Until then, you won't get much out 43of trying to use this on the CLI. 44 45As part of this change, the npm CLI now sends scrubbed and cryptographically 46anonymized metadata about your dependency tree to your configured registry, to 47allow notifying you about the existence of critical security flaws. For details 48about how the CLI protects your privacy when it shares this metadata, see `npm 49help audit`, or [read the docs for `npm audit` 50online](https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/release-next/doc/cli/npm-audit.md).

You can 1135even do it from the CLI. In fact, you have to, for the time being: 1136 1137``` 1138npm profile enable-tfa 1139``` 1140 1141With the default two-factor authentication mode you'll be prompted to enter 1142a one-time password when logging in, when publishing and when modifying access rights to 1143your modules. 1144 1145### TOKEN MANAGEMENT 1146 1147You can now create, list and delete authentication tokens from the comfort 1148of the command line. Authentication tokens created this way can have NEW 1149restrictions placed on them. For instance, you can create a `read-only` 1150token to give to your CI. It will be able to download your private modules 1151but it won't be able to publish or modify modules. You can also create 1152tokens that can only be used from certain network addresses. This way you 1153can lock down access to your corporate VPN or other trusted machines. 1154 1155Deleting tokens isn't new, you could [do it via the 1156website](https://www.npmjs.com/settings/tokens) but now you can do it via 1157the CLI as well. 1158 1159### CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD, SET YOUR EMAIL 1160 1161You can finally change your password from the CLI with `npm profile set 1162password`! You can also update your email address with `npm profile set 1163email <address>`. If you change your email address we'll send you a new 1164verification email so you verify that its yours. 1165 1166### AND EVERYTHING ELSE ON YOUR PROFILE 1167 1168You can also update all of the other attributes of your profile that 1169previously you could only update via the website: `fullname`, `homepage`, 1170`freenode`, `twitter` and `github`. 1171 1172### AVAILABLE STAND ALONE 1173 1174All of these features were implemented in a stand alone library, so if you 1175have use for them in your own project you can find them in 1176[npm-profile](https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm-profile) on the registry. 1177There's also a little mini-cli written just for it at 1178[npm-profile-cli](https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm-profile-cli).

All of those should be back in working condition 2042now. 2043 2044There's another shiny thing you might wanna know about: npm has a Canary release 2045now! The `npm5` experiment we did during our beta proved to be incredibly 2046successful: users were able to have a tight feedback loop between reports and 2047getting the bugfixes they needed, and the CLI team was able to roll out 2048experimental patches and have the community try them out right away. So we want 2049to keep doing that. 2050 2051From now on, you'll be able to install the 'npm canary' with `npm i -g npmc`. 2052This release will be a separate binary (`npmc`. Because canary. Get it?), which 2053will update independently of the main CLI. Most of the time, this will track 2054`release-next` or something close to it. We might occasionally toss experimental 2055branches in there to see if our more adventurous users run into anything 2056interesting with it. For example, the current canary (`npmc@5.0.1-canary.6`) 2057includes an [experimental multiproc 2058branch](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/16633) that parallelizes tarball 2059extraction across multiple processes. 2060 2061If you find any issues while running the canary version, please report them and 2062let us know it came from `npmc`! It would be tremendously helpful, and finding 2063things early is a huge reason to have it there. Happy hacking! 2064 2065### A NOTE ABOUT THE ISSUE TRACKER 2066 2067Just a heads up: We're preparing to do a massive cleanup of the issue tracker. 2068It's been a long time since it was something we could really keep up with, and 2069we didn't have a process for dealing with it that could actually be sustainable. 2070 2071We're still sussing the details out, and we'll talk about it more when we're 2072about to do it, but the plan is essentially to close old, abandoned issues and 2073start over.

So now, you'll see something like this: 2099 2100``` 2101$ npm i -g foo bar 2102+ foo@1.2.3 2103+ bar@3.2.1 2104added 234 packages in .005ms 2105``` 2106 2107* [`362f9fd5b`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/362f9fd5bec65301082416b4292b8fe3eb7f824a) 2108 [#16899](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/16899) 2109 For every package that is given as an argument to install, print the name and 2110 version that was actually installed. 2111 ([@rmg](https://github.com/rmg)) 2112 2113### OTHER BUGFIXES 2114 2115* [`a47593a98`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/a47593a98a402143081d7077d2ac677d13083010) 2116 [#16835](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/16835) 2117 Fix a crash while installing with `--no-shrinkwrap`. 2118 ([@jacknagel](https://github.com/jacknagel)) 2119 2120### DOC UPDATES 2121 2122* [`89e0cb816`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/89e0cb8165dd9c3c7ac74d531617f367099608f4) 2123 [#16818](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/16818) 2124 Fixes a spelling error in the docs.

See below for all the deets! 2248 2249### Breaking Changes 2250 2251* Existing npm caches will no longer be used: you will have to redownload any cached packages. There is no tool or intention to reuse old caches. ([#15666](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15666)) 2252 2253* `npm install ./packages/subdir` will now create a symlink instead of a regular installation. `file://path/to/tarball.tgz` will not change -- only directories are symlinked. ([#15900](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15900)) 2254 2255* npm will now scold you if you capitalize its name. seriously it will fight you. 2256 2257* [npm will `--save` by default now](https://twitter.com/maybekatz/status/859229741676625920). Additionally, `package-lock.json` will be automatically created unless an `npm-shrinkwrap.json` exists. ([#15666](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15666)) 2258 2259* Git dependencies support semver through `user/repo#semver:^1.2.3` ([#15308](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15308)) ([#15666](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15666)) ([@sankethkatta](https://github.com/sankethkatta)) 2260 2261* Git dependencies with `prepare` scripts will have their `devDependencies` installed, and `npm install` run in their directory before being packed. 2262 2263* `npm cache` commands have been rewritten and don't really work anything like they did before. ([#15666](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15666)) 2264 2265* `--cache-min` and `--cache-max` have been deprecated. ([#15666](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15666)) 2266 2267* Running npm while offline will no longer insist on retrying network requests. npm will now immediately fall back to cache if possible, or fail. ([#15666](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15666)) 2268 2269* package locks no longer exclude `optionalDependencies` that failed to build. This means package-lock.json and npm-shrinkwrap.json should now be cross-platform. ([#15900](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15900)) 2270 2271* If you generated your package lock against registry A, and you switch to registry B, npm will now try to [install the packages from registry B, instead of A](https://twitter.com/maybekatz/status/862834964932435969). If you want to use different registries for different packages, use scope-specific registries (`npm config set @myscope:registry=https://myownregist.ry/packages/`). Different registries for different unscoped packages are not supported anymore. 2272 2273* Shrinkwrap and package-lock no longer warn and exit without saving the lockfile. 2274 2275* Local tarballs can now only be installed if they have a file extensions `.tar`, `.tar.gz`, or `.tgz`. 2276 2277* A new loglevel, `notice`, has been added and set as default. 2278 2279* One binary to rule them all: `./cli.js` has been removed in favor of `./bin/npm-cli.js`. In case you were doing something with `./cli.js` itself. ([#12096](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/12096)) ([@watilde](https://github.com/watilde)) 2280 2281* Stub file removed ([#16204](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/16204)) ([@watilde](https://github.com/watilde)) 2282 2283* The "extremely legacy" `_token` couchToken has been removed. ([#12986](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/12986)) 2284 2285### Feature Summary 2286 2287#### Installer changes 2288 2289* A new, standardised lockfile feature meant for cross-package-manager compatibility (`package-lock.json`), and a new format and semantics for shrinkwrap. ([#16441](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/16441)) 2290 2291* `--save` is no longer necessary. All installs will be saved by default. You can prevent saving with `--no-save`. Installing optional and dev deps is unchanged: use `-D/--save-dev` and `-O/--save-optional` if you want them saved into those fields instead. Note that since npm@3, npm will automatically update npm-shrinkwrap.json when you save: this will also be true for `package-lock.json`. ([#15666](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15666)) 2292 2293* Installing a package directory now ends up creating a symlink and does the Right Thing™ as far as saving to and installing from the package lock goes. If you have a monorepo, this might make things much easier to work with, and probably a lot faster too. �� ([#15900](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15900)) 2294 2295* Project-level (toplevel) `preinstall` scripts now run before anything else, and can modify `node_modules` before the CLI reads it. 2296 2297* Two new scripts have been added, `prepack` and `postpack`, which will run on both `npm pack` and `npm publish`, but NOT on `npm install` (without arguments). Combined with the fact that `prepublishOnly` is run before the tarball is generated, this should round out the general story as far as putzing around with your code before publication. 2298 2299* Git dependencies with `prepare` scripts will now [have their devDependencies installed, and their prepare script executed](https://twitter.com/maybekatz/status/860363896443371520) as if under `npm pack`. 2300 2301* Git dependencies now support semver-based matching: `npm install git://github.com/npm/npm#semver:^5` (#15308, #15666) 2302 2303* `node-gyp` now supports `node-gyp.cmd` on Windows ([#14568](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/14568)) 2304 2305* npm no longer blasts your screen with the whole installed tree. Instead, you'll see a summary report of the install that is much kinder on your shell real-estate. Specially for large projects. ([#15914](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/15914)): 2306``` 2307$ npm install 2308npm added 125, removed 32, updated 148 and moved 5 packages in 5.032s. 2309$ 2310``` 2311 2312* `--parseable` and `--json` now work more consistently across various commands, particularly `install` and `ls`. 2313 2314* Indentation is now [detected and preserved](https://twitter.com/maybekatz/status/860690502932340737) for `package.json`, `package-lock.json`, and `npm-shrinkwrap.json`. If the package lock is missing, it will default to `package.json`'s current indentation. 2315 2316#### Publishing 2317 2318* New [publishes will now include *both* `sha512`](https://twitter.com/maybekatz/status/863201943082065920) and `sha1` checksums. Versions of npm from 5 onwards will use the strongest algorithm available to verify downloads. [npm/npm-registry-client#157](https://github.com/npm/npm-registry-client/pull/157) 2319 2320#### Cache Rewrite! 2321 2322We've been talking about rewriting the cache for a loooong time. So here it is. 2323Lots of exciting stuff ahead. The rewrite will also enable some exciting future 2324features, but we'll talk about those when they're actually in the works. #15666 2325is the main PR for all these changes. Additional PRs/commits are linked inline. 2326 2327* Package metadata, package download, and caching infrastructure replaced. 2328 2329* It's a bit faster. [Hopefully it will be noticeable](https://twitter.com/maybekatz/status/865393382260056064). �� 2330 2331* With the shrinkwrap and package-lock changes, tarballs will be looked up in the cache by content address (and verified with it). 2332 2333* Corrupted cache entries will [automatically be removed and re-fetched](https://twitter.com/maybekatz/status/854933138182557696) on integrity check failure. 2334 2335* npm CLI now supports tarball hashes with any hash function supported by Node.js. That is, it will [use `sha512` for tarballs from registries that send a `sha512` checksum as the tarball hash](https://twitter.com/maybekatz/status/858137093624573953). Publishing with `sha512` is added by [npm/npm-registry-client#157](https://github.com/npm/npm-registry-client/pull/157) and may be backfilled by the registry for older entries. 2336 2337* Remote tarball requests are now cached. This means that even if you're missing the `integrity` field in your shrinkwrap or package-lock, npm will be able to install from the cache. 2338 2339* Downloads for large packages are streamed in and out of disk. npm is now able to install packages of """any""" size without running out of memory. Support for publishing them is pending (due to registry limitations). 2340 2341* [Automatic fallback-to-offline mode](https://twitter.com/maybekatz/status/854176565587984384). npm will seamlessly use your cache if you are offline, or if you lose access to a particular registry (for example, if you can no longer access a private npm repo, or if your git host is unavailable). 2342 2343* A new `--prefer-offline` option will make npm skip any conditional requests (304 checks) for stale cache data, and *only* hit the network if something is missing from the cache. 2344 2345* A new `--prefer-online` option that will force npm to revalidate cached data (with 304 checks), ignoring any staleness checks, and refreshing the cache with revalidated, fresh data. 2346 2347* A new `--offline` option will force npm to use the cache or exit. It will error with an `ENOTCACHED` code if anything it tries to install isn't already in the cache. 2348 2349* A new `npm cache verify` command that will garbage collect your cache, reducing disk usage for things you don't need (-handwave-), and will do full integrity verification on both the index and the content. This is also hooked into `npm doctor` as part of its larger suite of checking tools. 2350 2351* The new cache is *very* fault tolerant and supports concurrent access. 2352 * Multiple npm processes will not corrupt a shared cache. 2353 * Corrupted data will not be installed. Data is checked on both insertion and extraction, and treated as if it were missing if found to be corrupted. I will literally bake you a cookie if you manage to corrupt the cache in such a way that you end up with the wrong data in your installation (installer bugs notwithstanding). 2354 * `npm cache clear` is no longer useful for anything except clearing up disk space. 2355 2356* Package metadata is cached separately per registry and package type: you can't have package name conflicts between locally-installed packages, private repo packages, and public repo packages. Identical tarball data will still be shared/deduplicated as long as their hashes match. 2357 2358* HTTP cache-related headers and features are "fully" (lol) supported for both metadata and tarball requests -- if you have your own registry, you can define your own cache settings the CLI will obey! 2359 2360* `prepublishOnly` now runs *before* the tarball to publish is created, after `prepare` has run. 2361
