npm-shrinkwrap.json(5) -- A publishable lockfile ===================================================== ## DESCRIPTION `npm-shrinkwrap.json` is a file created by npm-shrinkwrap(1). It is identical to `package-lock.json`, with one major caveat: Unlike `package-lock.json`, `npm-shrinkwrap.json` may be included when publishing a package. The recommended use-case for `npm-shrinkwrap.json` is applications deployed through the publishing process on the registry: for example, daemons and command-line tools intended as global installs or `devDependencies`. It's strongly discouraged for library authors to publish this file, since that would prevent end users from having control over transitive dependency updates. Additionally, if both `package-lock.json` and `npm-shrinkwrap.json` are present in a package root, `package-lock.json` will be ignored in favor of this file. For full details and description of the `npm-shrinkwrap.json` file format, refer to the manual page for package-lock.json(5). ## SEE ALSO * npm-shrinkwrap(1) * package-lock.json(5) * package.json(5) * npm-install(1)
