The `package.json` file is still -required if you want to use `npm install`. - -By default, `npm install` recursively installs the target's -dependencies (as specified in `package.json`), choosing the latest -available version that satisfies the dependency's semver pattern. In -some situations, particularly when shipping software where each change -is tightly managed, it's desirable to fully specify each version of -each dependency recursively so that subsequent builds and deploys do -not inadvertently pick up newer versions of a dependency that satisfy -the semver pattern. Specifying specific semver patterns in each -dependency's `package.json` would facilitate this, but that's not always -possible or desirable, as when another author owns the npm package. -It's also possible to check dependencies directly into source control, -but that may be undesirable for other reasons. - -As an example, consider package A: - - { - "name": "A", - "version": "0.1.0", - "dependencies": { - "B": "<0.1.0" - } - } - -package B: - - { - "name": "B", - "version": "0.0.1", - "dependencies": { - "C": "<0.1.0" - } - } - -and package C: - - { - "name": "C", - "version": "0.0.1" - } - -If these are the only versions of A, B, and C available in the -registry, then a normal `npm install A` will install: - - A@0.1.0 - `-- B@0.0.1 - `-- C@0.0.1 - -However, if B@0.0.2 is published, then a fresh `npm install A` will -install: - - A@0.1.0 - `-- B@0.0.2 - `-- C@0.0.1 - -assuming the new version did not modify B's dependencies. Of course, -the new version of B could include a new version of C and any number -of new dependencies. If such changes are undesirable, the author of A -could specify a dependency on B@0.0.1. However, if A's author and B's -author are not the same person, there's no way for A's author to say -that he or she does not want to pull in newly published versions of C -when B hasn't changed at all. - -In this case, A's author can run - - npm shrinkwrap - -This generates `npm-shrinkwrap.json`, which will look something like this: - - { - "name": "A", - "version": "0.1.0", - "dependencies": { - "B": { - "version": "0.0.1", - "from": "B@^0.0.1", - "resolved": "https://registry.npmjs.org/B/-/B-0.0.1.tgz", - "dependencies": { - "C": { - "version": "0.0.1", - "from": "org/C#v0.0.1", - "resolved": "git://github.com/org/C.git#5c380ae319fc4efe9e7f2d9c78b0faa588fd99b4" - } - } - } - } - } - -The shrinkwrap command has locked down the dependencies based on what's -currently installed in `node_modules`. The installation behavior is changed to: - -1. The module tree described by the shrinkwrap is reproduced. This means -reproducing the structure described in the file, using the specific files -referenced in "resolved" if available, falling back to normal package -resolution using "version" if one isn't. - -2. The tree is walked and any missing dependencies are installed in the usual fashion. - -If `preshrinkwrap`, `shrinkwrap` or `postshrinkwrap` are in the `scripts` property of the -`package.json`, they will be executed by running `npm shrinkwrap`. -`preshrinkwrap` and `shrinkwrap` are executed before the shrinkwrap, `postshrinkwrap` is -executed afterwards. For example to run some postprocessing on the generated file: - - "scripts": { "postshrinkwrap": "node fix-shrinkwrap.js" } - - -### Using shrinkwrapped packages - -Using a shrinkwrapped package is no different than using any other -package: you can `npm install` it by hand, or add a dependency to your -`package.json` file and `npm install` it. - -### Building shrinkwrapped packages - -To shrinkwrap an existing package: - -1. Run `npm install` in the package root to install the current - versions of all dependencies. -2. Validate that the package works as expected with these versions. -3. Run `npm shrinkwrap`, add `npm-shrinkwrap.json` to git, and publish - your package. - -To add or update a dependency in a shrinkwrapped package: - -1. Run `npm install` in the package root to install the current - versions of all dependencies. -2. Add or update dependencies. `npm install --save` or `npm install --save-dev` - each new or updated package individually to update the `package.json` and - the shrinkwrap. Note that they must be explicitly named in order to be - installed: running `npm install` with no arguments will merely reproduce - the existing shrinkwrap. -3. Validate that the package works as expected with the new - dependencies. -4. Commit the new `npm-shrinkwrap.json`, and publish your package. - -You can use npm-outdated(1) to view dependencies with newer versions -available. - -### Other Notes - -A shrinkwrap file must be consistent with the package's `package.json` -file. `npm shrinkwrap` will fail if required dependencies are not -already installed, since that would result in a shrinkwrap that -wouldn't actually work. Similarly, the command will fail if there are -extraneous packages (not referenced by `package.json`), since that would -indicate that `package.json` is not correct. - -Starting with npm v4.0.1, `devDependencies` are included when you run -`npm shrinkwrap` and follow the usual rules as to when they're installed. -As of npm v3.10.8, if you run `npm install --only=production` or -`npm install --production` with a shrinkwrap including your development -dependencies they won't be installed. Similarly, if the environment -variable `NODE_ENV` is `production` then they won't be installed. If you -need compatibility with versions of npm prior to v3.10.8 or otherwise -don't want them in your shrinkwrap you can exclude development -dependencies with: -`npm shrinkwrap --only=prod` or `npm shrinkwrap --production`. - -If shrinkwrapped package A depends on shrinkwrapped package B, B's -shrinkwrap will not be used as part of the installation of A. However, -because A's shrinkwrap is constructed from a valid installation of B -and recursively specifies all dependencies, the contents of B's -shrinkwrap will implicitly be included in A's shrinkwrap. - -### Caveats - -If you wish to lock down the specific bytes included in a package, for -example to have 100% confidence in being able to reproduce a -deployment or build, then you ought to check your dependencies into -source control, or pursue some other mechanism that can verify -contents rather than versions. +This command repurposes `package-lock.json` into a publishable +`npm-shrinkwrap.json` or simply creates a new one.
