npm pack [[<@scope>/]<pkg>...] [--dry-run] [--json]- 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.
- Default: false
- Type: Boolean
Whether or not to output JSON data, rather than the normal output.
Not supported by all npm commands.
- Default:
- Type: String (can be set multiple times)
Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces of the current project while filtering by running only the workspaces defined by this configuration option.
Valid values for the workspace config are either:
- Workspace names
- Path to a workspace directory
- Path to a parent workspace directory (will result to selecting all of the nested workspaces)
When set for the npm init command, this may be set to the folder of a
workspace which does not yet exist, to create the folder and set it up as a
brand new workspace within the project.
This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
- Default: false
- Type: Boolean
Enable running a command in the context of all the configured workspaces.
This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
For anything that's installable (that is, a package folder, tarball,
tarball url, git url, name@tag, name@version, name, or scoped name), this
command will fetch it to the cache, copy the tarball to the current working
directory as <name>-<version>.tgz, and then write the filenames out to
stdout.
If the same package is specified multiple times, then the file will be overwritten the second time.
If no arguments are supplied, then npm packs the current package folder.
