<div id="_content"><h3 id="description">Description</h3>
<p>npm gets its config settings from the command line, environment variables,
and <code>npmrc</code> files.</p>
<p>The <code>npm config</code> command can be used to update and edit the contents of the
user and global npmrc files.</p>
<p>For a list of available configuration options, see
<a href="../using-npm/config.html">config</a>.</p>
<h3 id="files">Files</h3>
<p>The four relevant files are:</p>
<ul>
<li>per-project config file (/path/to/my/project/.npmrc)</li>
<li>per-user config file (~/.npmrc)</li>
<li>global config file ($PREFIX/etc/npmrc)</li>
<li>npm builtin config file (/path/to/npm/npmrc)</li>
</ul>
<p>All npm config files are an ini-formatted list of <code>key = value</code> parameters.
Environment variables can be replaced using <code>${VARIABLE_NAME}</code>. For
example:</p>
<pre lang="bash"><code>prefix = ${HOME}/.npm-packages
</code></pre>
<p>Each of these files is loaded, and config options are resolved in priority
order. For example, a setting in the userconfig file would override the
setting in the globalconfig file.</p>
<p>Array values are specified by adding "[]" after the key name. For example:</p>
<pre lang="bash"><code>key[] = "first value"
key[] = "second value"
</code></pre>
<h4 id="comments">Comments</h4>
<p>Lines in <code>.npmrc</code> files are interpreted as comments when they begin with a
<code>;</code> or <code>#</code> character. <code>.npmrc</code> files are parsed by
<a href="https://github.com/npm/ini">npm/ini</a>, which specifies this comment syntax.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<pre lang="bash"><code># last modified: 01 Jan 2016
; Set a new registry for a scoped package
@myscope:registry=https://mycustomregistry.example.org
</code></pre>
<h4 id="per-project-config-file">Per-project config file</h4>
<p>When working locally in a project, a <code>.npmrc</code> file in the root of the
project (ie, a sibling of <code>node_modules</code> and <code>package.json</code>) will set
config values specific to this project.</p>
<p>Note that this only applies to the root of the project that you're running
npm in. It has no effect when your module is published. For example, you
can't publish a module that forces itself to install globally, or in a
different location.</p>
<p>Additionally, this file is not read in global mode, such as when running
<code>npm install -g</code>.</p>
<h4 id="per-user-config-file">Per-user config file</h4>
<p><code>$HOME/.npmrc</code> (or the <code>userconfig</code> param, if set in the environment or on
the command line)</p>
<h4 id="global-config-file">Global config file</h4>
<p><code>$PREFIX/etc/npmrc</code> (or the <code>globalconfig</code> param, if set above): This file
is an ini-file formatted list of <code>key = value</code> parameters. Environment
variables can be replaced as above.</p>
<h4 id="built-in-config-file">Built-in config file</h4>
<p><code>path/to/npm/itself/npmrc</code></p>
<p>This is an unchangeable "builtin" configuration file that npm keeps
consistent across updates. Set fields in here using the <code>./configure</code>
script that comes with npm. This is primarily for distribution maintainers
to override default configs in a standard and consistent manner.</p>
