## SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
npm publish <tarball> [--tag <tag>]

npm publish <folder> [--tag <tag>]

## DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Publishes a package to the registry so that it can be installed by name. See
|
|
|
|
`npm-developers(7)` for details on what's included in the published package, as
|
|
|
|
well as details on how the package is built.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default npm will publish to the public registry. This can be overridden by
|
|
|
|
specifying a different default registry or using a `npm-scope(7)` in the name
|
|
|
|
(see `package.json(5)`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `<folder>`:
|
|
|
|
A folder containing a package.json file
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `<tarball>`:
|
|
|
|
A url or file path to a gzipped tar archive containing a single folder
|
|
|
|
with a package.json file inside.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `[--tag <tag>]`
|
|
|
|
Registers the published package with the given tag, such that `npm install
|
|
|
|
<name>@<tag>` will install this version. By default, `npm publish` updates
|
|
|
|
and `npm install` installs the `latest` tag.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fails if the package name and version combination already exists in
|
|
|
|
the specified registry.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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 npm-unpublish(1).
