title: npm-config
section: 1
description: Manage the npm configuration files
---
### Synopsis
```bash
npm config set <key> <value> [-g|--global]
npm config get <key>
npm config delete <key>
npm config list [-l] [--json]
npm config edit
npm get <key>
npm set <key> <value> [-g|--global]
aliases: c
```
### Description
npm gets its config settings from the command line, environment
variables, `npmrc` files, and in some cases, the `package.json` file.
See [npmrc](/configuring-npm/npmrc) for more information about the npmrc
files.
See [config(7)](/using-npm/config) for a more thorough explanation of the
mechanisms involved, and a full list of config options available.
The `npm config` command can be used to update and edit the contents
of the user and global npmrc files.
### Sub-commands
Config supports the following sub-commands:
#### set
```bash
npm config set key value
```
Sets the config key to the value.
If value is omitted, then it sets it to "true".
#### get
```bash
npm config get key
```
Echo the config value to stdout.
#### list
```bash
npm config list
```
Show all the config settings. Use `-l` to also show defaults. Use `--json`
to show the settings in json format.
#### delete
```bash
npm config delete key
```
Deletes the key from all configuration files.
#### edit
```bash
npm config edit
```
Opens the config file in an editor. Use the `--global` flag to edit the
global config.
