<h1><a href="../cli/npm-publish.html">npm-publish</a></h1> <p>Publish a package</p>
<h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>
<pre><code>npm publish [<tarball>|<folder>] [--tag <tag>] [--access <public|restricted>]
Publishes '.' if no argument supplied
Sets tag 'latest' if no --tag specified
</code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p>Publishes a package to the registry so that it can be installed by name. All
files in the package directory are included if no local <code>.gitignore</code> or
<code>.npmignore</code> file exists. If both files exist and a file is ignored by
<code>.gitignore</code> but not by <code>.npmignore</code> then it will be included. See
<code><a href="../misc/npm-developers.html">npm-developers(7)</a></code> for full details on what's included in the published
package, as well as details on how the package is built.</p>
<p>By default npm will publish to the public registry. This can be overridden by
specifying a different default registry or using a <code><a href="../misc/npm-scope.html">npm-scope(7)</a></code> in the name
(see <code><a href="../files/package.json.html">package.json(5)</a></code>).</p>
<ul>
<li><p><code><folder></code>:
A folder containing a package.json file</p>
</li>
<li><p><code><tarball></code>:
A url or file path to a gzipped tar archive containing a single folder
with a package.json file inside.</p>
</li>
<li><p><code>[--tag <tag>]</code>
Registers the published package with the given tag, such that <code>npm install
<name>@<tag></code> will install this version. By default, <code>npm publish</code> updates
and <code>npm install</code> installs the <code>latest</code> tag. See <code><a href="../cli/npm-dist-tag.html">npm-dist-tag(1)</a></code> for
details about tags.</p>
</li>
<li><p><code>[--access <public|restricted>]</code>
Tells the registry whether this package should be published as public or
restricted. Only applies to scoped packages, which default to <code>restricted</code>.
If you don't have a paid account, you must publish with <code>--access public</code>
to publish scoped packages.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Fails if the package name and version combination already exists in
the specified registry.</p>
<p>Once a package is published with a given name and version, that
specific name and version combination can never be used again, even if
it is removed with <a href="../cli/npm-unpublish.html">npm-unpublish(1)</a>.</p>
