NAME

       npm-adduser - Add a registry user account

   Synopsis
         npm adduser

         aliases: login, add-user

       Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.

   Description
       Create  or  verify  a  user  named  <username>  in  the  specified  registry, and save the
       credentials to the .npmrc file. If no registry is specified, the default registry will  be
       used (see npm help config).

       The username, password, and email are read in from prompts.

       To reset your password, go to https://www.npmjs.com/forgot

       To change your email address, go to https://www.npmjs.com/email-edit

       You  may  use this command multiple times with the same user account to authorize on a new
       machine.  When authenticating on a new machine, the username, password and  email  address
       must all match with your existing record.

       npm login is an alias to adduser and behaves exactly the same way.

   Configuration
   registry
       • Default: "https://registry.npmjs.org/"

       • Type: URL

       The base URL of the npm registry.

   scope
       • Default: the scope of the current project, if any, or ""

       • Type: String

       Associate an operation with a scope for a scoped registry.

       Useful when logging in to or out of a private registry:

         # log in, linking the scope to the custom registry
         npm login --scope=@mycorp --registry=https://registry.mycorp.com

         # log out, removing the link and the auth token
         npm logout --scope=@mycorp

       This  will  cause @mycorp to be mapped to the registry for future installation of packages
       specified according to the pattern @mycorp/package.

       This will also cause npm init to create a scoped package.

         # accept all defaults, and create a package named "@foo/whatever",
         # instead of just named "whatever"
         npm init --scope=@foo --yes

   auth-type
       • Default: "legacy"

       • Type: "legacy", "web", "sso", "saml", "oauth", or "webauthn"

       NOTE: auth-type values "sso", "saml", "oauth", and "webauthn" will be removed in a  future
       version.

       What authentication strategy to use with login.
