npm如何知道从中安装模块的路径

Question

I am new to npm, using package.json to define the dependencies. I am just curious where is those dependencies installed from?

Answer 1

First, npm checks your local machine for packages installed globally, or using the -g flag.

ie: if you used npm install -g moduleName

You can run npm list -g to figure out where that is on your machine. Otherwise, npm goes to where you set the npm registry. By default this is npmjs .

If you want to see the default settings, run npm config list
