NPM-EXPLORE(1)              General Commands Manual              NPM-EXPLORE(1)

NAME
       npm-explore

Synopsis
       <!-- AUTOGENERATED USAGE DESCRIPTIONS -->

       Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.

Description
       Spawn a subshell in the directory of the installed package specified.

       If a command is specified, then it is run in the subshell, which then
       immediately terminates.

       This is particularly handy in the case of git submodules in the
       node_modules folder:
         npm explore some-dependency -- git pull origin master

       Note that the package is not automatically rebuilt afterwards, so be
       sure to use npm rebuild <pkg> if you make any changes.

Configuration
