node.jsNpmUbuntu 14.04Npm Clinode.js Problem Overview
I'm working on ubuntu 14.04, Is there any way to print all global modules (installed using npm) to the command line. How can I do this?
node.js Solutions
Solution 1 - node.js
The below command will list all your globally installed modules on Linux, Mac, and Windows.
npm ls -g --depth 0
Solution 2 - node.js
To list all globally installed modules run:
npm ls -g --depth 0
or yarn
yarn global ls --depth 0
Extras:
To get a short module description run:
npm ll -g --depth 0
To see the path of where the global modules are installed run:
npm ls -gp --depth 0
Solution 3 - node.js
My preferred method is to use the npmlist package, which can be installed using npm i -g npmlist. Then you just use the npmlist command to get a formatted and color listing with versions of all global packages.
$ npmlist
Installed npm packages: (global)
@vue/cli.................[3.5.1]
browser-sync............[2.26.3]
degit....................[2.1.3]
eslint..................[5.15.3]
eslint-plugin-vue........[5.2.2]
jsonlint.................[1.6.3]
npm......................[6.9.0]
npmlist..................[3.1.2]
prettier................[1.16.4]
serverless..............[1.39.1]
Solution 4 - node.js
Much faster command than the selected answer, if you care only about listing package name and not the package version:
ls -l $(npm root -g)
Solution 5 - node.js
To see the list of all globally installed modules type the following command:
npm ls -g --depth 0
this will give you the list of all the installed modules along with their versions. Even unmet dependencies if any, will also be listed.
