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
