- <pre lang="bash"><code>npm doctor
- </code></pre>
- <p>Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.</p>
- <h3 id="description">Description</h3>
- <p><code>npm doctor</code> runs a set of checks to ensure that your npm installation has
- what it needs to manage your JavaScript packages. npm is mostly a
- standalone tool, but it does have some basic requirements that must be met:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>Node.js and git must be executable by npm.</li>
- <li>The primary npm registry, <code>registry.npmjs.com</code>, or another service that
- uses the registry API, is available.</li>
- <li>The directories that npm uses, <code>node_modules</code> (both locally and
- globally), exist and can be written by the current user.</li>
- <li>The npm cache exists, and the package tarballs within it aren’t corrupt.</li>
- </ul>
- <p>Without all of these working properly, npm may not work properly. Many
- issues are often attributable to things that are outside npm’s code base,
- so <code>npm doctor</code> confirms that the npm installation is in a good state.</p>
- <p>Also, in addition to this, there are also very many issue reports due to
- using old versions of npm. Since npm is constantly improving, running
- <code>npm@latest</code> is better than an old version.</p>
- <p><code>npm doctor</code> verifies the following items in your environment, and if there
- are any recommended changes, it will display them.</p>
- <h4 id="npm-ping"><code>npm ping</code></h4>
- <p>By default, npm installs from the primary npm registry,
- <code>registry.npmjs.org</code>. <code>npm doctor</code> hits a special ping endpoint within the
- registry. This can also be checked with <code>npm ping</code>. If this check fails,
- you may be using a proxy that needs to be configured, or may need to talk
- to your IT staff to get access over HTTPS to <code>registry.npmjs.org</code>.</p>
- <p>This check is done against whichever registry you’ve configured (you can
- see what that is by running <code>npm config get registry</code>), and if you’re using
- a private registry that doesn’t support the <code>/whoami</code> endpoint supported by
- the primary registry, this check may fail.</p>
- <h4 id="npm--v"><code>npm -v</code></h4>
- <p>While Node.js may come bundled with a particular version of npm, it’s the
- policy of the CLI team that we recommend all users run <code>npm@latest</code> if they
- can. As the CLI is maintained by a small team of contributors, there are
- only resources for a single line of development, so npm’s own long-term
- support releases typically only receive critical security and regression
- fixes. The team believes that the latest tested version of npm is almost
- always likely to be the most functional and defect-free version of npm.</p>
- <h4 id="node--v"><code>node -v</code></h4>
- <p>For most users, in most circumstances, the best version of Node will be the
- latest long-term support (LTS) release. Those of you who want access to new
- ECMAscript features or bleeding-edge changes to Node’s standard library may
- be running a newer version, and some may be required to run an older
- version of Node because of enterprise change control policies. That’s OK!
- But in general, the npm team recommends that most users run Node.js LTS.</p>
- <h4 id="npm-config-get-registry"><code>npm config get registry</code></h4>
- <p>You may be installing from private package registries for your project or
- company. That’s great! Others may be following tutorials or StackOverflow
- questions in an effort to troubleshoot problems you may be having.
- Sometimes, this may entail changing the registry you’re pointing at. This
- part of <code>npm doctor</code> just lets you, and maybe whoever’s helping you with
- support, know that you’re not using the default registry.</p>
- <h4 id="which-git"><code>which git</code></h4>
- <p>While it’s documented in the README, it may not be obvious that npm needs
- Git installed to do many of the things that it does. Also, in some cases
- – especially on Windows – you may have Git set up in such a way that it’s
- not accessible via your <code>PATH</code> so that npm can find it. This check ensures
- that Git is available.</p>
- <h4 id="permissions-checks">Permissions checks</h4>
- <ul>
- <li>Your cache must be readable and writable by the user running npm.</li>
- <li>Global package binaries must be writable by the user running npm.</li>
- <li>Your local <code>node_modules</code> path, if you’re running <code>npm doctor</code> with a
- project directory, must be readable and writable by the user running npm.</li>
- </ul>
- <h4 id="validate-the-checksums-of-cached-packages">Validate the checksums of cached packages</h4>
- <p>When an npm package is published, the publishing process generates a
- checksum that npm uses at install time to verify that the package didn’t
- get corrupted in transit. <code>npm doctor</code> uses these checksums to validate the
- package tarballs in your local cache (you can see where that cache is
- located with <code>npm config get cache</code>). In the event that there are corrupt
- packages in your cache, you should probably run <code>npm cache clean -f</code> and
- reset the cache.</p>
