +Contributors are listed in npm's `package.json` file. You can view them +easily by doing `npm view npm contributors`. + +If you would like to contribute, but don't know what to work on, read +the contributing guidelines and check the issues list. + +* https://github.com/npm/npm/wiki/Contributing-Guidelines +* + +## BUGS + +When you find issues, please report them: + +* web: + + +Be sure to include *all* of the output from the npm command that didn't work +as expected. The `npm-debug.log` file is also helpful to provide. + +You can also look for isaacs in #node.js on irc://irc.freenode.net. He +will no doubt tell you to put the output in a gist or email. + +## AUTHOR + +[Isaac Z.
