*/
'use strict'
exports[`test/lib/utils/config/describe-all.js TAP > must match snapshot 1`] = `
#### \`_auth\`
* Default: null
* Type: null or String
A basic-auth string to use when authenticating against the npm registry.
Warning: This should generally not be set via a command-line option. It is
safer to use a registry-provided authentication bearer token stored in the
~/.npmrc file by running \`npm login\`.
#### \`access\`
* Default: 'restricted' for scoped packages, 'public' for unscoped packages
* Type: null, "restricted", or "public"
When publishing scoped packages, the access level defaults to \`restricted\`.
If you want your scoped package to be publicly viewable (and installable)
set \`--access=public\`. The only valid values for \`access\` are \`public\` and
\`restricted\`. Unscoped packages _always_ have an access level of \`public\`.
#### \`all\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
When running \`npm outdated\` and \`npm ls\`, setting \`--all\` will show all
outdated or installed packages, rather than only those directly depended
upon by the current project.
#### \`allow-same-version\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Prevents throwing an error when \`npm version\` is used to set the new version
to the same value as the current version.
#### \`audit\`
* Default: true
* Type: Boolean
When "true" submit audit reports alongside \`npm install\` runs to the default
registry and all registries configured for scopes. See the documentation for
[\`npm audit\`](/commands/npm-audit) for details on what is submitted.
#### \`audit-level\`
* Default: null
* Type: null, "info", "low", "moderate", "high", "critical", or "none"
The minimum level of vulnerability for \`npm audit\` to exit with a non-zero
exit code.
#### \`before\`
* Default: null
* Type: null or Date
If passed to \`npm install\`, will rebuild the npm tree such that only
versions that were available **on or before** the \`--before\` time get
installed. If there's no versions available for the current set of direct
dependencies, the command will error.
If the requested version is a \`dist-tag\` and the given tag does not pass the
\`--before\` filter, the most recent version less than or equal to that tag
will be used. For example, \`foo@latest\` might install \`foo@1.2\` even though
\`latest\` is \`2.0\`.
#### \`bin-links\`
* Default: true
* Type: Boolean
Tells npm to create symlinks (or \`.cmd\` shims on Windows) for package
executables.
Set to false to have it not do this. This can be used to work around the
fact that some file systems don't support symlinks, even on ostensibly Unix
systems.
#### \`browser\`
* Default: OS X: \`"open"\`, Windows: \`"start"\`, Others: \`"xdg-open"\`
* Type: null, Boolean, or String
The browser that is called by npm commands to open websites.
Set to \`false\` to suppress browser behavior and instead print urls to
terminal.
Set to \`true\` to use default system URL opener.
#### \`ca\`
* Default: null
* Type: null or String (can be set multiple times)
The Certificate Authority signing certificate that is trusted for SSL
connections to the registry. Values should be in PEM format (Windows calls
it "Base-64 encoded X.509 (.CER)") with newlines replaced by the string
"\\n". For example:
\`\`\`ini
ca="-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\\nXXXX\\nXXXX\\n-----END CERTIFICATE-----"
\`\`\`
Set to \`null\` to only allow "known" registrars, or to a specific CA cert to
trust only that specific signing authority.
Multiple CAs can be trusted by specifying an array of certificates:
\`\`\`ini
ca[]="..."
ca[]="..."
\`\`\`
See also the \`strict-ssl\` config.
#### \`cache\`
* Default: Windows: \`%LocalAppData%\\npm-cache\`, Posix: \`~/.npm\`
* Type: Path
The location of npm's cache directory. See [\`npm
cache\`](/commands/npm-cache)
#### \`cafile\`
* Default: null
* Type: Path
A path to a file containing one or multiple Certificate Authority signing
certificates. Similar to the \`ca\` setting, but allows for multiple CA's, as
well as for the CA information to be stored in a file on disk.
#### \`call\`
* Default: ""
* Type: String
Optional companion option for \`npm exec\`, \`npx\` that allows for specifying a
custom command to be run along with the installed packages.
\`\`\`bash
npm exec --package yo --package generator-node --call "yo node"
\`\`\`
#### \`cert\`
* Default: null
* Type: null or String
A client certificate to pass when accessing the registry. Values should be
in PEM format (Windows calls it "Base-64 encoded X.509 (.CER)") with
newlines replaced by the string "\\n". For example:
\`\`\`ini
cert="-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\\nXXXX\\nXXXX\\n-----END CERTIFICATE-----"
\`\`\`
It is _not_ the path to a certificate file (and there is no "certfile"
option).
#### \`ci-name\`
* Default: The name of the current CI system, or \`null\` when not on a known CI
platform.
* Type: null or String
The name of a continuous integration system. If not set explicitly, npm will
detect the current CI environment using the
[\`@npmcli/ci-detect\`](http://npm.im/@npmcli/ci-detect) module.
#### \`cidr\`
* Default: null
* Type: null or String (can be set multiple times)
This is a list of CIDR address to be used when configuring limited access
tokens with the \`npm token create\` command.
#### \`color\`
* Default: true unless the NO_COLOR environ is set to something other than '0'
* Type: "always" or Boolean
If false, never shows colors. If \`"always"\` then always shows colors. If
true, then only prints color codes for tty file descriptors.
#### \`commit-hooks\`
* Default: true
* Type: Boolean
Run git commit hooks when using the \`npm version\` command.
#### \`depth\`
* Default: \`Infinity\` if \`--all\` is set, otherwise \`1\`
* Type: null or Number
The depth to go when recursing packages for \`npm ls\`.
If not set, \`npm ls\` will show only the immediate dependencies of the root
project. If \`--all\` is set, then npm will show all dependencies by default.
#### \`description\`
* Default: true
* Type: Boolean
Show the description in \`npm search\`
#### \`diff\`
* Default:
* Type: String (can be set multiple times)
Define arguments to compare in \`npm diff\`.
#### \`diff-dst-prefix\`
* Default: "b/"
* Type: String
Destination prefix to be used in \`npm diff\` output.
#### \`diff-ignore-all-space\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Ignore whitespace when comparing lines in \`npm diff\`.
#### \`diff-name-only\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Prints only filenames when using \`npm diff\`.
#### \`diff-no-prefix\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Do not show any source or destination prefix in \`npm diff\` output.
Note: this causes \`npm diff\` to ignore the \`--diff-src-prefix\` and
\`--diff-dst-prefix\` configs.
#### \`diff-src-prefix\`
* Default: "a/"
* Type: String
Source prefix to be used in \`npm diff\` output.
#### \`diff-text\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Treat all files as text in \`npm diff\`.
#### \`diff-unified\`
* Default: 3
* Type: Number
The number of lines of context to print in \`npm diff\`.
#### \`dry-run\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Indicates that you don't want npm to make any changes and that it should
only report what it would have done. This can be passed into any of the
commands that modify your local installation, eg, \`install\`, \`update\`,
\`dedupe\`, \`uninstall\`, as well as \`pack\` and \`publish\`.
Note: This is NOT honored by other network related commands, eg \`dist-tags\`,
\`owner\`, etc.
#### \`editor\`
* Default: The EDITOR or VISUAL environment variables, or 'notepad.exe' on
Windows, or 'vim' on Unix systems
* Type: String
The command to run for \`npm edit\` and \`npm config edit\`.
#### \`engine-strict\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
If set to true, then npm will stubbornly refuse to install (or even consider
installing) any package that claims to not be compatible with the current
Node.js version.
This can be overridden by setting the \`--force\` flag.
#### \`fetch-retries\`
* Default: 2
* Type: Number
The "retries" config for the \`retry\` module to use when fetching packages
from the registry.
npm will retry idempotent read requests to the registry in the case of
network failures or 5xx HTTP errors.
#### \`fetch-retry-factor\`
* Default: 10
* Type: Number
The "factor" config for the \`retry\` module to use when fetching packages.
#### \`fetch-retry-maxtimeout\`
* Default: 60000 (1 minute)
* Type: Number
The "maxTimeout" config for the \`retry\` module to use when fetching
packages.
#### \`fetch-retry-mintimeout\`
* Default: 10000 (10 seconds)
* Type: Number
The "minTimeout" config for the \`retry\` module to use when fetching
packages.
#### \`fetch-timeout\`
* Default: 300000 (5 minutes)
* Type: Number
The maximum amount of time to wait for HTTP requests to complete.
#### \`force\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Removes various protections against unfortunate side effects, common
mistakes, unnecessary performance degradation, and malicious input.
* Allow clobbering non-npm files in global installs.
* Allow the \`npm version\` command to work on an unclean git repository.
* Allow deleting the cache folder with \`npm cache clean\`.
* Allow installing packages that have an \`engines\` declaration requiring a
different version of npm.
* Allow installing packages that have an \`engines\` declaration requiring a
different version of \`node\`, even if \`--engine-strict\` is enabled.
* Allow \`npm audit fix\` to install modules outside your stated dependency
range (including SemVer-major changes).
* Allow unpublishing all versions of a published package.
* Allow conflicting peerDependencies to be installed in the root project.
If you don't have a clear idea of what you want to do, it is strongly
recommended that you do not use this option!
#### \`foreground-scripts\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Run all build scripts (ie, \`preinstall\`, \`install\`, and \`postinstall\`)
scripts for installed packages in the foreground process, sharing standard
input, output, and error with the main npm process.
Note that this will generally make installs run slower, and be much noisier,
but can be useful for debugging.
#### \`format-package-lock\`
* Default: true
* Type: Boolean
Format \`package-lock.json\` or \`npm-shrinkwrap.json\` as a human readable
file.
#### \`fund\`
* Default: true
* Type: Boolean
When "true" displays the message at the end of each \`npm install\`
acknowledging the number of dependencies looking for funding. See [\`npm
fund\`](/commands/npm-fund) for details.
#### \`git\`
* Default: "git"
* Type: String
The command to use for git commands. If git is installed on the computer,
but is not in the \`PATH\`, then set this to the full path to the git binary.
#### \`git-tag-version\`
* Default: true
* Type: Boolean
Tag the commit when using the \`npm version\` command.
#### \`global\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Operates in "global" mode, so that packages are installed into the \`prefix\`
folder instead of the current working directory. See
[folders](/configuring-npm/folders) for more on the differences in behavior.
* packages are installed into the \`{prefix}/lib/node_modules\` folder, instead
of the current working directory.
* bin files are linked to \`{prefix}/bin\`
* man pages are linked to \`{prefix}/share/man\`
#### \`global-style\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Causes npm to install the package into your local \`node_modules\` folder with
the same layout it uses with the global \`node_modules\` folder. Only your
direct dependencies will show in \`node_modules\` and everything they depend
on will be flattened in their \`node_modules\` folders. This obviously will
eliminate some deduping. If used with \`legacy-bundling\`, \`legacy-bundling\`
will be preferred.
#### \`globalconfig\`
* Default: The global --prefix setting plus 'etc/npmrc'. For example,
'/usr/local/etc/npmrc'
* Type: Path
The config file to read for global config options.
#### \`heading\`
* Default: "npm"
* Type: String
The string that starts all the debugging log output.
#### \`https-proxy\`
* Default: null
* Type: null or URL
A proxy to use for outgoing https requests. If the \`HTTPS_PROXY\` or
\`https_proxy\` or \`HTTP_PROXY\` or \`http_proxy\` environment variables are set,
proxy settings will be honored by the underlying \`make-fetch-happen\`
library.
#### \`if-present\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
If true, npm will not exit with an error code when \`run-script\` is invoked
for a script that isn't defined in the \`scripts\` section of \`package.json\`.
This option can be used when it's desirable to optionally run a script when
it's present and fail if the script fails. This is useful, for example, when
running scripts that may only apply for some builds in an otherwise generic
CI setup.
#### \`ignore-scripts\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
If true, npm does not run scripts specified in package.json files.
#### \`include\`
* Default:
* Type: "prod", "dev", "optional", or "peer" (can be set multiple times)
Option that allows for defining which types of dependencies to install.
This is the inverse of \`--omit=<type>\`.
Dependency types specified in \`--include\` will not be omitted, regardless of
the order in which omit/include are specified on the command-line.
#### \`include-staged\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Allow installing "staged" published packages, as defined by [npm RFC PR
#92](https://github.com/npm/rfcs/pull/92).
This is experimental, and not implemented by the npm public registry.
#### \`init-author-email\`
* Default: ""
* Type: String
The value \`npm init\` should use by default for the package author's email.
#### \`init-author-name\`
* Default: ""
* Type: String
The value \`npm init\` should use by default for the package author's name.
#### \`init-author-url\`
* Default: ""
* Type: "" or URL
The value \`npm init\` should use by default for the package author's
homepage.
#### \`init-license\`
* Default: "ISC"
* Type: String
The value \`npm init\` should use by default for the package license.
#### \`init-module\`
* Default: "~/.npm-init.js"
* Type: Path
A module that will be loaded by the \`npm init\` command. See the
documentation for the
[init-package-json](https://github.com/npm/init-package-json) module for
more information, or [npm init](/commands/npm-init).
#### \`init-version\`
* Default: "1.0.0"
* Type: SemVer string
The value that \`npm init\` should use by default for the package version
number, if not already set in package.json.
#### \`json\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Whether or not to output JSON data, rather than the normal output.
This feature is currently experimental, and the output data structures for
many commands is either not implemented in JSON yet, or subject to change.
Only the output from \`npm ls --json\` and \`npm search --json\` are currently
valid.
#### \`key\`
* Default: null
* Type: null or String
A client key to pass when accessing the registry. Values should be in PEM
format with newlines replaced by the string "\\n". For example:
\`\`\`ini
key="-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\\nXXXX\\nXXXX\\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----"
\`\`\`
It is _not_ the path to a key file (and there is no "keyfile" option).
#### \`legacy-bundling\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Causes npm to install the package such that versions of npm prior to 1.4,
such as the one included with node 0.8, can install the package. This
eliminates all automatic deduping. If used with \`global-style\` this option
will be preferred.
#### \`legacy-peer-deps\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Causes npm to completely ignore \`peerDependencies\` when building a package
tree, as in npm versions 3 through 6.
If a package cannot be installed because of overly strict \`peerDependencies\`
that collide, it provides a way to move forward resolving the situation.
This differs from \`--omit=peer\`, in that \`--omit=peer\` will avoid unpacking
\`peerDependencies\` on disk, but will still design a tree such that
\`peerDependencies\` _could_ be unpacked in a correct place.
Use of \`legacy-peer-deps\` is not recommended, as it will not enforce the
\`peerDependencies\` contract that meta-dependencies may rely on.
#### \`link\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
If true, then local installs will link if there is a suitable globally
installed package.
Note that this means that local installs can cause things to be installed
into the global space at the same time. The link is only done if one of the
two conditions are met:
* The package is not already installed globally, or
* the globally installed version is identical to the version that is being
installed locally.
#### \`local-address\`
* Default: null
* Type: IP Address
The IP address of the local interface to use when making connections to the
npm registry. Must be IPv4 in versions of Node prior to 0.12.
#### \`loglevel\`
* Default: "notice"
* Type: "silent", "error", "warn", "notice", "http", "timing", "info",
"verbose", or "silly"
What level of logs to report. On failure, *all* logs are written to
\`npm-debug.log\` in the current working directory.
Any logs of a higher level than the setting are shown. The default is
"notice".
#### \`logs-max\`
* Default: 10
* Type: Number
The maximum number of log files to store.
#### \`long\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Show extended information in \`npm ls\` and \`npm search\`.
#### \`maxsockets\`
* Default: 15
* Type: Number
The maximum number of connections to use per origin (protocol/host/port
combination).
#### \`message\`
* Default: "%s"
* Type: String
Commit message which is used by \`npm version\` when creating version commit.
Any "%s" in the message will be replaced with the version number.
#### \`node-options\`
* Default: null
* Type: null or String
Options to pass through to Node.js via the \`NODE_OPTIONS\` environment
variable. This does not impact how npm itself is executed but it does impact
how lifecycle scripts are called.
#### \`node-version\`
* Default: Node.js \`process.version\` value
* Type: SemVer string
The node version to use when checking a package's \`engines\` setting.
#### \`noproxy\`
* Default: The value of the NO_PROXY environment variable
* Type: String (can be set multiple times)
Domain extensions that should bypass any proxies.
Also accepts a comma-delimited string.
#### \`npm-version\`
* Default: Output of \`npm --version\`
* Type: SemVer string
The npm version to use when checking a package's \`engines\` setting.
#### \`offline\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Force offline mode: no network requests will be done during install. To
allow the CLI to fill in missing cache data, see \`--prefer-offline\`.
#### \`omit\`
* Default: 'dev' if the NODE_ENV environment variable is set to 'production',
otherwise empty.
* Type: "dev", "optional", or "peer" (can be set multiple times)
Dependency types to omit from the installation tree on disk.
Note that these dependencies _are_ still resolved and added to the
\`package-lock.json\` or \`npm-shrinkwrap.json\` file. They are just not
physically installed on disk.
If a package type appears in both the \`--include\` and \`--omit\` lists, then
it will be included.
If the resulting omit list includes \`'dev'\`, then the \`NODE_ENV\` environment
variable will be set to \`'production'\` for all lifecycle scripts.
#### \`otp\`
* Default: null
* Type: null or String
This is a one-time password from a two-factor authenticator. It's needed
when publishing or changing package permissions with \`npm access\`.
If not set, and a registry response fails with a challenge for a one-time
password, npm will prompt on the command line for one.
#### \`package\`
* Default:
* Type: String (can be set multiple times)
The package to install for [\`npm exec\`](/commands/npm-exec)
#### \`package-lock\`
* Default: true
* Type: Boolean
If set to false, then ignore \`package-lock.json\` files when installing. This
will also prevent _writing_ \`package-lock.json\` if \`save\` is true.
When package package-locks are disabled, automatic pruning of extraneous
modules will also be disabled. To remove extraneous modules with
package-locks disabled use \`npm prune\`.
#### \`package-lock-only\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
If set to true, it will update only the \`package-lock.json\`, instead of
checking \`node_modules\` and downloading dependencies.
#### \`parseable\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Output parseable results from commands that write to standard output. For
\`npm search\`, this will be tab-separated table format.
#### \`prefer-offline\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
If true, staleness checks for cached data will be bypassed, but missing data
will be requested from the server. To force full offline mode, use
\`--offline\`.
#### \`prefer-online\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
If true, staleness checks for cached data will be forced, making the CLI
look for updates immediately even for fresh package data.
#### \`prefix\`
* Default: In global mode, the folder where the node executable is installed.
In local mode, the nearest parent folder containing either a package.json
file or a node_modules folder.
* Type: Path
The location to install global items. If set on the command line, then it
forces non-global commands to run in the specified folder.
#### \`preid\`
* Default: ""
* Type: String
The "prerelease identifier" to use as a prefix for the "prerelease" part of
a semver. Like the \`rc\` in \`1.2.0-rc.8\`.
#### \`progress\`
* Default: \`true\` unless running in a known CI system
* Type: Boolean
When set to \`true\`, npm will display a progress bar during time intensive
operations, if \`process.stderr\` is a TTY.
Set to \`false\` to suppress the progress bar.
#### \`proxy\`
* Default: null
* Type: null, false, or URL
A proxy to use for outgoing http requests. If the \`HTTP_PROXY\` or
\`http_proxy\` environment variables are set, proxy settings will be honored
by the underlying \`request\` library.
#### \`read-only\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
This is used to mark a token as unable to publish when configuring limited
access tokens with the \`npm token create\` command.
#### \`rebuild-bundle\`
* Default: true
* Type: Boolean
Rebuild bundled dependencies after installation.
#### \`registry\`
* Default: "https://registry.npmjs.org/"
* Type: URL
The base URL of the npm registry.
#### \`save\`
* Default: true
* Type: Boolean
Save installed packages to a package.json file as dependencies.
When used with the \`npm rm\` command, removes the dependency from
package.json.
#### \`save-bundle\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
If a package would be saved at install time by the use of \`--save\`,
\`--save-dev\`, or \`--save-optional\`, then also put it in the
\`bundleDependencies\` list.
Ignore if \`--save-peer\` is set, since peerDependencies cannot be bundled.
#### \`save-dev\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Save installed packages to a package.json file as \`devDependencies\`.
#### \`save-exact\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Dependencies saved to package.json will be configured with an exact version
rather than using npm's default semver range operator.
#### \`save-optional\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Save installed packages to a package.json file as \`optionalDependencies\`.
#### \`save-peer\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Save installed packages. to a package.json file as \`peerDependencies\`
#### \`save-prefix\`
* Default: "^"
* Type: String
Configure how versions of packages installed to a package.json file via
\`--save\` or \`--save-dev\` get prefixed.
For example if a package has version \`1.2.3\`, by default its version is set
to \`^1.2.3\` which allows minor upgrades for that package, but after \`npm
config set save-prefix='~'\` it would be set to \`~1.2.3\` which only allows
patch upgrades.
#### \`save-prod\`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Save installed packages into \`dependencies\` specifically. This is useful if
a package already exists in \`devDependencies\` or \`optionalDependencies\`, but
you want to move it to be a non-optional production dependency.
This is the default behavior if \`--save\` is true, and neither \`--save-dev\`
or \`--save-optional\` are true.
#### \`scope\`
* Default: the scope of the current project, if any, or ""
* Type: String
Associate an operation with a scope for a scoped registry.
Useful when logging in to a private registry for the first time:
\`\`\`bash
npm login --scope=@mycorp --registry=https://registry.mycorp.com
\`\`\`
This will cause \`@mycorp\` to be mapped to the registry for future
installation of packages specified according to the pattern
\`@mycorp/package\`.
#### \`script-shell\`
* Default: '/bin/sh' on POSIX systems, 'cmd.exe' on Windows
* Type: null or String
The shell to use for scripts run with the \`npm exec\`, \`npm run\` and \`npm
init <pkg>\` commands.
#### \`searchexclude\`
* Default: ""
* Type: String
Space-separated options that limit the results from search.

searches.
#### \`searchopts\`
* Default: ""
* Type: String
Space-separated options that are always passed to search.
#### \`searchstaleness\`
* Default: 900
* Type: Number
The age of the cache, in seconds, before another registry request is made if
using legacy search endpoint.
#### \`shell\`
* Default: SHELL environment variable, or "bash" on Posix, or "cmd.exe" on
Windows
* Type: String
The shell to run for the \`npm explore\` command.
