<h1><a href="../cli/npm-pack.html">npm-pack</a></h1> <p>Create a tarball from a package</p>
<h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>
<pre><code>npm pack [&lt;pkg&gt; [&lt;pkg&gt; ...]]
</code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p>For anything that&#39;s installable (that is, a package folder, tarball,
tarball url, name@tag, name@version, or name), this command will fetch
it to the cache, and then copy the tarball to the current working
directory as <code>&lt;name&gt;-&lt;version&gt;.tgz</code>, and then write the filenames out to
stdout.</p>
<p>If the same package is specified multiple times, then the file will be
overwritten the second time.</p>
<p>If no arguments are supplied, then npm packs the current package folder.</p>
