When you read the npm help dist-tag you see npm dist-tag add <pkg>@<version> [<tag>] The [] around means it's optional (it will tag latest) Try instead

npm dist-tag add npm-codecamp@1.0.1 npm-nodecamp

I also tried adding via the following command and got the same error as the original poster. Using sudo as I haven't fixed the permission problem with npm.

sudo npm dist-tag add how-to-npm-tutorial@1.0.1 how-to-npm-tutorial

When using just "npm dist-tag add how-to-tutorial-npm@1.0.1 how-to-npm-tutorial", it gives me a message about just Usage: npm like it doesn't recognize the command.

What am I missing?

Just read https://github.com/sindresorhus/guides/blob/master/npm-global-without-sudo.md if you have a global Node otherwise, just use NVM using this recipe

could you give some advice? I have tried all the methods,including the above two

69 is the same issue. I'm not sure exactly what's wrong with it. But it's the both exercises on Dist Tag and hence Dist Tag Removal that can't be finished, and need to be updated.

[BrunoWilkinson]

Hello everyone,

I see this issue is still open, I manage to pass the two dist-tag exercises.

So first you want to got to your package.json file, then copy the name value (the name of module). For example:

{
  "name": "@user/nameOfModule", 
  "version": "1.0.1",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "node test.js"
  },

copy the line called name (it won't be same and only the value! without "name": )

After you copied the correct name to add the the tag too, use this command:

npm dist-tag add <copied named from package.json>@1.0.1 beta

For the second exercise of dist-tag remove use this commands:

npm dist-tag rm <copied named from package.json>@1.0.1 beta

And to point the "Latest" tag to a different version use this command:

npm dist-tag add <copied named from package.json>@1.0.0

I hope this helps :)

Thanks all for following up on this issue! I think the solution has been already posted on the above like @BrunoWilkinson posted. I will close this as resolved, and please do not hesitate to open it again if you still can't fix it!
