what is the best way to get list of NPM packages from GitHub Repositories

Question

I would like to list all NPM packages available in a repository on GitHub and use code parsing to get just needed information of the packages using PowerShell.

How do I identify these packages?. if they are in packages.json file, there seems to be many of the "packages.json" file name in some repos.

Answer 1

You can see multiple package.json files are part of nested dependencies, as seen here .

If you somehow had to see those dependencies (direct and indirect) as one package.json , that is what json-merge or package-merge are for.
