NAME

       npm-pack - Create a tarball from a package

SYNOPSIS

       npm.commands.pack([packages,] callback)

DESCRIPTION

       For  anything  that´s  installable  (that  is,  a  package  folder,  tarball, tarball url,
       name@tag, name@version, or name), this command will fetch it to the cache, and  then  copy
       the  tarball  to the current working directory as <name>-<version>.tgz, and then write the
       filenames out to stdout.

       If the same package is specified multiple times, then the file  will  be  overwritten  the
       second time.

       If no arguments are supplied, then npm packs the current package folder.
