Description

Change your profile information on the registry. Note that this command depends on the registry implementation, so third-party registries may not support this interface.

• npm profile get [<property>]: Display all of the properties of your profile, or one or more specific properties. It looks like:

name: example
email: [email protected] (verified)
two-factor auth: auth-and-writes
fullname: Example User
homepage:
freenode:
twitter:
github:
created: 2015-02-26T01:38:35.892Z
updated: 2017-10-02T21:29:45.922Z

• npm profile set <property> <value>: Set the value of a profile property. You can set the following properties this way: email, fullname, homepage, freenode, twitter, github

• npm profile set password: Change your password. This is interactive, you'll be prompted for your current password and a new password. You'll also be prompted for an OTP if you have two-factor authentication enabled.

• npm profile enable-2fa [auth-and-writes|auth-only]: Enables two-factor authentication. Defaults to auth-and-writes mode. Modes are:

  • auth-only: Require an OTP when logging in or making changes to your account's authentication. The OTP will be required on both the website and the command line.
  • auth-and-writes: Requires an OTP at all the times auth-only does, and also requires one when publishing a module, setting the latest dist-tag, or changing access via npm access and npm owner.

• npm profile disable-2fa: Disables two-factor authentication.

Details

Some of these commands may not be available on non npmjs.com registries.

Configuration

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

• Default: false
• Type: Boolean

Whether or not to output JSON data, rather than the normal output.

• In npm pkg set it enables parsing set values with JSON.parse() before saving them to your package.json.

Not supported by all npm commands.

parseable

• Default: false
• Type: Boolean

Output parseable results from commands that write to standard output. For npm search, this will be tab-separated table format.

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.
