NAME

       npm-deprecate - Deprecate a version of a package

SYNOPSIS

       npm deprecate <name>[@<version>] <message>

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  will  update  the npm registry entry for a package, providing a deprecation
       warning to all who attempt to install it.

       It works on version ranges as well as specific versions, so  you  can  do  something  like
       this:

           npm deprecate my-thing@"< 0.2.3" "critical bug fixed in v0.2.3"

       Note  that you must be the package owner to deprecate something. See the owner and adduser
       help topics.

       To un-deprecate a package, specify an empty string ("") for the message argument.
