Confusingly, if you run man npm-shrinkwrap
you'll get the docs for npm shrinkwrap
, which makes it appear that the commands are the same, but npm-shrinkwrap --help
documents options like sync
which npm shrinkwrap
does not have.
The README has a motivation section documenting the things that npm-shrinkwrap
works around.
And documenting the rationale for making this an external package rather than an NPM contribution would be interesting too ;)
Our experience has been that after upgrading to npm
3, we no longer needed npm-shrinkwrap
and quit using it. npm shrinkwrap
works well enough and supported is integrated into npm install
, so commands like npm install --save
also update the shrinkwrap file.
It would be helpful if the docs contained a section to summarize the differences between "npm-shrinkwrap" and "npm shrinkwrap".
