<h1><a href="../cli/npm-init.html">npm-init</a></h1> <p>Interactively create a package.json file</p>
<h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>
<pre><code>npm init [-f|--force|-y|--yes]
</code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p>This will ask you a bunch of questions, and then write a package.json for you.</p>
<p>It attempts to make reasonable guesses about what you want things to be set to,
and then writes a package.json file with the options you&#39;ve selected.</p>
<p>If you already have a package.json file, it&#39;ll read that first, and default to
the options in there.</p>
<p>It is strictly additive, so it does not delete options from your package.json
without a really good reason to do so.</p>
<p>If you invoke it with <code>-f</code>, <code>--force</code>, <code>-y</code>, or <code>--yes</code>, it will use only
defaults and not prompt you for any options.</p>
<h2 id="configuration">CONFIGURATION</h2>
<h3 id="scope">scope</h3>
<ul>
<li>Default: none</li>
<li>Type: String</li>
</ul>
<p>The scope under which the new module should be created.</p>
