.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
This command shows data about a package and prints it to the stream
|
|
referenced by the \fBoutfd\fR config, which defaults to stdout\.
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
The "args" parameter is an ordered list that closely resembles the command\-line
|
|
usage\. The elements should be ordered such that the first element is
|
|
the package and version (package@version)\. The version is optional\. After that,
|
|
the rest of the parameters are fields with optional subfields ("field\.subfield")
|
|
which can be used to get only the information desired from the registry\.
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
The callback will be passed all of the data returned by the query\.
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
For example, to get the package registry entry for the \fBconnect\fR package,
|
|
you can do this:
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 4
|
|
.
|
|
.nf
|
|
npm\.commands\.view(["connect"], callback)
|
|
.
|
|
.fi
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 0
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
If no version is specified, "latest" is assumed\.
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
Field names can be specified after the package descriptor\.
|
|
For example, to show the dependencies of the \fBronn\fR package at version
|
|
0\.3\.5, you could do the following:
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 4
|
|
.
|
|
.nf
|
|
npm\.commands\.view(["ronn@0\.3\.5", "dependencies"], callback)
|
|
.
|

.fi

|

.IP "" 0

.P
|
|
You can view child field by separating them with a period\.
|
|
To view the git repository URL for the latest version of npm, you could
|
|
do this:
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 4
|
|
.
|
|
.nf
|
|
npm\.commands\.view(["npm", "repository\.url"], callback)
|
|
.
|
|
.fi
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 0
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
For fields that are arrays, requesting a non\-numeric field will return
|
|
all of the values from the objects in the list\. For example, to get all
|
|
the contributor names for the "express" project, you can do this:
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 4
|
|
.
|
|
.nf
|
|
npm\.commands\.view(["express", "contributors\.email"], callback)
|
|
.
|
|
.fi
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 0
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
You may also use numeric indices in square braces to specifically select
|
|
an item in an array field\. To just get the email address of the first
|
|
contributor in the list, you can do this:
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 4
|
|
.
|
|
.nf
|
|
npm\.commands\.view(["express", "contributors[0]\.email"], callback)
|
|
.
|
|
.fi
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 0
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
Multiple fields may be specified, and will be printed one after another\.
|
|
For exampls, to get all the contributor names and email addresses, you
|
|
can do this:
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 4
|
|
.
|
|
.nf
|
|
npm\.commands\.view(["express", "contributors\.name", "contributors\.email"], callback)
|
|

.fi

|
|
"Person" fields are shown as a string if they would be shown as an
|
|
object\. So, for example, this will show the list of npm contributors in
|
|
the shortened string format\. (See \fBnpm help json\fR for more on this\.)
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 4
|
|

If a version range is provided, then data will be printed for every
|
|
matching version of the package\. This will show which version of jsdom
|
|
was required by each matching version of yui3:
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 4
|
|
.
|
|
.nf
|
|
npm\.commands\.view(["yui3@\'>0\.5\.4\'", "dependencies\.jsdom"], callback)

|

.IP "" 0
|

.
|
|
.SH "OUTPUT"
|
|
If only a single string field for a single version is output, then it
|
|
will not be colorized or quoted, so as to enable piping the output to
|
|
another command\.
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
If the version range matches multiple versions, than each printed value
|
|
will be prefixed with the version it applies to\.
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
If multiple fields are requested, than each of them are prefixed with
|
|
the field name\.
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
Console output can be disabled by setting the \'silent\' parameter to true\.
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
The data returned will be an object in this formation:
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 4
|

.nf

|
{ <version>:
