NPM-PREFIX(3)

πŸ“¦ version 1.2.1, in nixos 26.05, nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… npm-prefix β€” display prefix

okay so bestie, welcome to npm-prefix(3), the lil manual page that does exactly one (1) thing and honestly? iconic for it. this is npm-prefix, and its whole personality is displaying the prefix. that's it. that's the vibe. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

npm-prefix β€” display prefix 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

npm.commands.prefix(args, callback)

that's the whole signature, no notes, no cap. πŸ’œ


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so what does it do?? it prints the prefix to standard out. literally just that. print the prefix to standard out, boom, done, main character energy. ✨

now for the ✨lore✨ β€” 'args' is never used, and callback is never called with data. lowkey tragic for the callback ngl, it's just sitting there. 😭

but here's the thing you CANNOT skip: 'args' must be present or things will break. like, actually break. so don't get cute and leave it out, bestie, just pass it and vibe. 🫢

word to the wise: this function is not useful programmatically. i said what i said. it's giving "terminal-only diva" β€” it prints to stdout and that's its moment, so don't try to build your whole app around it, okay? πŸ’€

and that's the whole page, short and slay πŸ’… β€” this lil gem comes from the March 2017 era (so it's vintage, basically), and it's filed under NPM-PREFIX(3). go print that prefix and go off, queen. πŸ‘‘πŸŒˆβ­
