<h1><a href="../cli/npm-rm.html">npm-rm</a></h1> <p>Remove a package</p>
|
|
<h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>
|
|
<pre><code>npm uninstall [@<scope>/]<package> [--save|--save-dev|--save-optional]
|
|
npm rm (with any of the previous argument usage)
|
|
</code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
|
|
<p>This uninstalls a package, completely removing everything npm installed
|
|
on its behalf.</p>
|
|
<p>Example:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>npm uninstall sax
|
|
</code></pre><p>In global mode (ie, with <code>-g</code> or <code>--global</code> appended to the command),
|
|
it uninstalls the current package context as a global package.</p>
|
|
<p><code>npm uninstall</code> takes 3 exclusive, optional flags which save or update
|
|
the package version in your main package.json:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><p><code>--save</code>: Package will be removed from your <code>dependencies</code>.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><p><code>--save-dev</code>: Package will be removed from your <code>devDependencies</code>.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><p><code>--save-optional</code>: Package will be removed from your <code>optionalDependencies</code>.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Scope is optional and follows the usual rules for <code><a href="../misc/npm-scope.html">npm-scope(7)</a></code>.</p>
|
|
<p>Examples:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>npm uninstall sax --save
|
|
npm uninstall @myorg/privatepackage --save
|
|
npm uninstall node-tap --save-dev
|
|
npm uninstall dtrace-provider --save-optional
