NPM Vet is a simple CLI tool to help vet your npm package versions. NPM Vet can be used locally, or as a CI build-step to prevent builds passing with mismatched package versions. To read more about NPM Vet, visit the Hark website.

$ npm install npmvet -g

Usage: npmvet [options]

Options:

  -h, --help                 output usage information
  -V, --version              output the version number
  -p, --package <package>    package.json file location (Default: .)
  -m, --modules <modules>    node_modules folder location (Default: .)
  -r, --renderer <renderer>  Renderer to use (Default: inlinetable)

Renderers are used to dictate how to output the data NPM Vet collects. The default is inlinetable.

$ npmvet -r inlinetable

The default renderer, inlinetable will print a table inline with your current process. You can use this locally to visualise package differences.

$ npmvet -r ci

To prevent your CI builds passing with mismatched package versions, use the CI renderer. If any package version mismatches are found, the build will fail:

Or if there are no mismatching package versions, your build will continue (and hopefully pass!):

The blessed renderer will render a table inside a screen, that has be exited by the user to escape.

$ npmvet -r blessed
