  176. <pre><code class="language-bash">npm uninstall [&lt;@scope&gt;/]&lt;pkg&gt;...
  177. aliases: unlink, remove, rm, r, un
  178. </code></pre>
  179. <h3 id="description">Description</h3>
  180. <p>This uninstalls a package, completely removing everything npm installed on its behalf.</p>
  181. <p>It also removes the package from the <code>dependencies</code>, <code>devDependencies</code>,
  182. <code>optionalDependencies</code>, and <code>peerDependencies</code> objects in your <code>package.json</code>.</p>
  183. <p>Further, if you have an <code>npm-shrinkwrap.json</code> or <code>package-lock.json</code>, npm will update those files as well.</p>
  184. <p><code>--no-save</code> will tell npm not to remove the package from your <code>package.json</code>, <code>npm-shrinkwrap.json</code>, or <code>package-lock.json</code> files.</p>
  185. <p><code>--save</code> or <code>-S</code> will tell npm to remove the package from your <code>package.json</code>, <code>npm-shrinkwrap.json</code>, and <code>package-lock.json</code> files.
  186. This is the default, but you may need to use this if you have for instance <code>save=false</code> in your <code>npmrc</code> file</p>
  187. <p>In global mode (ie, with <code>-g</code> or <code>--global</code> appended to the command), it uninstalls the current package context as a global package.
  188. <code>--no-save</code> is ignored in this case.</p>
  189. <p>Scope is optional and follows the usual rules for <a href="../using-npm/scope.html"><code>scope</code></a>.</p>
  190. <h3 id="examples">Examples</h3>
  191. <pre><code class="language-bash">npm uninstall sax
  192. </code></pre>
  193. <p><code>sax</code> will no longer be in your <code>package.json</code>, <code>npm-shrinkwrap.json</code>, or <code>package-lock.json</code> files.</p>
  194. <pre><code class="language-bash">npm uninstall lodash --no-save
  195. </code></pre>
  196. <p><code>lodash</code> will not be removed from your <code>package.json</code>,
  197. <code>npm-shrinkwrap.json</code>, or <code>package-lock.json</code> files.</p>
  198. <h3 id="configuration">Configuration</h3>
  199. <h4 id="save"><code>save</code></h4>
  200. <ul>
  201. <li>Default: <code>true</code> unless when using <code>npm update</code> where it defaults to <code>false</code></li>
  202. <li>Type: Boolean</li>
  203. </ul>
  204. <p>Save installed packages to a <code>package.json</code> file as dependencies.</p>
  205. <p>When used with the <code>npm rm</code> command, removes the dependency from
  206. <code>package.json</code>.</p>
  207. <p>Will also prevent writing to <code>package-lock.json</code> if set to <code>false</code>.</p>
  208. <h4 id="global"><code>global</code></h4>
  209. <ul>
  210. <li>Default: false</li>
  211. <li>Type: Boolean</li>
  212. </ul>
  213. <p>Operates in "global" mode, so that packages are installed into the <code>prefix</code>
  214. folder instead of the current working directory. See
  215. <a href="../configuring-npm/folders.html">folders</a> for more on the differences in behavior.</p>
  216. <ul>
  217. <li>packages are installed into the <code>{prefix}/lib/node_modules</code> folder, instead
  218. of the current working directory.</li>
  219. <li>bin files are linked to <code>{prefix}/bin</code></li>
  220. <li>man pages are linked to <code>{prefix}/share/man</code></li>
  221. </ul>
  222. <h4 id="workspace"><code>workspace</code></h4>
  223. <ul>
  224. <li>Default:</li>
  225. <li>Type: String (can be set multiple times)</li>
  226. </ul>
  227. <p>Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces of the
  228. current project while filtering by running only the workspaces defined by
  229. this configuration option.</p>
  230. <p>Valid values for the <code>workspace</code> config are either:</p>
  231. <ul>
  232. <li>Workspace names</li>
  233. <li>Path to a workspace directory</li>
  234. <li>Path to a parent workspace directory (will result in selecting all
  235. workspaces within that folder)</li>
  236. </ul>
  237. <p>When set for the <code>npm init</code> command, this may be set to the folder of a
  238. workspace which does not yet exist, to create the folder and set it up as a
  239. brand new workspace within the project.</p>
  240. <p>This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.</p>
  241. <h4 id="workspaces"><code>workspaces</code></h4>
  242. <ul>
  243. <li>Default: null</li>
  244. <li>Type: null or Boolean</li>
  245. </ul>
  246. <p>Set to true to run the command in the context of <strong>all</strong> configured
  247. workspaces.</p>
  248. <p>Explicitly setting this to false will cause commands like <code>install</code> to
  249. ignore workspaces altogether. When not set explicitly:</p>
  250. <ul>
  251. <li>Commands that operate on the <code>node_modules</code> tree (install, update, etc.)
  252. will link workspaces into the <code>node_modules</code> folder. - Commands that do
  253. other things (test, exec, publish, etc.) will operate on the root project,
  254. <em>unless</em> one or more workspaces are specified in the <code>workspace</code> config.</li>
  255. </ul>
  256. <p>This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.</p>
  257. <h4 id="include-workspace-root"><code>include-workspace-root</code></h4>
  258. <ul>
  259. <li>Default: false</li>
  260. <li>Type: Boolean</li>
  261. </ul>
  262. <p>Include the workspace root when workspaces are enabled for a command.</p>
  263. <p>When false, specifying individual workspaces via the <code>workspace</code> config, or
  264. all workspaces via the <code>workspaces</code> flag, will cause npm to operate only on
  265. the specified workspaces, and not on the root project.</p>
  266. <p>This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.</p>
  267. <h4 id="install-links"><code>install-links</code></h4>
  268. <ul>
  269. <li>Default: false</li>
  270. <li>Type: Boolean</li>
  271. </ul>
  272. <p>When set file: protocol dependencies will be packed and installed as regular
  273. dependencies instead of creating a symlink. This option has no effect on
  274. workspaces.</p>
