NAME

       npm-unpublish - Remove a package from the registry

SYNOPSIS

       npm unpublish [<@scope>/]<pkg>[@<version>]

WARNING

       It is generally considered bad behavior to remove versions of a library that others are depending on!

       Consider using the deprecate command instead, if your intent is to encourage users to upgrade.

       There is plenty of room on the registry.

DESCRIPTION

       This removes a package version from the registry, deleting its entry and removing the tarball.

       If  no  version  is specified, or if all versions are removed then the root package entry is removed from
       the registry entirely.

       Even if a package version is unpublished, that specific name and version combination can never be reused.
       In order to publish the package again, a new version number must be used.

       The scope is optional and follows the usual rules for npm help 7 npm-scope.
