NPM-CONFIG(3)

NAME
npm-config - Manage the npm configuration files

SYNOPSIS

    npm.commands.config(args, callback)
    var val = npm.config.get(key)
    npm.config.set(key, val)

DESCRIPTION

This function acts much the same way as the command-line version. The first element in the array tells config what to do. Possible values are:

    •   set
          Sets a config parameter. The second element in args is interpreted as the
          key, and the third element is interpreted as the value.

    •   get
          Gets the value of a config parameter. The second element in args is the
          key to get the value of.

    •   delete (rm or del)
          Deletes a parameter from the config. The second element in args is the
          key to delete.

    •   list (ls)
          Show all configs that aren't secret. No parameters necessary.

    •   edit:
          Opens the config file in the default editor. This command isn't very useful
          programmatically, but it is made available.

To programmatically access npm configuration settings, or set them for the duration of a program, use the npm.config.set and npm.config.get functions instead.
