<h2 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h2>

<pre><code>npm.commands.search(searchTerms, [silent,] [staleness,] callback)</code></pre>

<h2 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h2>

<p>Search the registry for packages matching the search terms. The available parameters are:</p>

<ul><li>searchTerms:
Array of search terms. These terms are case-insensitive.</li><li>silent:
If true, npm will not log anything to the console.</li><li>staleness:
This is the threshold for stale packages. &quot;Fresh&quot; packages are not refreshed
from the registry. This value is measured in seconds.</li><li><p>callback:
Returns an object where each key is the name of a package, and the value
is information about that package along with a &#39;words&#39; property, which is
a space-delimited string of all of the interesting words in that package.
The only properties included are those that are searched, which generally include:</p><ul><li>name</li><li>description</li><li>maintainers</li><li>url</li><li>keywords</li></ul></li></ul>

<p>A search on the registry excludes any result that does not match all of the
search terms. It also removes any items from the results that contain an
excluded term (the &quot;searchexclude&quot; config). The search is case insensitive
and doesn&#39;t try to read your mind (it doesn&#39;t do any verb tense matching or the
like).</p>
