<h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>
|

|
|
<pre><code>npm publish [<tarball>|<folder>] [--tag <tag>] [--access <public|restricted>]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Publishes '.' if no argument supplied
|
|
|
|
Sets tag 'latest' if no --tag specified
|
|
|
|
</code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Publishes a package to the registry so that it can be installed by name. All
|
|
|
|
files in the package directory are included if no local <code>.gitignore</code> or
|
|
|
|
<code>.npmignore</code> file exists. If both files exist and a file is ignored by
|
|
|
|
<code>.gitignore</code> but not by <code>.npmignore</code> then it will be included. See
|
|
|
|
<code><a href="../misc/npm-developers.html">npm-developers(7)</a></code> for full details on what's included in the published
|
|
|
|
package, as well as details on how the package is built.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>By default npm will publish to the public registry. This can be overridden by
|
|
|
|
specifying a different default registry or using a <code><a href="../misc/npm-scope.html">npm-scope(7)</a></code> in the name
|
|
|
|
(see <code><a href="../files/package.json.html">package.json(5)</a></code>).</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li><p><code><folder></code>:
|
|
|
|
A folder containing a package.json file</p>
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p><code><tarball></code>:
|
|
|
|
A url or file path to a gzipped tar archive containing a single folder
|
|
|
|
with a package.json file inside.</p>
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p><code>[--tag <tag>]</code>
|
|
|
|
Registers the published package with the given tag, such that <code>npm install
|
|
|
|
<name>@<tag></code> will install this version. By default, <code>npm publish</code> updates
|
|
|
|
and <code>npm install</code> installs the <code>latest</code> tag. See <code><a href="../cli/npm-dist-tag.html">npm-dist-tag(1)</a></code> for
|
|
|
|
details about tags.</p>
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p><code>[--access <public|restricted>]</code>
|
|
|
|
Tells the registry whether this package should be published as public or
|
|
|
|
restricted. Only applies to scoped packages, which default to <code>restricted</code>.
|
|
|
|
If you don't have a paid account, you must publish with <code>--access public</code>
|
|
|
|
to publish scoped packages.</p>
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>Fails if the package name and version combination already exists in
|
|
|
|
the specified registry.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Once a package is published with a given name and version, that
|
|
|
|
specific name and version combination can never be used again, even if
|
|
|
|
it is removed with <a href="../cli/npm-unpublish.html">npm-unpublish(1)</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For a "dry run" that does everything except actually publishing to the
|
|
|
|
registry, see <code><a href="../cli/npm-pack.html">npm-pack(1)</a></code>, which figures out the files to be included and
|
|
|
|
packs them into a tarball to be uploaded to the registry.</p>
