<pre lang="bash"><code>npm dist-tag add <pkg>@<version> [<tag>]
npm dist-tag rm <pkg> <tag>
npm dist-tag ls [<pkg>]
aliases: dist-tags
</code></pre>
<h3 id="description">Description</h3>
<p>Add, remove, and enumerate distribution tags on a package:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>add: Tags the specified version of the package with the specified tag, or
the <code>--tag</code> config if not specified. If you have two-factor
authentication on auth-and-writes then you’ll need to include a one-time
password on the command line with <code>--otp <one-time password></code>, or at the
OTP prompt.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>rm: Clear a tag that is no longer in use from the package. If you have
two-factor authentication on auth-and-writes then you’ll need to include
a one-time password on the command line with <code>--otp <one-time password></code>,
or at the OTP prompt.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>ls: Show all of the dist-tags for a package, defaulting to the package in
the current prefix. This is the default action if none is specified.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>A tag can be used when installing packages as a reference to a version instead
of using a specific version number:</p>
<pre lang="bash"><code>npm install <name>@<tag>
</code></pre>
<p>When installing dependencies, a preferred tagged version may be specified:</p>
<pre lang="bash"><code>npm install --tag <tag>
</code></pre>
<p>(This also applies to any other commands that resolve and install
dependencies, such as <code>npm dedupe</code>, <code>npm update</code>, and <code>npm audit fix</code>.)</p>
<p>Publishing a package sets the <code>latest</code> tag to the published version unless the
<code>--tag</code> option is used. For example, <code>npm publish --tag=beta</code>.</p>
<p>By default, <code>npm install <pkg></code> (without any <code>@<version></code> or <code>@<tag></code>
specifier) installs the <code>latest</code> tag.</p>
<h3 id="purpose">Purpose</h3>
<p>Tags can be used to provide an alias instead of version numbers.</p>
<p>For example, a project might choose to have multiple streams of development
and use a different tag for each stream, e.g., <code>stable</code>, <code>beta</code>, <code>dev</code>,
<code>canary</code>.</p>
<p>By default, the <code>latest</code> tag is used by npm to identify the current version
of a package, and <code>npm install <pkg></code> (without any <code>@<version></code> or <code>@<tag></code>
specifier) installs the <code>latest</code> tag. Typically, projects only use the
<code>latest</code> tag for stable release versions, and use other tags for unstable
versions such as prereleases.</p>
<p>The <code>next</code> tag is used by some projects to identify the upcoming version.</p>
<p>Other than <code>latest</code>, no tag has any special significance to npm itself.</p>
<h3 id="caveats">Caveats</h3>
<p>This command used to be known as <code>npm tag</code>, which only created new tags,
and so had a different syntax.</p>
<p>Tags must share a namespace with version numbers, because they are
specified in the same slot: <code>npm install <pkg>@<version></code> vs
<code>npm install <pkg>@<tag></code>.</p>
<p>Tags that can be interpreted as valid semver ranges will be rejected. For
example, <code>v1.4</code> cannot be used as a tag, because it is interpreted by
semver as <code>>=1.4.0 <1.5.0</code>. See <a href="https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/6082">https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/6082</a>.</p>
<p>The simplest way to avoid semver problems with tags is to use tags that do
not begin with a number or the letter <code>v</code>.</p>
<h3 id="configuration">Configuration</h3>
<!-- raw HTML omitted -->
<!-- raw HTML omitted -->
<h4 id="workspace"><code>workspace</code></h4>
<ul>
<li>Default:</li>
<li>Type: String (can be set multiple times)</li>
</ul>
<p>Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces of the
current project while filtering by running only the workspaces defined by
this configuration option.</p>
<p>Valid values for the <code>workspace</code> config are either:</p>
<ul>
<li>Workspace names</li>
<li>Path to a workspace directory</li>
<li>Path to a parent workspace directory (will result to selecting all of the
nested workspaces)</li>
</ul>
<p>When set for the <code>npm init</code> command, this may be set to the folder of a
workspace which does not yet exist, to create the folder and set it up as a
brand new workspace within the project.</p>
<p>This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.</p>
<h4 id="workspaces"><code>workspaces</code></h4>
<ul>
<li>Default: false</li>
<li>Type: Boolean</li>
</ul>
<p>Enable running a command in the context of <strong>all</strong> the configured
workspaces.</p>
<p>This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.</p>
