NAME

npm-search - Search for packages

SYNOPSIS

npm search [-l|--long] [search terms ...]

Search the registry for packages matching the search terms. If a term starts with /, then it's interpreted as a regular expression. A trailing / will be ignored in this case. (Note that many regular expression characters must be escaped or quoted in most shells.)

CONFIGURATION

long

*

Default: false

*

Type: Boolean

Display full package descriptions and other long text across multiple lines. When disabled (default) search results are truncated to fit neatly on a single line. Modules with extremely long names will fall on multiple lines.
