There's also these extra commands to help you manage your favorite packages:

You can "star" a package using npm help star

You can see all your starred packages using npm help stars

registry

  • Default: "https://registry.npmjs.org/"
  • Type: URL

The base URL of the npm registry.

unicode

  • Default: false on windows, true on mac/unix systems with a unicode locale, as defined by the LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, or LANG environment variables.
  • Type: Boolean

When set to true, npm uses unicode characters in the tree output. When false, it uses ascii characters instead of unicode glyphs.

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.
