NAME

       npm-prefix - Display prefix

   Synopsis
         npm prefix [-g]

       Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.

   Description
       Print the local prefix to standard output. This is the closest parent directory to contain
       a package.json file or node_modules directory, unless -g is also specified.

       If -g is specified, this will be the value of the global prefix. See npm help  config  for
       more detail.

   Example
         npm prefix
         /usr/local/projects/foo

         npm prefix -g
         /usr/local

   global
       • Default: false

       • Type: Boolean

       Operates in "global" mode, so that packages are installed into the prefix  folder  instead
       of  the  current  working  directory.  See npm help folders for more on the differences in
       behavior.

       • packages are installed into the {prefix}/lib/node_modules folder, instead of the current
         working directory.

       • bin files are linked to {prefix}/bin

       • man pages are linked to {prefix}/share/man
