npm-tag1
Tag a published version
Usage
npm tag
<name>@<version>
[<tag>]
Overview
Tags the specified version of the package with the specified tag, or the --tag config if not specified.
A tag can be used when installing packages as a reference to a version instead of using a specific version number:
-
npm install <name>@<tag>
When installing dependencies, a preferred tagged version may be specified:
-
npm install --tag <tag>
This also applies to npm dedupe.
Publishing a package always sets the "latest" tag to the published version.
