### Synopsis
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm deprecate <pkg>[@<version range>] <message>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.
|
|
|
|
### Description
|
|
|
|
This command will update the npm registry entry for a package, providing a
|
|
deprecation warning to all who attempt to install it.
|
|
|
|
It works on [version ranges](https://semver.npmjs.com/) as well as specific
|
|
versions, so you can do something like this:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm deprecate my-thing@"< 0.2.3" "critical bug fixed in v0.2.3"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
SemVer ranges passed to this command are interpreted such that they *do*
|
|
include prerelease versions. For example:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm deprecate my-thing@1.x "1.x is no longer supported"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In this case, a version `my-thing@1.0.0-beta.0` will also be deprecated.
|
|
|
|
You must be the package owner to deprecate something. See the `owner` and
|
|
`adduser` help topics.
|
|
|
|
To un-deprecate a package, specify an empty string (`""`) for the `message`
|
|
argument. Note that you must use double quotes with no space between them to
|
|
format an empty string.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
<!-- AUTOGENERATED CONFIG DESCRIPTIONS START -->
|
|
<!-- automatically generated, do not edit manually -->
|
|
<!-- see lib/utils/config/definitions.js -->
|
|
#### `registry`
|
|
|
|
* Default: "https://registry.npmjs.org/"
|
|
* Type: URL
|
|
|
|
The base URL of the npm registry.

<!-- automatically generated, do not edit manually -->
|
|
<!-- see lib/utils/config/definitions.js -->
|
|
|
|
#### `otp`
|
|
|
|
* Default: null
|
|
* Type: null or String
|
|
|
|
This is a one-time password from a two-factor authenticator. It's needed
|
|
when publishing or changing package permissions with `npm access`.
|
|
|
|
If not set, and a registry response fails with a challenge for a one-time
|
|
password, npm will prompt on the command line for one.
