NAME

       npm-explore - Browse an installed package

SYNOPSIS

       npm explore <name>[@<version>] [ -- <cmd>]

DESCRIPTION

       Spawn a subshell in the directory of the installed package specified.

       If  a  command  is  specified,  then  it  is  run  in the subshell, which then immediately
       terminates.

       This is particularly handy in the case of git submodules in the node_modules folder:

           npm explore some-dependency -- git pull origin master

       Note that the package is not automatically rebuilt afterwards,  so  be  sure  to  use  npm
       rebuild <pkg> if you make any changes.

CONFIGURATION

       •   Default: SHELL environment variable, or "bash" on Posix, or "cmd" on Windows
