### Synopsis
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm help-search <text>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.
|
|
|
|
### Description
|
|
|
|
This command will search the npm markdown documentation files for the terms
|
|
provided, and then list the results, sorted by relevance.
|
|
|
|
If only one result is found, then it will show that help topic.
|
|
|
|
If the argument to `npm help` is not a known help topic, then it will call
|
|
`help-search`. It is rarely if ever necessary to call this command
|
|
directly.
|
|
|
|
