⚠️ BREAKING CHANGES
npm
now outputs some json errors on stdout. Previously npm
would output all json formatted errors on stderr, making it difficult to parse as the stderr stream usually has logs already written to it. In the future, npm
will differentiate between errors and crashes. Errors, such as E404
and ERESOLVE
, will be handled and will continue to be output on stdout. In the case of a crash, npm
will log the error as usual but will not attempt to display it as json, even in --json
mode. Moving a case from the category of an error to a crash will not be considered a breaking change. For more information see npm/rfcs#482.
npm config set
will no longer accept deprecated or invalid config options.
timing
and loglevel
changestiming
has been removed as a value for --loglevel
--timing
will show timing information regardless of --loglevel
, except when --silent
deprecate boolean install flags in favor of --install-strategy
deprecate --global-style, --global now sets --install-strategy=shallow
deprecate --legacy-bundling, now sets --install-strategy=nested
npm will no longer attempt to modify ownership of files it creates
this package no longer attempts to change file ownership automatically

⚠️ BREAKING CHANGES
npm pack
now follows a strict order of operations when applying ignore rules. If a files array is present in the package.json, then rules in .gitignore and .npmignore files from the root will be ignored.
--timing
file changes:When run with the --timing
flag, npm
now writes timing data to a file alongside the debug log data, respecting the logs-dir
option and falling back to <CACHE\>/_logs/
dir, instead of directly inside the cache directory.
The timing file data is no longer newline delimited JSON, and instead each run will create a uniquely named <ID\>-timing.json
file, with the <ID\>
portion being the same as the debug log.
Finally, the data inside the file now has three top level keys, metadata
, timers, and
unfinishedTimers` instead of everything being a top level key.
