npm-edit(3) -- Edit an installed package
|
||
|
|
========================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
npm.commands.edit(package, callback)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Opens the package folder in the default editor (or whatever you've
|
||
|
|
configured as the npm `editor` config -- see `npm help config`.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After it has been edited, the package is rebuilt so as to pick up any
|
||
|
|
changes in compiled packages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For instance, you can do `npm install connect` to install connect
|
||
|
|
into your package, and then `npm.commands.edit(["connect"], callback)`
|
||
|
|
to make a few changes to your locally installed copy.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The first parameter is a string array with a single element, the package
|
||
|
|
to open. The package can optionally have a version number attached.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Since this command opens an editor in a new process, be careful about where
|
||
|
|
and how this is used.
