### Synopsis
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm publish [<tarball>|<folder>] [--tag <tag>] [--access <public|restricted>] [--otp otpcode] [--dry-run]
|
|
|
|
Publishes '.' if no argument supplied
|
|
Sets tag 'latest' if no --tag specified
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Description
|
|
|
|
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 `.gitignore` or
|
|
`.npmignore` file exists. If both files exist and a file is ignored by
|
|
`.gitignore` but not by `.npmignore` then it will be included. See
|
|
[`developers`](/using-npm/developers) for full 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 [`scope`](/using-npm/scope) in the name (see [`package.json`](/configuring-npm/package-json)).
|
|
|
|
* `<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. See
|
|
[`npm-dist-tag`](npm-dist-tag) for details about tags.
|
|
|
|
* `[--access <public|restricted>]`
|
|
Tells the registry whether this package should be published as public or
|
|
restricted. Only applies to scoped packages, which default to `restricted`.
|
|
If you don't have a paid account, you must publish with `--access public`
|
|
to publish scoped packages.
|
|
|
|
* `[--otp <otpcode>]`
|
|
If you have two-factor authentication enabled in `auth-and-writes` mode
|
|
then you can provide a code from your authenticator with this. If you
|
|
don't include this and you're running from a TTY then you'll be prompted.
|
|
|
|
* `[--dry-run]`
|
|
As of `npm@6`, does everything publish would do except actually publishing
|
|
to the registry. Reports the details of what would have been published.
|
|
|
|
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`](/commands/npm-unpublish).
|
|
|
|
As of `npm@5`, both a sha1sum and an integrity field with a sha512sum of the
|
|
tarball will be submitted to the registry during publication. Subsequent
|
|
installs will use the strongest supported algorithm to verify downloads.
|
|
|
|
Similar to `--dry-run` see [`npm pack`](/commands/npm-pack), which figures out the files to be
|
|
included and packs them into a tarball to be uploaded to the registry.
