| <h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2> |
| <pre><code>npm init [-f|--force|-y|--yes] |
| </code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2> |
| <p>This will ask you a bunch of questions, and then write a package.json for you.</p> |
| <p>It attempts to make reasonable guesses about what you want things to be set to, |
| and then writes a package.json file with the options you've selected.</p> |
| <p>If you already have a package.json file, it'll read that first, and default to |
| the options in there.</p> |
| <p>It is strictly additive, so it does not delete options from your package.json |
| without a really good reason to do so.</p> |
| <p>If you invoke it with <code>-f</code>, <code>--force</code>, <code>-y</code>, or <code>--yes</code>, it will use only |
| defaults and not prompt you for any options.</p> |
| <h2 id="configuration">CONFIGURATION</h2> |
| <h3 id="scope">scope</h3> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Default: none</li> |
| <li>Type: String</li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>The scope under which the new module should be created.</p> |
