NAME¶

npm-unpublish

Synopsis¶

<!-- AUTOGENERATED USAGE DESCRIPTIONS -->

To learn more about how the npm registry treats unpublish, see our unpublish policies.

Warning¶

Consider using the deprecate command instead, if your intent is to encourage users to upgrade, or if you no longer want to maintain a package.

Description¶

This removes a package version from the registry, deleting its entry and removing the tarball.

The npm registry will return an error if you are not logged in.

If you do not specify a package name at all, the name and version to be unpublished will be pulled from the project in the current directory.

If you specify a package name but do not specify a version or if you remove all of a package's versions then the registry will remove the root package entry entirely.

Even if you unpublish a package version, that specific name and version combination can never be reused.
In order to publish the package again, you must use a new version number.
If you unpublish the entire package, you may not publish any new versions of that package until 24 hours have passed.
