npm-help-search(3) -- Search the help pages
|
|
===========================================
|
|
|
|
## SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
npm.commands.helpSearch(args, [silent,] callback)
|
|
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This command is rarely useful, but it exists in the rare case that it is.
|
|
|
|
This command takes an array of search terms and returns the help pages that
|
|
match in order of best match.
|
|
|
|
If there is only one match, then npm displays that help section. If there
|
|
are multiple results, the results are printed to the screen formatted and the
|
|
array of results is returned. Each result is an object with these properties:
|
|
|
|
* hits:
|
|
A map of args to number of hits on that arg. For example, {"npm": 3}
|
|
* found:
|
|
Total number of unique args that matched.
|
|
* totalHits:
|
|
Total number of hits.
|
|
* lines:
|
|
An array of all matching lines (and some adjacent lines).
|
|
* file:
|
|
Name of the file that matched
|
|
|
|
The silent parameter is not neccessary not used, but it may in the future.
